Evenings is much like anywhere else - dinner, drinks, clubs (if you want - not my scene!), shopping (malls are open till late here), even skiing if you fancy it...
Out and about you're fine wearing anything really. Shorts and t shirts absolutely finest places though some restaurants don't like shorts & flip-flops (anything that could be considered beachwear, basically)
Office wear is much like the UK - depending on where you work people wear anything from jeans up to full suits. I usually wear a suit but my shirt sleeves get rolled up by 10am, the jacket hangs off my chair, and a tie stays in my desk drawer unless I have clients visiting!
Taxis usually won't take amex but most should take mastercard/visa. Hotels and restaurants are more amenable.
I'm happy to give food recommendations if needed! Where are you going to be staying/working?
That is properly hot.

Still better than London
Everywhere's got A/C so it's fine. I barely notice it and still spend half my life wearing a hoodie. Bit hot for the beach though.

The dancing fountains at Dubai Mall are a good watch every half hour in the evenings - right at the base of Burj Khalifa.
Worth specifying "local water please" when ordering at a restaurant - it'll always be bottled but the local stuff costs about 10% what they'll charge for evian or san pelligrino!
The place has put me off ever going back to Dubai at all.
Two bed suite.
A nice tally of air miles and this trip will get me to gold status on Marriott rewards.
Free bar here I come ;0)
Let me know if you have a free night in Dubai - would be good to have a mini-Fretboard meetup in the Middle East!
ehhhhhhh a bit of a fanny fest up here I'm the only bloke in here.
