I used critter sitters Dubai for my cat and they came twice a day. I also live in the ranches and I honestly felt it wS better for my kitty as she was always 'off' after going to cattery. [b'>Not sure about the comment stating they only take care of indoor cats[/b'>....contact them and ask because the lady who runs the business is so kind and gentle and absolutely adores animals...good luck :) It is on the main 'cat' page of their website, which is why we weren't able to use them. I do feel for the OP, but to be honest I wouldn't be happy being reponsible for someone else's cats if they were allowed out while I was in charge. <em>edited by Geordie expat on 11/03/2014</em>

The wife who beat up the maid until she died is mother to a 2yr old and and an 8month old!!! HOW can you be maternal (care for your baby, worry about the safety of other children, people, etc when you are a mum) AND show such violent rage towards someone. It's something else if you are doing it to protect your children from harm. Otherwise what am I missing here? Because you don't have to be maternal to have children!

I am a woman :) and I will be sponsoring my daughter for her visa. To do this, I need a ‘No objection certificate’ from my husband. Does anyone have a pro-forma they can give me? Go to one in the typing shops and get it in Arabic also ( Incase they require this) Thanks for the reply, but I have not arrived in Dubai yet; I am trying to get as much of the paperwork done as I can before I leave. Is this a form that has to be filled in or is it simply a letter that has to be written by my husband? Do you know where I could get a pro-forma or example fromfrom? I don't know if there is one and I have never come across one online etc I imagine other posters will comment and give advice It isn't a form no but I believe it has to be written a certain way and some government organisations want it translated into Arabic the correct way Whenever I needed an NOC from DH it was just a letter along the lines of: I 'name' holder of British Passport No. ??????? have no objection to my wife 'name', holder of British Passport No. ?????? and then saying whatever he has no objection to. In my case it was working :) He only ever signed something in Arabic once I was temping and needed a labour card. edited by Geordie expat on 10/03/2014 Thta's great, thanks. Does it have to be on company/headed paper? No it was always just typed on A4 paper from home.

Try Critter Sitters... [url=http://crittersittersdubai.weebly.com/'>link[/url'> Unfortunately being an indoor cat is one of their stipulations. I feel you may have difficulty finding someone to come a visit cats who may be outdoors as they won't want the responsibilty. We use our neighbours to look after ours and vice versa, but I would never ask them to let them out for me. <em>edited by Geordie expat on 10/03/2014</em>

i add it at the start.. i'm drooling already.. but i think you can also add at the end.. i just sprinkle it on top.. Thanks I'll try adding it at the start this time as we both like cinnamon. Such a shame I'm on a two day of the 5:2 :( edited by Geordie expat on 10/03/2014 awww.. when you're not on your two day then.. let me know how it goes.. cinnamon is awesome because it stops you craving sweet yummies.. how is the 5:2 going? i do intermittent fasting.. i like it better.. stop eating at 6 pm and have breakfast at 10 am.. 16 hours of fasting.. it's going well with me.. The 5:2 isn't that bad when you get used to is and we're now cutting down on the 5 days as well. If we didn't work I would much prefer your way of fasting, I may try it on a weekend though. i do IF (intermittent fasting) everyday.. and usually when i reach work.. first thing i do is have my green tea on an empty stomach... then wait for 10 AM to have my OATS.. that way i also got used to not having bfast... it really works wonder whether it is the 5:2 or IF.. my SIL lost 11 kgs by doing 5:2 and she looked quite healthy.. I wish I could, but being front of house means I can't eat at my desk :(

Will you be able to go on your husband's sponosrship? I found when I was made redundant last year, because I was on DH sponsorship I was temping almost straight away. Helps keep you occupied while you're looking for a premanent role and maybe give you experience at something totally different.

Thank you again Geordie expat. So 1200aed is good if the home kit cost around 600. This time I will do it in the clinic and most properly I will use the home kit later on if needed. I'm just nervous to use it alone for the first time and it's time for my bi-annual scaling anyway so will do it in the same session. I'm comfortable with this practice. They are new so most of their rates are very good. Booked for today so maybe I will come later and write how was it. Please do as I'll be interested to hear if it does make that much difference.

if in a hurry, you can always microwave.. when i meal prep for the week.. i usually microwave.. but they are best roasted with cinnamon... mmmm Oooooh sounds good. I can feel an interesting dinner coming on tomorrow. Do you just roast in the overn as normal and then add cinnamon or add it right at the start? I mash them with carrots and add lots of black pepper yum Yep done that lovely :)

i heard whitening can ruin your teeth.. but then teeth can also be ruined by a lot of food we eat... As long as it's done, or at least started professionally there should be no harm and of course have your teeth checked on a regular basis.

I can't say how much the dentist here would charge, as I've always used the do it at home version. Much cheaper to do it this way I guess as once you have the moulds, you're not paying for his time ;) A pack of four whitening syringes costs me about AED500 / 600

Thanks Girls x Yes we now realize it's tougher than we think .... & sum of our advice is a bit outdated. Things moving fast now that more Brits & Europeans arriving makes things all the more competitive .. it's a city too where a face fits so not much point sending out a zillion CVs :( .. In the meantime I will tell him to get a job in the pub - that might work lol Get him on LinkedIn too, if he isn't already. There are a lot of ex-mil groups on there to join.

