Just to confirm the forum is only for women and men pretending to be women will be banned upon discovery. Also this IS a public forum and can be read by anyone- hence why posting of personal contact details should not be practised. Please bear this in mind when you are posting.

Have you checked out the FAQs on here? Look in the left hand menu and you will see the category...here is the link to the Ramadan Guide http://www.expatwoman.com/dubai/monthly_faqs_Ramadan_6290.aspx Most Dubai topics are covered in there by our experts and new ones are added frequently- we're building up a comprehensive library.

I don't think you are going to get this information- those kind of companies are franchised out to the large family run companies here like Al Futtaim, Al Shaya etc and they don't release figures at all. That is why you aren't having much luck with this. HTH

There are Coffee Mornings but there are also ExpatMums and Tots mornings too- one either end of town. Would you like to meet new friends, have a coffee and bring the kids as well? Then join in with ExpatMums & Tots they meet weekly Sunday 10am-12 Ibn Battuta Mall Tuesday 10am-12 PlayNation Mirdif City Centre http://www.expatwoman.com/dubai/whats_on_mum_and_tots.aspx Meet ups are not to be arranged through the board as there are safety implications. Come along to an organised event- meet people swap numbers and off you go :) <em>edited by The EW Guide on 09/03/2011</em>

Please do get a licence- it is very simple and will avoid any unneccessary complications for you- our guide to how to do it is here: http://www.expatwoman.com/dubai/monthly_faqs_EW_guide_to_getting_an_alcohol_license_4649.aspx It's not about that you don't need a licence to buy from other Emirates- you do need one to have alcohol in your home here in Dubai.

Ok have double checked for you- if from the home page you click Dubai and then come to the Forum and come onto the Qatar one- yes it will have the Dubai side menu as you are technically in Dubai :) If you click Qatar from the home menu and click onto forum- you will be in Qatar- does that make sense?

We are all getting the Qatar menu across the top and down the side here in Dubai when you click on the Qatar button from the home page- we will look into it for you. http://www.expatwoman.com/qatar/default.aspx is the home page for Qatar- try it from there. There should not be any posts lost during the migration...was it this thread? http://www.expatwoman.com/qatar/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=98779 maybe it had been deleted for some reason? Can you remember who posted on the thread so you could check by username posts?

Thanks for your feedback ladies- all comments taken on board. This is just the first step in a series of new initiatives and we plan to bring further, significant improvements to site content over the next couple of months. With regard to seeing the Dubai site frame, could you please confirm that you are going into the site through an ExpatWoman.com/Qatar link and not ExpatWoman.com/Dubai. Many thanks for your support....
