Thanks to everyone for bringing this to our attention. We’re very sorry but try as we might, so far, we have not been able to replicate the problem and hence understand it, to go on to fix it. One reader said she was using Google Chrome on MAC, we loaded it onto a MAC in the office, logged in and experienced no problems. The issue is specific to a particularly mix of technology so anyone who wouldn’t mind helping us get to the root of it, we’d really appreciate hearing from you. Please email your phone number to [email protected] and we’ll give you a call. Thank you in advance! We’ll keep you all posted.

Hi there, we have looked into the issue for kiwispiers and double checked everything across every platform from our end and there is no issue with the functionality of the site. What there can be an issue with is your settings, your operating system and your browser... if you do a google search for logging out of website issues connected to your OS or browser you will see some common problems- try some of the fixes or updates from there. The session on EW is set to time out after 4 hours of non- activity. There is an extremely minute number of our users facing this issue and as much as we sympathise how frustrating this must be there is nothing that can be done from our side that has not already been done. Really hope you find a fix for this. EW Admin

Hi there! Thanks for letting us know some have slipped through as we have a new person on board- apologies the offending ones will be removed as soon as possible.... and there is a disclaimer at the top of the Classifieds as well.... "DISCLAIMER: Pets can only be advertised as "free to a good home". And if you are looking to hire a maid, please be advised that it is NOT legal to hire a maid on her own VISA although it is undeniably common practise. Please note that the penalties, should you be caught, are severe and onerous for both you and the maid and we specifically recommend that you OBSERVE UAE LABOUR LAW" Thanks for the heads up as you can imagine we are very busy at the moment and sometimes lapses occur.

Dear All, Thanks for the feedback- we are actually working through a lot of changes to the site and things will come and go and change over this period. Please bear with us- the team are working very hard on this, so please be patient. The site is very vast and has hundreds of pages and sections and has been live for 10 years so as you can imagine there are lots of add ons, links, pages and bolted ons etc. etc. etc. to take into consideraton. We are working on it night and day to get it 100%. Thanks in advance, Admin

The emails we have received so far point to it being only etisalat users who aren't able to access the site. Please email us if you are with a different provider. I have requested etisalat to update EW's server details as soon as possible as they confirmed today they are still going to the old server which is why the "Under maintenance" message is still displaying. Thank you for your patience!

Hi Gina, do tell your friend to come along tomorrow (Monday 13th) to Mall of the Emirates, Costa Coffee at 10.00am until 12.00pm. Dee will be running this group, a lovely mum with a little girl just a few months old. Its a lively group of mums with babies of all ages and she is bound to meet someone at the same stage of motherhood. She can arrive whenever she wants too, and will receive a warm welcome. Its a long hot summer ahead and the only way through it is to meet up with some mates!! We also have a group on a Thursday in Mirdif City Centre Caffe Nero, she can always e-mail us if she needs more info. <em>edited by admin on 12/06/2011</em>

Awww.... just to say THANKYOU! This thread has been buzzing round the office all day - pinged off to other continents too - just to say 'Hey look! Its worth it....' to our moderating team ;-) Not always the easiest job maintaining an environment for all you lovely, helpful ladies to assist, support, interest and amuse each other. Thanks for taking the time to write LD. Friends who lived in Sing so miss it! I guess everywhere's the same - you'll find good, bad and indifferent people - most people you meet face to face will be friendly I'm sure. Its just a few people who set out to exploit the anonymity of forums, attacking fellow posters, but those that do can seem to have a louder voice than others; its so daunting for newcomers to be shot down in flames! We really appreciate all the helpful advise shared on these boards - now coming up to our 10th Anniversary! We've changed boards along the way so don't have total stats for the period but what a wealth of experience shared. I wonder where we'll all be in 2021?! Jane
