Am determined to try and loose three stone so am trying the Paleo diet and been on it two weeks and sometimes i have lost 3 kilo other days 2 kilos! It is quite demanding on the cooking skills, no quick fixes, so not really my thing but getting there. Uses lots of coconut products ie oil and shredded coconut, no carbs or pulses or legumes, so very different if used to wholegrain living! love to hear from anybody elses experiences on it and the ususal where to buy things from, like almond flour!

Thank you ladies for your replies. Yes its because i have property in the uk, so income from rent and capital gains tax is my concern. But these new rules will put a different perspective on things so guess we will be waiting with baited breath to see if they are implemented.

This has been bothering me - do we as a wife (living here- not working) husband working here, have to make sure we (wife) are only in the UK for the 91 days or less a year, to ensure we are not liable for uk tax? Thanks in advance.

Mollydxb thank you,Yes I was thinking that dragonmart would be quite reasonable as wanted quite a few done. But am willing to try a few places to see what quality and price they come in at. Is that framers in Plant street, Satwa ? Pinks Thank you for your recommendation also, its good to know about him as looking to get a large canvas done if possible about 2m by 50cm, so will give him a try .

Hi lax2dxb Thank you for asking, we went to Dr Petherbridge , he was really kind with Mum as she is terrified of doctors. She is weak but hopefully on the road to recovery .

I had some lapiz earings made, I chose the stones and they made them, for pierced ears, but sure they will make for clip ons. It was in the gold and diamond park, al quoz. Sorry dont know the name of jeweller but the location was as you go in the main front enterance, keep right and just along on the right probably not many shops in, he has a big display of lots of semi precious stones. Hope you are successful.

Thank you sooo much ladies for all your ideas, its making it less stressful all ready. 'Shaks' Thank you for your kind offer for loan of seat walking stick, that reminded me think she has one so must bring it 'Trigg Beach' will look out for more details of how you have got on with your parents here in Dubai. I will look into getting a Dubai disabled sticker, thank you for pointing that out, saved me getting fined and Mother getting stressed! All the ideas of places to go are great think we will have a super time. Have bought a step already so Mum can get in and out of the 4x4, shes only little !!!!

Purple31, You were really lucky getting a villa for a lot less, how did you do it?I am looking on the Palm also . I often think about going in with a lower offer but often its probably the agent who wants the biggest commission, so there is no incentive to get the landlord to accept a lower rent from client. If you have any tips on how best to do this please can you email me at beadinteriors at hotmail com. I would be eternally grateful.
