It seems like the winds of SwordsMaster's life are about to take him to Dallas for a few months. So I need tips: Bars, restaurants, places to go out to, theatres, opera houses, whatever. What does a man do on weekends?

I would be interested in doing some rock climbing, and also was thinking of doing an advanced driving course if such is available. Also I need to get a motorbike license and don't know the process for doing so across the pond. Can anyone shed some light in my darkness?

Cheers!

Official Texas thread! How many forums can lay claim to that?

If you have a driver's license from another country, you shouldn't need anything over here. I think you are allowed to use your current license for up to a year. I assume your current license has you down as motorcycle rated?

I can't really help you out with Dallas, apart from the Cowboys and strip clubs I don't know too much about the city. I'm more familiar with Austin and San Antonio.

Strip clubs?

I have a car license from home, but no motorcycle. I was in the middle of getting one, and now have to go to Dallas for work...

I don't really know anything about the Dallas area so I couldn't help there.

You seem to travel a lot Swords. May I, if you don't mind me asking, inquire which career allows a man to see so many places? Last time you were posting I thought you were in Africa?

I was :) I returned from 6 months in Morocco in June, been travelling within Europe for a bit, and about 2 hours ago disembarked in the burning hot flatland of Texas. And the customs officer took my ham. A WMD suspect, no doubt.

I work as a telecommunications consultant for 3G and now LTE technologies. Not as glamorous as you thought, eh?
