Im looking for something like a silver (not silver plate) dhow or silver coffee pot as a gift. Any recommendations for a good silver shop in Dubai? Thankyou.

There was an ad in the classifieds section of 7 Days recently asking if anyone had spotted a beautiful dog called Casper who has been missing in Mirdiff since March. Casper had a black collar with lights on it when he went missing. Not sure if its the same dog or not but the owner's contact number in the ad is 055 2810345. Fingers crossed :)

Ive been going to Dr Madhu for years and cannot fault him on his professionalism or pricing. He will not advise treatment where it is not warranted. Ive also had root canal performed by him, and as a very nervous dental patient, he has always been very gentle and understanding of my fears.

Union Coop on Al Wasl Road (near Al Thaniya Street) is also a great place to buy fresh fruit and veg at very reasonable prices.

Ive been with Modern Vetinerary for many years now and they have looked after our pets fantastically well. We had to put our dearly loved cat to sleep a year ago and MV staff (Reception and Vet) dealt with it all in such a dignified and sensitive way it was lovely. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Thankyou Daza - my colleague called Noortakaful but they no longer provide medical cover for maids. So how do those of you with live-in maids deal with any maid-related medical issues? Government hospitals? Any insight into local experience on this topic will be much appreciated. Thanks again.

Ive heard of this happening before to a friend who lived in one of the older villas in Jumeirah. On the first occasion, the tiles came up across her living room floor - without breaking - to form what looked like the ridge of a roof. It turned out that the problem was due to trapped air. When workmen came to check the problem, the area under the tiles was completely dry and they were able to remove and relay the tiles - but not without creating a lot of dust !! In fact she called in the workmen again recently when she found some of the tiles in her living area sounded hollow when she walked across them. Workmen confirmed it was the same problem as before. Hopefully it is only trapped air that is causing the tiles in your master bedroom to rise too. <em>edited by Jasmine57 on 19/05/2013</em>

All her wedding photos are in storage in UK so she will be delighted if Portfolio can do something with the photo.

Have a word with Heather at DASA (04 3344545). Apparently DASA is affiliated with Uni-Group in the US so she will be able to advise you on which company would be used to pack your effects in US etc.

Are you Interested in a long fitted strapless off-white satin dress with fishtail effect at back ? Its a Size 12 and looks fab with lots of bling accessories. I bought it from Debenham's (Debut range) and its only been worn once. Email me at pridff at yahoo dot com if you are interested.

I flew RB Dubai-Melbourne via Brunei in November and was really impressed. The staff were helpful and polite throughout the journey, the toilets were always clean, the in-flight entertainment was adequate and the food served up was OK too. Although RB is a dry airline, you can - on the above routing at least - take a bottle on board to consume on board. I asked the check-in staff before boarding and bought a bottle in Dubai duty free which I had to drink before reaching Brunei - not too much of an effort on a 7-8 hour flight! I kept the bottle beside me and the crew happily kept me topped up with ice etc when required. They even had a special shute for disposal of the empty bottle.

I have a lovely long fitted strapless off-white "satin" evening dress with a fishtail at the back which has only been worn once - and which Im thinking of selling. I bought it from Debenhams (Debut range) last year. Its meant to be a Size 14 but I think its more a Size 12. Email me at pridff at yahoo dot com if you are interested.
