Hi ladymary, I thought the deposit was what you lost if you didn't or couldn't give notice. Staying until June isn't an option but this will be impossible financially. I can't see anything that we signed that agreed to this and it's not referred to in the handbook. I guess we will have to see what the school says and then head to the kdha if we need to for advice. If the school isn't going to lose out financially then it doesn't seem right for a charge like that to be made. Hopefully the school will be reasonable and this won't be an issue x

Thanks all x I don't understand - I thought the deposit (3/4k) was what you lost if you didn't comply with notice. This is a very popular school with a long waiting list and they will fill the place easily so there will be no financial loss to them so how is this justifiable? If it is term in lieu as well that would mean that for two months school (she started late) we would have paid 15k (registration plus prorated term fee) plus around 12k for next term. That's 27k for two months schooling - surely not???

Hi, If you're transferring your child to another school and you give less than one terms notice, do you lose 'just' your deposit or also get charged the next terms fees in lieu? Please not the latter.... ETA this is would be the first term the child has attended that original school, don't know if that makes a difference. <em>edited by Hendy on 21/11/2014</em>

FairyDust - I thought it was a three year project? Are you working on the SZ side eg Gulf News area? I heard it was tricky round there. What about Al Wasl? Any idea if it will be disrupted soon or will they stick to the SZ road and Safa park pieces first? If they do SZ and Al Wasl road at the same time it will be a nightmare!

Thanks all for the replies. We will be coming from Knowledge Village area so Al Khail road is an option for access to DESS but the traffic once you get to Oud Metha road seems grim as HorizonMum2 says. Horizon School would have been easier, and there are nurseries in that area for the LO which is important, but if it's going to take an extra 10 to 15 minutes each way to HS due to the roadworks then it loses its advantage for us and I think we would go for DESS due to its great parental feedback. Any more opinions/thoughts welcome...! H x

Thanks all,appreciate the advice. Will they be able to get a visa on arrival? I thought it had to be arranged beforehand or via a hotel, or is that for other nationalities? And when would they get their boarding pass for that onward leg, or would it be the same one they had before? Thanks again x

We've been living with a broken car AC for a little while but now it is hotting up we need to get the 'blower motor' replaced. Unfortunately the quotes are coming in for 25% of the value of the (old!) car so need to find an alternative to a new part. Does anyone have experience of sourcing a second hand Volvo parts anywhere? Would appreciate a point in the right direction before we spend the entire weekend trailing aimlessly around Sharjah. Thanks x

Hi again Sanddy Dogg, I've been thinking about your original request which in part was for tips. So mine are: Make sure your DD has constant access to you and your DH eg through a phone which supports photos, whatsapp etc. One of my worst memories is desperately needing my mum and dad to talk to but not being able to get hold of them there and then. It was heartbreaking for me as a child but was a long time ago and in these technical times that need never happen. Send photos by phone all the time of what you are all up to, including the daily routine stuff. She will know you are thinking of her all the time no matter what you're up to. Don't stop if she doesn't return the favour! Send letters and little token pressies as often as you can. Getting a letter/postcard handed to you at breakfast / lunch is lovely. I kept all my parents' letters and have them even now, as well as daft little things like magnets that they sent. Moonpig will also be good for sending fun cards, but not all the time as it's nice to see your mum or dad's handwriting. Do whatever you can think of to keep her and her little brother close. It may be hard for her some days knowing that he is at home still with you so be aware of that if it's the case, and as he's so young they may need help staying close over the next few years. Zealously protect holiday times and bring her here or go there for ALL the holidays, even if she starts to want to spend them with friends etc as she gets older. That is your family time and should always happen. Genuinely commit to yourselves and to her that she can always come home if she wants to, if it doesn't work out for her. That's all, and I'm aware it may be advice that is biased towards my experience but I hope it helps. H x PS just want to add (because of a couple of other comments) that I had wonderful, loving and ridiculously affectionate parents! They thought they were doing the right thing for me because of the countries we were living in at the time, and my education has served me well, but I just don't think it was right for our family - we missed out on too much. <em>edited by Hendy on 02/12/2013</em>

