Hey, Welcome to MR! What building are you in? Im in building 5 and can photo copy our manuals if that helps? The fridge - you need to ask this to be connected to the water supply. However as the water isnt very nice to drink - we havent gone for this option. Apparantly - you know the water dispensers you can get delivered weekly? Well these can be connected to the water dispenser in the fridge and the water bottle can be kept in the cupboard..our security guard gave us a number for someone to do this - although we havent got around to it. The washer dryer - lint? do you mean like dirt etc? I think there is something in the door rim you pull out? I will check tonight when i get in

Im not sure what budget you have, or the kind of nanny you are interested in.. But "Norland Nannies" provide fully trained nannies to the highest level - think mary poppins types - lol ---but obviously very expensive.

omg - i had exactly the same problem. I didnt mind spending a reasonable amount for a decent sofa..but not a piece of plastic!" In the end we got a really nice L shaped sofa from pottery barn in mirdif mall. have a look on their online brochure as they have a few nice outdoor bits www.potterybarn.me - or similar

Hi Nikki, I have found something at Emirates Equestrian Centre but at the moment can only ride fri and sat until i get a car (i work in abu dhabi and share a pool car during the week) anyway - the owner maybe looking for something for the other days? Also, i suppose once i get there and start to meet people there maybe other horses that need exercising, so maybe send me your email and i can get in touch should something come up?

Hey, My friend and I have been going to the polo club every week since the summer and doing their desert hacks. Its great if you just want to ride and cant commit to the time every week The horses are in great condition, are fit and treated well. The ride is 2 hours, quite fast They go everyday (usually no more than 8 on a ride) 7am - 9am or 4pm - 6pm 300 dirhams - (but if you find a friend and take an entertainer voucher its only 150aed) Hope that helps
