One of the bedrooms in my new apartment has a curved window. Floor to ceiling. When I've been out shopping recently I've only ever found straight curtain poles/rods. Where can I find a curved one or one that I can curve ( a flexible one)? Help! Visitors due soon and I need to put the curtains up for their room. Thanks.

Isn't there a Nail Spa IN Marina Mall. I'm sure there is, somewhere near the Etihad shop, if I remember rightly.

........ Vitamin E is good for scars, and you should get the liquid capsules and break them and use the pure vitamin E oil in them to rub into your scar.......... Someone has mentioned this to me before. :) Can i just pick it up from any pharmacy? Does Body Shop do Vitamin E oil? And it is pure vitamin E?

I don't have pets (Dogs/Cats) and so I don't want any trace of pet hair or smell or anything in my new apartment (previous owners had them)....... Can anyone suggest a good professional company that can help with complete sanitisation of the new place. Thanks. P.S. Apologies to any cat/dog lovers. <em>edited by Diamante on 06/01/2011</em>

Yep! All details such as you've mentioned. I use AL Rostamani, (At MOE its just round the corner from the cinema) they have a membership card they give you, which basically makes life easier for them to find your details when you go into make regular payments. They charge 45 dhs for transfer and depending on which bank you bank with in the UK (that you're transferring to) there's normally a recieving charge too. I pay £8 the other end as I don't have their preferred bank (Standard chartered) which they don't charge for receieving. Hope that made sense. :-/ <em>edited by Diamante on 05/01/2011</em>