Hi, This isn't to offend or upset anyone, but my experience of boarding school and what it meant to me and my family means that I won't be sending my own child there. I started boarding at 11 and went to a couple of really amazing schools that had so much to offer. My parents did everything they could to settle me in well and wrote almost daily. We also had local family and friends support. I always told my mum and dad even as an adult that it was a great experience, but it is only now many many years later that I am starting to really understand the negative impact it did have on me/us. As a family we missed out so much - holidays were wonderful, but for me nothing could replace the value of day to day life with my family. It also meant I missed out on a lot with my sibling which has impacted our relationship as adults. This is very much me and my experience, and I have no doubt many other people have a different one. But for me if I could turn back time I wish it had been different and that I had grown up at home, with my parents and sibling. Best, H x

Thanks to all for the advice. The sale has fallen through which is a relief. However before that happened my DH went to the Rent Committee who wouldn't give him advice unless he opened a case which of cause costs money. However a very nice man who was there as a customer got chatting with him and put in a call to his lawyer to ask the questions we had. One thing that was said was that if a new person buys the apartment then they can give us just 30 days if they want to live here which was bad news for us as the person currently considering it wants it as a weekend beach pad...If anyone knows different can you please let me know. Thanks :)

Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone for your advice and support x So I've got everything together documents wise and DH is going to get some advice tomorrow morning. Does anyone know if he should start with RERA or the Rent Committee? I actually thought they were the same thing until tonight when I was searching various EW threads for information. Since my last note the current LL's agent has arranged for a meeting at our apt tomorrow night with the man who phoned and threatened me and someone else from his company who seems to be the final sign off to the sale. If the advice we get tomorrow supports what has been advised on this thread then I think we will cancel that meeting, why help them buy the place when they have openly said they will kick us out if they do buy it?

Thanks ecochic :) I might just do that. Although I seriously feel a bit scared of the guy, but I guess RERA is the way to go as I wouldn't think he could threaten them. Does anyone know if I can refuse viewings or whether RERA would look poorly on that?

Thanks for the good advice Meagle. If we decided to play hard ball, which wasn't the plan but we don't like to be bullied, could we legally refuse any viewings? As before, we want to be helpful to the current LL, but if these other men buy it I don't want to do anything to help them out. I will read the rental rights links, but if anyone knows the answer to this if they could please let me know. Im also worried the 12 month notice doesnt apply if you pay monthly cheques - I know it doesnt make sense but he sounded so sure. Thanks for your help x

He's a bully and an arrogant so and so. Might be worth your while just getting out, speak with your current landlord and see if he will let you go without penality. Its not worth the angst. I know what you mean, but we pay a good rental rate, it's going to cost a lot to move, and I was going to start looking for work after summer to help fund all that (I was made redundant a few months ago). So don't want to be forced out before we're ready.

Hi littleone. We agreed to the new buyer arranging viewers as he came to see us about it to explain and because ultimately it would help out our current LL who is great. I'm normally pretty confident with people like agents etc but he had me in tears by the time he had finished :(

Hi, Divide base salary by 365 multiply by appropriate number of days. I previously checked this with Freezone Authority and a lawyer when we were double checking that we were calculating it correctly. Usually causes confusion as different calculation to that used for annual leave pay out, but it's correct. H.

