......checked the BBC, Khaleej Times and Guld News weather forecasts - they seem to be saying different things. What's a reliable weather forecast website here? Or does it rain so rarely no one really needs to predict the weather? I think someone on here is gonna tell me that their cat is a good rain predictor. TIA

ETA - And with that post, I've just hit the 1000 mark. Would hate to tell DH how much time I've been spending on EW...

It's a vanilla sponge cake, Wikkid speciality, 2 layers round one at the bottom and a Princess dome cake at the top. Freshly made yesterday I've been told. At the moment, we are thinking of taking off the Princess dome cake and reserve it for the party next week (let's hope the rain doesn't last into next weekend), so that we have it for display and cake cutting pictures. Then cut up the bottom layer for her classmates. It's sort of a plan. If it rains again next Friday, I'm going to have to give up.

It's done. I've cancelled it already. I couldn't leave it too late otherwise there would be parents and entertainer turning up in the rain....all dressed up and no party to go!! We think it would be too wet and muddy in the park tomorrow morning for it to be fun for the children.

I wouldnt cancel. It is only a 20% chance of rain, and doubt it will be heavy if anything. http://beta.weather.com/weather/map/interactive/Dubai+United+Arab+Emirates+AEXX0004 This has been fairly accurate during the last week.

Guess you could send the cake to school for your DD... I'm sure if the weather is rotten people will be in touch if they're concerned it won't be on anyway... I hope your DD isn't too disappointed tho :(

Thanks SS. Can't believe it.....I've just had to email everyone and sms people to tell them it's postponed 'til next week. I hope no one turns up at the park 2mr if they don't get the message in time. I had a Princess cake made especially and now what am I going to do with the cake that feeds 40 people? Lots of cucumber and carrot sticks going to waste.... DH thought about having it in the apartment, but we decided it's not really going to work, also I had visions of people and entertainers turning up at the park and also at our apartment, or getting lost and not arriving in time.....
