Thanks Bellaroonie. Have been to Pinkys behind MOE, quite limited range so would like to visit their Sharjah warehouse. Is Luckys nearby to Pinkys in Sharjah? Had a look at Luckys website - are their furniture similar to Pinkys (or not)? Would like to see as many furniture places as possible on the trip. Are there any other furniture shops we should see? Thanks a lot!

Dan Lou - just to update you, the shop in Bin Sougat has changed owners. I'm told the new owner is interested in bringing other lines such as artificial flowers, so no more furniture! Apparently they had a huge sale in March before the changeover - sigh ...

Sorry, sent too soon. Sounds really silly but how do you get from one zone to another - I couldn't get out of the first zone, the one near the front entrance. Are there "connecting" doors from fron to end, or separate entrances for each zone? "Information" couldn't tell me (??!!).

Green-ish replied : The one thing I didn't buy and really wish I had is a gorgeous oud burner. If the budget had stretched, I also would have liked an Arabic lantern/light. I'm new to Dubai and have noticed the beautiful Arabic lanterns/lights already and would love to know where to buy them as well. Anybody?

Hi there, have just received response from Blackmores in Australia: Blackmores products are not available for purchase in Dubai. However you may like to purchase products from Blackmores Online Shop. For further information please go to: http://shop.blackmores.com.au To place an order from this site you will first need to register at: http://www.blackmores.com.au/subscribe Orders that are shipped to countries outside of Australia may be subject to import taxes, customs duties and fees levied by the destination country. The recipient of an international shipment may be subject to such import taxes, customs duties and fees, which are levied once a shipment reaches your country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by the recipient; Blackmores has no control over these charges and cannot predict what they might be.

Thanks Sugarbeach, looked up website but unfortuantely they don't stock the types I want. Juzzrach, I have looked at lots of places too but no luck. I've just emailed Blackmores Australia whether their products are available in Dubai. Will let you know when I receive a reply. In the meantime, who are you thinking of buying from online?

Thanks everyone for welcome, and comments/suggestions. Will follow up contacts. Sorry - what development is "dso"? Arabian Ranches - had been told it would be too far for DC (?). How long will the drive be? Simpleasabc - did see one in Meadows 9 with quite a strong sewerage smell! So the drive on the SZR is too far or "not so safe"? Thanks a bunch everyone!

Thanks plum2, had ruled out AR because was told it was too far out so will now include. Can't remember from my look-see visit, do you have to go anywhere near Sheik Zayed Road? Would love more details on the house in Savannah. There doesn't appear to be too many photos on Dubizzle. Are there more dedicated websites for individual communities with photos of different types of villas and floor plans etc?

thanks a alot Cornish Pixie. Will add The Lakes. Budget around 200,000. What is the housing market like - lots to choose from or not? Do youknow if agents are available all summer to view houses with? Just trying to work out when to arrive so that we get a few villas to choose from as opposed to scraping the bottom of the barrel, so to speak!

Hi there everyone. Am finally moving to Dubai this summer. Have a few questions and will start a different post for each, apologies in advance! Any recommendations for a good international moving company? Have been told by a few people to avoid Allied Pickfords. Thank you.
