Yes. I've had a few jobs done and been happy with all of them. All minor repairs/alterations. I'm so happy that I don't have to go to the mall to get something done! They are quite quick too which is great. :)

Does anyone know when the Choithrams will be opening? They're still in the early construction stages, so I'd say at least 3-4 months.

Hi Patty, Little woods in downtown? Thats good! there is one more opening in executive towers in bay avenue. Its called The learning tree nursery. you can check that one too. I only have one kid, about to turn 1. This is open now, loads of kids inside - look really nice. The whole Bay Avenue looks really good, especially now you can park outside and the little play park that is opening, ET is looking alright :)

Another new restaurant opened up - Bamyan Afghan Restaurant in Bay Avenue building Executive Towers. First time I have tried Afghan cuisine, was very impressed and not all meat dishes like I expected.

Hi Ladies, Just letting the ladies with kids in ET know i have seen a lot of nanny's letting kids play in the unfinished playgrounds out the back, this is really dangerous, its not finished, there is work still going on and a lot of workmen in the area. Not mention it is filthy as no one seems to be cleaning up the rubbish at the moment. Please don't let them play there it isn't safe.

I got a flyer through the door last night to say that there is a new nursery opening in Bay Avenue in January 2014 and accepting registrations from November 2013. I can't remember the specific details but I can try and post them up if you want once I get home. I also got a second flyer about a yoga studio opening in one of the podium villas as well.

Hello lovely ladies, I'm starting to train with a trainer, both the trainer and I are in business bay. She charges 250 per session but if two people train together it will be 150 per person. She can come to us and if we like we can train at her place aswell. She does yoga aswell as gym workouts. If any one is interested please let me know:-)

Hi there. At the moment most children play on the podium level which is great for their bikes, but they are building a new area which has two play areas for children a skate park and two outdoor gyms with a running track. Around a massive car park they are working very hard on it and I'd say it will be up and running for the winter which is fab. Mary 777 let me know if you daughter still in need of friend we are in tower G I did send ya a text but maybe you where on vacation x

Hello all, We are thinking about moving to Executive Towers, I'd like to know if there are kids play areas there? Like mini parks with swings etc? I know JBR has them scattered around the promenade level, was wondering if Exec towers does too? DD is 1 year old and becoming quite active, so we'd like to move somewhere with play areas/parks Thanks!

Hi, I moved into executive towers 3 weeks ago from the uk. I too find it very sad to see these children spending their days in a corridor. I have 2 children, a boy age 12 & a 7 yr old girl. They are a bit nervous to go and play around the podium level and it seems to only be the really young kids playing there anyway. Is there any other children of similar ages living here? My children would live to be making new friends. :) Hi ukmum13, I have a 6 year old daughter and she would love to make a new friend. I live in tower g. Call me on 0562068034 and we can arrange to meet with the kids . X

I am only adding to this out of concern after seeing dentro's post about all the nannies/maids hanging out in the corridor at spinneys. I too see this all the time and it makes me so sad :( At the park further on under the bridge a little girl was crying while her brother rode around on his bike and all the nanny did was shout at her to stop crying. An hour or so later as I was walking back with my girls to stop off at spinneys on the way home...this particular nanny was pushing the stroller with the little girl still crying her eyes out and clearly distressed as the nanny was pacing up and down with the little boy nowhere to be seen! I can only assume she lost him, as she was freaking out a bit. I sincerely hope she found the little boy but this nanny was horrible to those children and I just felt for them..if only the parents knew :( Totally agree, it is so frustrating as a non resident but an office worker, quickly popping into Spinneys for some lunch having to climb over toys, move quickly out the way of an out of control scooter, etc .... I honestly can't believe these maids can't take these children somewhere else?
