Sorry Bunny, but I've no idea as to the home schooling and dancing classes. Re your dogs - please be aware that dogs are not appreciated here in Oman so yes I would say it would be better if you took them out to the bondoo for walking, well away from people who are out walking and do not want to even be approached by them let alone sniffed etc. Im a dog owner and they are very small but they are kept in the garden because of the cultural sensitivities involved with them. People will tell you oh its ok blah blah blah, we walk our dogs on the beach blah blah blah but the reality is that walking a dog on the beach is illegal and people only realize this when they are in trouble because their dog has jumped up on someone who would rather it hadn't done so. I'm British with an Omani family so can see this from both points of view so all I will say is this. Omanis are wonderful and welcoming people who are happy to live alongside people of many a different nationality and not really ask for much in return respect or consideration wise. So when it comes to your dogs who I'm sure are lovely and well trained :) - please do not walk them amongst the general population. I know people walk their dogs on The Wave, but I think the locals who live there (some of my animal loving lot included) aren't that bothered about the dogs as long as they are under control and their daily offerings are taken home in a bag or put in the appropriate doggy doodah bins. eta - can I ask what schools your girls are on the wating list for and what class they would go into? <em>edited by DesertRose1958 on 08/06/2013</em>