This situation is pretty regular for us. We have a blond toddler and since she was born she has been photographed by countless strangers here. Some ask, some don't. Hasn't worried me to date, I grew up overseas and was a blondie so can remember constantly having my hair ruffled and cheeks pulled (which usually hurt!!) by strangers. Mobile cameras weren't about then so it was being touched rather than photographed. So with that memory it wasn't a surprise when I moved here.I can absolutely understand why some parents would feel uncomfortable about it, but we haven't so far. Our LO normally happily goes along with it but if she ever moves away then she's the boss and we say no. The stranger danger issue is an interesting one though, and I will need to find a way to incorporate that into this type of situation. Re the hugging part, We've enjoyed her getting a lot of physical positivity from people here as shes grown, whereas it seems sad in the UK where no one would have dared touch her. Last time we were home in the UK a taxi driver went to fasten her seatbelt and then had a near heart attack apologizing that he shouldn't have done it ie touched her, he had just done it automatically as he was used to belting his grand kids in. It seemed so sad. Anyway I think there is no right or wrong, every parent will and should react how they feel is right for them and their child. But it is always a situation you will encounter while you live here. H x edited by Hendy on 19/05/2013 edited by Hendy on 19/05/2013 <em>edited by Hendy on 19/05/2013</em>

Hi, I managed the administration for the Bupa scheme at my last company. They accepted all pre existing conditions and didn't require any documentation, just the person's name and date of birth. We had this exact request then and I talked to Bupa direct about it. Surprisingly they had no issue, the person didn't have to be connected to the company as an employee or relative. If we were prepared to have them on our scheme then Bupa was fine with it. I realize this isn't what you'd expect, but it's true. Once the person has been on the scheme for 3 consecutive years then they can transfer from company funded to personal funded without losing cover for any conditions that had cropped up over those 3 years. So for example if they joined the company Bupa scheme, got cancer and then had to switch to personal funded before 3 years was up then they would lose cover in the case that the cancer came back. However once three years had passed with them being on the company scheme and then they switched, they would keep the benefit of that cover if the cancer then came back. So the OP's request does make sense, and didn't constitute any wrongdoing as per the conversation I last had with Bupa on it. It can really make a difference to someone's life, but doesn't sit comfortably with most MDs etc. H x <em>edited by Hendy on 17/05/2013</em>

Our maid left half way through her second year contract which has been a bit of a nightmare, but we still gave her a months leaving bonus. I know we didn't have to, and she cost us money visa wise etc, but she had been great with our little one, never taken advantage etc and it seemed the right thing to do. I'm glad we did, I can look back and feel comfortable with what we did.

I understand how you feel. I moved to Dubai by myself and my DH came over for one week to help settle me in, including driving me to work while I learnt the route. The first day I had to take the wheel I started crying and he thought he was going to have to take over! Anyway I persevered and I actually now prefer driving here to driving in the UK now. The roads are great, and it's just kind of fun! Best tip my DH gave me is to remember that the driver, not passenger, is always in the middle of the road by the line (eg on a two lane road, one each way). Whenever I have a temporary split second mind blip here or UK as to which side of the road I'm on, that keeps me correct. You may also find yourself reaching over your shoulder for your seatbelt on the wrong side too! That still happens to me now and then even after 5 years!!

Hi Snoopy10, I'm not familiar with any vets at that end of town, but to be honest my experience of wild birds and vets is that the stress of it all tends to be too much for them. I think best you can do is make your balcony a safe place for him to catch his breath and rest - create a shaded area maybe from an old sheet and make sure he has lots of water. If he stayed there for any length of time perhaps get him some appropriate bird seed. Hope he makes it xx

Thanks for the reply Mushypeas :) It seems a waste of time and money when we could do what we've done previously which is for the previous sponser to cancel and then us to immediately do the visa so they get their deposit back. Rather than her fly back home she could just start up with us the next day (we'd send her on her hold in the summer which suits her). They want her to stay so are using what seems to be bully boy tactics to make that happen. Why not accept her decision and let her get on with it? Re the ban, it would simply be done from spite because they wanted her to stay and she won't.