I also googled Paul Carrack, and was happy to read who he is. I read yesterday, that John Mayall will be doing concerts this year in U.K. as he is touching 80!!! What a concert that would be if Eric Clapton joined him. I love this man. I grew up listening to him sing How long has this been going on ( Singing at the top of my voice) He was brilliant and it was almost worth going to see him alone :) We were lucky and had a great vantage point, slightly higher than the people just in front, but I honestly could have cheerfully have murdered the people behind us. If looks could have killed ;) I went to see Bruno Mars here and there were 4 guys in front of us getting hammered, dancing and waving their cigarettes around in a packed crowd with kids dancing. I ended up saying something as felt there would be a cigarette mishap. I got a mouthful but thankfully a few Dads stepped in and told them to go away quietly. There is always someone isn't there? These guys were just chatting up any female in sight, very loudly.

I'll say the exact opposite to FairyDust. No it doesn't hurt, well at least not to the extent of needing special toothpaste. More like a tingle when I brush my teeth. Everyone's pain threshold is different. I tend to top mine up every six months or so, unless there is something very special on and I'll buy a couple of extra syringes.

Brilliant night, apart from the fact I nearly murdered an American standing behind me. He talked at the top of his voice all through the concert and during the acoustic set I was ready to do time if DH had let me strangle him. Why oh why do people go to see amazing performers like this, if all they want to do is have a drink and talk. There are places for that and any sort of performance is not the right place.

Just out of curiosity try putting your current rent in the RERA calculator for the end of April and see what the increase, if any, would be. Maybe it will give you and idea of what's going on now.

I have to agree with Sarah, I go to NBar and I am so happy there, the girls are lovely, the music is nice and I get 3 girls at one time - in and out in 45 minutes. Personally - I have never ever had a good manicure from anyone whilst in the UK. Not compared to what I've had here. In UK I had to pay for the manicure on top of the Gellish. Not amused ha and the therapist didn't stop talking the entire time. The girls at Tips and Toes chat to me otherwise I listen to my Ipod Think you ladies slightly missing the point of the post. I'm not asking how your rate uk technicians, merely is there a market for 'mobile ' nail tech. To be honest I prefer to go out and get my nails etc done as it's a treat and I wouldn't want DH around (or the pets) :)

Hello! I am just about to move to Dubai and am looking at the paperwork that is required! The 2 most complicated appear to be getting my marriage certificate and child's birth certificate legalised and attested in (a) the UAE Embassy in the coutry of origin (b) translated into Arabic and (c) attested by the Foreign Affairs Ministry in UAE. I am sure that loads of people must have been through this, can anyone advise on the easiest way to proceed, or recommend a company/individual who has done the same for them? Thanks! Both my colleagues did theirs whilst living in Dubai. Neither had them translated? They said they took them to one of the typing shops here and they did the rest ( Sent them to their respective countries) Maybe other posters can shed light on this Where did you get married? I thought you had to get it done in the Foreign and commonwealth office of the country you are from/married in not the UAE From the UK I had to send mine to Milton Keynes first. Then took it to the British Embassy out here. I certainly didn't have it translated. I also have a feeling it was his company PRO who took it to MOFA when I got my visa. If the OP searches on here there are a number of companies she can pay to do all of this for her, no matter where she is living. <em>edited by Geordie expat on 06/03/2014</em>

I think you have to go to the court to receive your judgement. None of it makes sense and it doesn't seem to make any difference what the law states! The law states in our case that the landlord cannot rent the property out for 2 years after serving an eviction notice and can only evict a tenant if they themselves are moving in or selling etc....... New tenants moved in 2 weeks after we moved out. This makes a mockery of the law, I am so sorry to read that you lost, I can hardly believe it. Yes, it's hearing things like this that makes others not want to bother. :(

Colleague of mine just took her parcel to the Post Office in DIFC and sent it from there. She said it takes a while, but ASOS have always been ok about it. Hers was only a dress mind. Thank you Geordie.. Did she have to pay for the postage at all? If it comes to it, maybe ill send the shoes back without the boxes? Yes she paid postage back to the UK via normal mail. Sorry she's not in today to check with, but I bet it was a lot cheaper than courier.

I imagine so as there are mobile hairdressers I suppose it depends on ease of getting an appointment, cost etc I am happy with Tips and Toes as my Gellish manicure and pedicure is done in 45 minutes flat and it is cheaper than the UK ( Here you can have 3 people working on you at once) :-) Which one do you go to please, as I've heard that mine is closing at the end of this month and I need to find somewhere else :( I go to the Greens branch as live next door. You can always pop in for a cuppa or vino afterwards :-) Sounds good to me :) I'll give them a go next month. Thanks

Thanks Tattie, Guess we will just have to soldier on with those applications and hold thumbs! Most companies probably don't see much logic in hiring a 50-something year old woman as its cheaper and easier to get them young and fresh out the box It took this 50+ woman nearly two years to get a permanent role but I managed eventually. Is there anyway your Mum could be sponsored by a family member, as I did a number of temp roles on DH sponsorship.
