Does anyone actually has an experience with travelling on Wizz Air? No but I am hopefully flying with them to Sofia next year It will be interesting to hear your thoughts if you manage to book! Do they have a contact centre number you can call? They have, but not in Dubai, i think it's in UK. I finally booked tickets, will ask my friends about their experience when they arrive here;) I found some helpful reviews on this airline: http://www.seatplans.com/airlines/Wizz-Air/classes/Economy-78/user-reviews#comment_id_7262 All i know its not like Fly Dubai or Pegasus.

Thank you very much ladies! Thailand was the great option until we saw forecast for the next week, looks like the weather is very unstable, raining and cloudy!

Hmm... Even more confused:) definitely Pataya is out of the list, we don't like filthy places, ( had unpleasant experience in Mallorca ...) And yes my husband and i like to explore different areas of a destination we choose, like little bit of everything: nightlife, beach, sport activities,mountains, city... and definitely wouldn't mind to move around in these 10 days between a two islands. But the issue now is the weather and again Thailand or Cyprus? We chose these two places as there no visa required for me, also we have never been there and they r kind of affordable and interesting places to go to. We were actually considering to fly Alexandria for the first couple of days, as i have flydubai ticket to use before its expired and there is already house with the private beach. Just perfect after DXB nothing but the beach. Or just fly direct from DXB to anywhere nice where we can make use of each day and have different experience and memory. Just afraid to make a wrong choice. But i just remembered a saying: "Sometimes the wrong choices lead us to the right places" Maybe i should rely on it;-)

Good morning ladies:) thank u for the replies... Now it's clear Thailand is the option, but where?got confused within the Thailand too))) I viewed the places u suggested, looks like Phuket and Koh Samui are great places to go to. I'm not sure about Khao Lak, chiang Mai and koh phangan, don't have much info about it and where they r located exactly. So much reserch to do in so little time! I've heard Pataya is the place to think of too. So totally got lost:( Will try to check on available packages from Dnata. If u have more recommendations I would really appreciate ! :)

Are you still looking? We have several less than a week old... Aw Geez!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am hoping this person made one heck of a big typo! never never take the kittens at that age...never!!!! . wait, not be too hasty here...maybe she is just saying she has new ones but they will not be ready for new homes until 8 weeks. I bet that is what she meant And I dont think the OP meant she wanted a new born kitten, but a young kitten...right??????? edited by SueB on 04/04/2011 Correct!:) I meant a young kitten, not a new new born, but young, shorthair cute kitten which i can adopt or even buy for a reasonable price! And yes i know that there a lots of cats out there looking for a safe home and waiting to be adopted by loving and caring people... but the thing is that i can't really find a kitten i would like to bring up:(

Even acc to my hero Jamie Oliver an oven with a gastop and an electric oven is the PERFECT solution. Just got one and love it. La Germania. Also has 2 electric hotplates if u feel u need them. This is what I've been told by a salesperson in DG sharaf, that the 80% of their customers are west european and buying electric oven, when the 80% of the asian customers going for gas oven. Im from east of Europe, so what should i do?)))))) I do bake, as i love to bake, and prefer to cook in the oven because its the healthier option than frying. Roasting and grilling meet, veggies in the oven, fish in the oven, and must be cooked well with the crispy layer,look well and taste well. Will i get all of this with electric oven?

I've never used electric oven, been baking and roasting with full gas oven, was ok with that:) at the current house we have centralised gas and now we'll be moving to the house where i have no choice other than using gas tank or electric oven. But the question is which oven should i go for the convenient and testy cooking:) Of course gas is cheaper than electricity, or even than centralised ( i didn't know that), maybe grilling with gas is better than with electric, and also i heard that baking is more moist with gas and with electric is dry.Till this day i was not aware of electric oven options, such as: fan cooking which helps to spread heat equally and therefore probably there is less chances for baking to burn, the top and bottom of the oven works in the same time ( which i guess is good mainly for baking). Self cleaning system works with both options, or ceramic ovens which are easy to clean too. Cast iron support is also looks like better than steel. Now all i know is that i want an Italian cooker, with full gas cooktop and either gas or electric oven, and here i need to make a right decision! But unfortunately every time im going to a different shop with different cooker options, I'm getting even more and more confused:( i have options of La Germania brand, Ariston and Elba, these are Italian designed cookers and within our budget. Elba looks good to me, but never heard of it. So please, i would appreciate if you can share your experience with me regarding this topic;)

Did the doc gave anti bio?? You need that, and did they check if the small pieces of tall are out? Better go to a hospital here to get it checked out? Will go tomorrow to see a doctor, as i can't stand on my leg now at all. In the emergency they gave me 3 injections; one pain killer voltaren and the other anti-inflammatory, and another strong pain killer Tromal i guess, as voltaren couldn't help me. And yes, they also did X-ray,so there was nothing been found. But now its swelling and paining!

Try UNE-it's French natural ingredient cosmetics, which you can find in Debenhams Battuta mall, as what I know, and in Oasis Centre ground floor beauty store. I have very sensitive and oily skin, so I've decided to try one of their skin-matt foundation, natural matt and flawless finish. I'm happy with it! Before that I was using for a couple of years a foundation from Japanese brand Kanebo-Sensai, it was good one as well, it's sold in Paris Gallery.

Hi NewHannah! I'm also suffering from melasma:-( I have visited a few doctors here in Dubai for a different opinions. In City Hospital doctor prescribed cream called TRI-LUMA ( http://www.triluma.com/), which is not covered by insurance and the price is 200-300 dhs. I tried with the hope that it will help me and i can forget about melasma for long time.But i was not happy with the results,every time i was applying cream on infected area of the skin, it was turning to red ( like someone paint on my face)) and skin becoming to peel. VERY STRONG and CONCENTRATED cream. The other doctor from Wealcare Hospital prescribed cream prepared by their own pharmacy, which cost approx.80 dhs, i don't know the name of it, but i have a small container with this cream with the written proportion of two creams: ELDOQUINE 4% and RETIN 5%.Its mild and working well! you have to use for 3 month and then rest. It is very disappointing that in nowadays there is no real solution for this problem(((

[u'>[b'>The Interview With God[/u'> I dreamed I had an interview with God. “So you would like to interview me?” God asked. “If you have the time” I said. God smiled. “My time is eternity.” “What questions do you have in mind for me?” “What surprises you most about humankind?” God answered... “That they get bored with childhood, they rush to grow up, and then long to be children again.” “That they lose their health to make money... and then lose their money to restore their health.” “That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present, such that they live in neither the present nor the future.” "That they live as if they will never die, and die as though they had never lived.” God’s hand took mine and we were silent for a while. And then I asked... “As a parent, what are some of life’s lessons you want your children to learn?” “To learn they cannot make anyone love them. All they can do is let themselves be loved.” “To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others.” “To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness.” “To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in those they love, and it can take many years to heal them.” “To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most, but is one who needs the least.” “To learn that there are people who love them dearly, but simply have not yet learned how to express or show their feelings.” “To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it differently.” “To learn that it is not enough that they forgive one another, but they must also forgive themselves.” "Thank you for your time," I said humbly. "Is there anything else you would like your children to know?" God smiled and said, “Just know that I am here... always.”[/b'>[i'>[/i'>

Might be worth popping quickly to see your GP first... these are symptoms of diabetes and a quick blood test would rule it in or out. Don't want to be alarmist, but better safe than sorry. It's going on for sometime already... I'm 24 years old, too young for diabetes:)) i think it's something to do with my mood(( everytime i eat i'm forcing myself,no enjoyment.