You're right Mrs BW, and that can be a lifesaver for a mum who needs those two half hour breaks to breast feed with some employers even showing flexibility in allowing them to group those two breaks for a while so for example it is instead one hour a day and they leave early. It's for a limited time and linked to nursing only. However if it's not a fit with this piece of legislation, but is a parent wanting to reduce their hours on a permanent basis, then they usually with have a prorated salary and benefits eg bonus and annual leave. MKS - I've observed it tends to be either part time roles advertised that way from the start, or as others have said that you establish yourself full time and then negotiate although that can take some time. Another option which seems to be more acceptable is to negotiate at the recruitment stage so same hours but different times, eg start early and finish early which can suit some people. Good luck, hope you find something :)

Reduced hours usually means reduced salary/benefits, so can't understand why any full-timer would have a problem with it.

Hi, I had a melanoma which was missed by a dermatologist both in Australia and here. It was only removed at my insistence so agree that it is also vital to monitor yourself. But I think this is limited to some degree so I go to Dr Nasir at Dermacare 04 342 0088. I know some people think he can be over cautious but I absolutely trust him. They also offer mole mapping which you can repeat every 6 to 12 months dependant on your situation. It's basically a special photo of each mole close up so they can track any changes. HTH

Looks like we are going to have to leave our Shoreline apartment (Palm Jumeirah) and I'm a bit gutted. For me it's because we have a sea view that I love (for low-ish rent as we've been here so long!) but more importantly because my nearly 3 year old girl has a great little community set up here. There's a lovely park and pool and of course the beach, and loads of kids she's friends with as she's been going down to play most days since she was tiny. If you live somewhere that has a great set up for kids which is well used by the children that live there, can you tell me where? Visiting friends in various places I see lots of parks etc but they often seem quiet whereas you can hardly move for children out and about here! We're open to areas made up of villas or apartments. Thanks for your votes! I appreciate your help :)

Hi Lolacat, Thanks for your reply. We have tried this in that there are times when we feel like we have no choice but to do this, although I worry this can just make him feel vulnerable and therefore more likely to bite so it is a last resort. I know we have tried with him but I still feel like we have let him down somehow and I'm very upset by the whole thing. However I've mentally committed to the fact we can't keep him and if we can't rehome him due to his behavourial problems then we will have to have him put to sleep. I spoke to the vets today and we are speaking to them on Saturday to update whether we have any other option. So if anyone is willing to see if they can help him then please let me know as soon as possible. Many thanks.

Again, thank you for the ideas and taking the time to look at his photo and consider alternatives. In answer to some of the questions: We've had him since he was four weeks old as he was a rescued kitten found in a lady's car engine. She had been driving around for some time that day and had no idea where he had climbed in. He was amazingly unhurt and only needed eye drops. This was of course too young to be separated from his mum. We tried the water spray bottle tactic consistently for around two months but it made no difference at all. There are both high and low areas for him to go to in order to feel safe, although he couldn't make his way right round the room at a high level without coming down at some stage. We haven't tried feliway as we went straight to the tablets Zylkene as it was deemed a serious enough situation by the vet to do so. Thank you for the various names of groups who may help, and I will continue to try with them although they are of course already very stretched from what I understand. Sue B - he was always a biter before the operations but I do think it was a lot worse after he came out of his stay at the vets. He was caged there for one month and then contained in a modified playpen at home for another few weeks as we had to limit his movements in order to let his legs heal, which they did really well. I'm sure this would have all effected his behaviour but it was a while ago now. He really bites more than scratches, but the nip is hard and often turns into a proper bite. He attacked me again last night and left my arms in a bit of a state. It's just so upsetting as I keep hoping a switch will flick and he will stop. It's completely unprovoked. His pupils go so big and it's like he isn't him anymore, I can't really describe it. He only seems to know how to interact through biting, so for example if we stroke him he will firmly put his teeth in although will eventually let go if you don't try pull away (which is the natural reaction when you have cat teeth indenting your skin). Of course he has a sweet side but it is shown less often. What I do know is that we just can't go on and wait until he hurts the little one. Again, if anyone is willing to give him another chance and they have a garden (which I am convinced he needs) and no little children, then please let me know as soon as possible.

