For that many people, you need a combination of starters and mains, and just sort it out buffet style :) I've got friends coming over for iftar on Thursday and I'm making potato samosas (Punjabi style with thick pastry), spicy beef pasties, spinach pakoras, shami kebabs (which are patties made from 70% lamb and 30% lentils), chicken biryani, raita and salad. Thats what i was thinking just a buffet style with some sort of biryani or fried rice dish as a main, i can do spring rolls but never tried samosa's. Home made pizzas as they always go down well and all with halal products was going to get some hommus and tabouleh and dip stuffs with some breads, some big salads maybe some fried chicken etc and then also do some deserts. Im always "good idea at the time" just hope its not a disaster Lol

I bought mine in Fida in Satwa. Really mega sized roll and very cheap for the amount on it. Any of the habadashery shops in Satwa should sell it. Thanks will have a trip down after Ramadan :)

Thank you ladies. I don't have bad acne, well, they start bad then they become tiny in a couple of weeks. The thing is my face breaks when i am stressed, which means whenever i have an important occasion i have acne. I remember some long time ago i bought a clear and clear cleanser which was so harsh i would want to cry after each wash. I remembered that while standing in front of all these products yesterday, this is why i bought sebamed cleansing foam. Despite being so mild (as all sebamed products), it tingles while on my face and i cant leave it for the recommended 5 minutes. However, i like it initially. I didn't go with any of the recommendations because it was only "pro-active" last time i checked and this wasn't readily available, but thank you all anyway. I reccomended Pro Activ because i have seen a dermatologist who tells me its not bad enough to warrant any formal treatment, to me its bad enough, i get area breakouts always on my right cheek and they are huge cyst like lumps and they look revolting, there is no set time when they come they just randomly appear. I tried all over the counter remedies and it really was pro activ that worked for me, like i said previously the mask i find the best as i use it as a direct spot treatment and leave it on overnight and they have seriously reduced by morning. You cant buy the toner seperate the only ones you can is a foam face wash and a few other things, the rest is in a kit. Good luck with whatever you try but i think its trial and error and you have to find whats suited to you.

I know TMJ will take it, but since it's got a bit of a bedbug issue, hence my saying contaminated, personally I feel passing the little barstewards on isn't really the right thing to do! Sorry didnt read post properly :(

mainly because its [b'>children involved[/b'> (that's what I think anyway). [b'>He has been taking things too far, can't tell the details and it's revolting anyway[/b'>. Can you clarify for me please? Do you mean children as in you have children together and he wishes to try again for their sake? or Do you mean that the adult site contains images of children? I think you have misread the post they have children together and he wants to make it work for them. Highly unlikely anyone would come on here with the sort of suggestion you are referring to. <em>edited by egg on 30/07/2012</em>

egg- where do you get this from my face is a mess at the moment i have been for a facial but made it worse.. willing to try new things Penny Hi you can get it from any pharmacy here im sure i got mine from the one in MOE the set which has the face wash, toner and replenishing lotion comes with a face mask (i use the face mask as a cream though if i have a bad outbreak, place it on the spot and leave it overnight) the kit was 310 aed i think?

Som people reccomend some dont, however, i use Pro Activ i tried all the others and nothing worked for me, this is the only one that has reduced the redness and cyst like acne spots. I also use bits no7 quick thinking wipes daily morning and night instead of any soap, they are brilliant remove all make up and grime leave my skin feeling lovely, i revert to Pro Activ if i have an outbreak but i dont use it everyday if not needed. Good luck form a fellow sufferer :(

Thanks ladies, Yes i checked dubizzle but im after the large type one with the play area on top for my girl, she needs some more room to roam around and destroy her forraging toys, we have a good tall sized one but wanted something a but wider for her. I will keep looking. I went to Plant road in Satwa and there are some shops there, saw a really good one guy offered it for 650 after some bargaining which was fab but couldnt get it in the car and he wouldnt deliver, so might get a man with a van to get it for me as its much cheaper than the shops they want 3000 for the same one :O Thank you Egg

High street brand here, i love Nivea mouse foundation, it applies easily does not look ott and stays on all day, plus i suffer acne breakouts tried all other foundations and this is the only one that does not make the breakouts worse / more frequent. I get it from the outlet mall shop on top floor its 20 AED in there love the stuff. I then use the bare ecentuals (sp?) ove the top the loose stuff just to finish it off.

What's it like really? Should I buy? I like the houses very much. If you are happy with the place then go for it, just consider all your options as presently there is not much there and its out of the way , i dont doubt in a few years it will be completely different.

What's odd or hyped about it? Someone messing about on a bus with liquid and a smoking bag...2 guys arrested planning an attack on an Olympic venue.....crack down on these nutters. nothings hyped about it i was saying the UK in general are hyped about security "Possibly everyone is hyped up about security due to the olympics and with the sort of talk all over the internet about targetting the games its better safe than sorry." Perhaps i should have used the word heightened?

I wouldnt book through an agent to go to Cyprus all inclusive. Do it yourself seperately far cheaper We booked flight with Etihad direct cost about 1800 Then we used lots of different secrh engines to find a hotel we liked, try booking.com agoda.com hotels.com medhotels.com beatthebrochure.com or co.uk cant remember Try the hotel direct webiste We went on Trip Advisor found a hotel that suited us then found the price that suited us far cheaper than going therough an agent. Good luck i lvoe Cyprus its beautiful and where i got married but it has gone expensive now with the Euro but if you are going AI its ok :)

There is no bonus thats just soemthing some employers give their maids as a gesture you are not obliged to give her a bonus. As for the holidays as i understood it, she is entitled to Flight = 2500 (as you quote) Holiday pay (monthly salary fee) If she is not taking the leave then you also give her the months salary on top so effectively, yes you give her 2500 plus 2 x 1800 <em>edited by egg on 30/06/2012</em>

Second what Mellie said i had an Olympus for years it took super photos really easy to use, im onto DSLR now so have a Canon and prefer that to Nikon, but if i was opting for a small compact camera i would definitely opt for the Olympus again and they are relatively inexpensive, but if you are going for one try all the elctronic shops and not Olympus as you can get some good deals on a case memory cards etc included and possibly cheaper than Olympus themselves.