Thanks to all you have answered, and for the generally helpful suggestions. I understand the upset it causes when a healthy animal is put down, and I expected some concern/criticism on the board for it. It is never a position I expected to be in as we are a family of animal lovers and have always commited to our pets who travel from country to country with us. That includes this cat - we spent over AED 10,000 that we couldn't really afford on his vet bills after his accident to get his broken legs pinned and fixed (he healed really well). He spent one month caged at the vets and I don't know if that time cooped up damaged him behaviour-wise but that was back in May. If it was just me and my husband we would stick with him, but I have to prioritise my daughter. She is getting scared of him, although she is still sweet with him despite countless bites and scratches. But we had a close call with a scratch near her eye a few days ago and I would never forgive myself if she was permanently hurt. I have advertised twice on Dubizzle and once on EW. I have now emailed Bin Kitty (thank you for that lead). I emailed FF a few days ago although have had no answer so I will try phone them. He has been neutured but that didn't help, and has been on tablets from the vets but that hasn't made enough of a difference. I'm not on Facebook so if anyone has any contact numbers for the other organisations that would be helpful. Likewise please ask around in case anyone is willing to give him another chance. I'm not going to set him free. He hasn't been in the wild since he was 4 weeks old and I would rather have him die in a controlled way at the vets then suffer a slow starvation if he couldn't fend for himself or got injured by other wild cats.

Hi, No disclaimer was signed. I've written to the management and owner,and just hope they take an ethical/professional stance on this... We've paid them almost AED 6,000, and now it's going to be a lot more than that again for an injury sustained while they were looking after him. They could still turn this into a positive 'customer experience', but if they don't I'm feeling very inclined to shout this from the rooftops so people know what happened. Would everyone else feel the same? I've talked to friends and they are even more shocked then I expected them to be. xx

Hi, I would really appreciate some advice. Our kitten (a newly acquired stray) went into a vets with two broken back legs. We paid a LOT of money for surgery on the one leg that needed it, and then for the kitten to stay there for three weeks on cage rest to keep him safe and to give him the best chance of recovery. We went to pick him up only to be told that the day before they had noticed he wasn't using a front leg, and that an x-ray showed his elbow joint was newly broken. Their investigation showed this was likely due to him playing roughly in his cage (with two broken back legs?!) and putting his front leg through the wire grid, which is when it broke. They said nurses had seen him doing this and tried to stop him, however no one had called me to express concern or we would have picked up and got him earlier into the safe area we converted ready for his return home. He needs surgery, they can't do it there so will get a quote from another vet, but they outlined the likely cost and it is huge. Finally, and this is where I need your help, despite this happening in their care they say they won't pay towards the surgery, even though they advise he needs it. I am writing to the owner and manager but would really appreciate some advice from the EW group. Please, nothing about getting the kitten put down etc, I just want to concentrate on how best to make the vet clinic take some financial reponsibility. It's been such a disappointing experience, they present themselves as a great business and community minded, but then take this stance :( Do you agree they are being unethical/unprofessional? I'm not saying who they are because at this stage I'm still hoping they will come good. Thanks x

Thanks amelia and Clairehdp - it's great to hear that the initial response is in line with what I had thought/felt. Good idea re Feline Friends. If anyone else has any other ideas please let me know. Even just expressing your thoughts/feedback would be great - seeing the initial feedback gave me the idea that maybe I will print it off to take to the management to demonstrate what their customer base thinks of what they are doing. Might make them rethink as if there is strong opinion then I guess they wouldn't want their name made public. So please, keep your comments coming... Thank you x

Hi ilovewine, don't be sorry, I appreciated your message! Oncologist is involved, but I'm being referred for surgery and the usual practice eg in States or UK would be for a gyne oncologist to do it, not a general gynecologist. Thanks again. If anyone out there can help would be much appreciated.
