This thread has given me a huge push - towards the nearest cinema screen. What show/ time would you ladies recommend, to avoid the possibility of any lurkers/psychos/creepy guys? I ask because, if you are completely alone, and there is even one nutter around, thats too many, isnt it! Has anyone ever encountered a problem, and any advise if something wierd happens? We should make a blind date, all the EW ladies, and turn up at the cinema at the appointed time. But no intros/ numbers/ chatting etc just watch the movie 'together' and disperse afterwards - can discuss the movie on here later, lol.

It really depends on what you are looking for. Gold Souk has traditional gold shops with intricate designs influenced by Asian and Arab artisans, you can haggle and shop around to get varied price points, they are the only place authorised to accept gold and in return for cash, and they make unique one of a kind jewellery that can only be found in that souk. They have something for everyone, from 18-24 carat gold, heavy to intricate designs, Damas diamond-only outlets, etc. Parking and taxis are a nightmare. GDP has very modern stock, mostly platinum, white gold and diamond, and 18 carat yellow gold. They have a huge store of loose diamonds to suit every kind of customer, and can find a stone to fit any budget. If its diamonds you are after they have a great collection. <em>edited by Redrec Tangle on 31/10/2014</em>

Gosh lots of things...if they are not already Frozen out, how about Elsa and Anna dresses from Toys r Us for hours of cosplay, or if they already have those, you could add to the collection with some new merchandise thats always being updated - I saw a Frozen set of walkie-talkies for girls, stuff like that. Or how about a twin set of rollerblades/rollerskates. DIY sticker machine or bracelets machine, the latter can be uploaded with their own pictures to make it really personalized or gifts for friends with both their pictures on. A nice big Lego set that can be done over and over again as they are so big and intricate and fun.

A dog dressed as Elsa (my daughter would have cried at the insult to her beloved Snow Queen), manic clowns attacking fat children, Barney going for a record making cake smash, unchaste pinatas and grocery shopping - now thats how you throw a party! I had such a laugh, sorry ladies but this was funny. I have to say I feel sorry for that girl, to grab food like that, something deeper than surface thievery going on in that home.

From the ever present thumbs down on the most innocuous post, it was obvious someone was taking time to figuratively attack Izzy, but wow, to send nasty emais and now to out the person in a public forum means the stalker has stepped up their offensive, and I'd strongly advise you to up your defense, this sort of thing isnt going away. If you have copies of the emails, and prinouts of the FB posts, then register a complaint, these sort of online bullying campaigns are being taken seriously by the police and you have every right to put a stop to it, why must you go on ignoring this outrageous level of aggression? Its true that your posts are at times, somewhat inflammatory and when I find it so either I ignore it or point it out, but its just an online forum, and there's no need to cyber stalk someone to this extent. I am so curious as to who it may be, they ought to be outed as well. Bullies are cowards and I bet this one will run with her/his tail tucked in when confronted.

Since her hooded eye was her trademark look, opening them up with an upper eye lift has completely changed the essence of her look, so now you have to look for Renee in some old familair feature and recognise her from that, she looks like a mix of herself with some other actresses thrown in, as if her image has been morphed with Naomi Watts or Juliette Lewis or someone else. It also appears that a chin implant has been done. Its quite sad, as it feels like the old person has dissapeared, but since so many of these ladies fall victim to this stereotype I wonder why they dont just come out and admit it, its as plain as the nose their face (pun unintended). The industry is a crazy place, where actresses roles dry up and they are made to 'retire' at age 30! It must be quite hard to have so much attention and critique on every wrinkle that appears and they just conform to the pressure it seems.

They would simply like to observe the child when he or she is in a school environment, away from their primary caregivers and how they would react, for instance to friendly instructions/suggestions, or to their peers, their social skills, and to understand a little bit about their personality. They also look for learning difficulties that may not be obvious in a shorter interview or process. They will definitely take into account the age of the child and how exposed he has been thus far to a school setting or environment. They do not expect children to 'ace' in any standard or compare a shy child with someone else who may be more accomplished or confident, because there is no standard set in any case. Children will be assessed in a play based set up, and perhaps asked to do some simple activity, a sandpit or a coloring station may be set up beforehand. They may ask the child to have a snack (one school assessment my child attended did this). They do expect in FS for the child to be fully toilet trained although a girl in my child's FS class was still in the midst of this process and the teachers were helping her to get there. Hope this helps.

Hi Rosie, I would really struggle saying 'yes' back in the UK (even if I had met the host) but out here without hesitation it would be a very firm 'NO'. I have heard too many horror stories.

These threads are really annoying - people are only rude because you let them. Just tell them no, don't be rude, dont push in, wait your turn etc and move on. If you find this thread useless why do you bother commenting on it, you could have just ignored it and moved onto another one. Your entire post disproves your statement that people are only rude if you let them.

Cant decide which one it is, to be honest. Oblivious [i'>and[/i'> rude, perhaps. I was trying to parallel park at a mall and had an incident with the driver of a 4WD that had gone over a pavement to park along a stretch of road that was being used as a construction zone, and was now blocked in. I had just parked and was leaving with a child and a heavy duty stroller when he asked me to exit again so that he could leave. I didn't particularly want to, but I could see his predicament and was about to put my child back in the car when, for some bizarre reason he thought he could BERATE me, and said, "Well, you should have thought about that before you decided to block us in, shouldn't you?" I was flabbergasted. He had entered a small stretch used as a construction zone that was clearly not meant for parking and expected us to give up a valid parking spot so that he and others like him that were parked there had a way out. To be honest until the time he spoke to me I had not even seen the cars parked there or that they were blocked in. I didn't care if he felt desperate enough that he had to park there and would have helped him out of a spot, but for him to blame me as though it was my irresponsibility and lack of concern for his law-breaking ways, infuriated me. I saw someone getting into their car to leave behind me, and loaded my child onto the stroller, and then turned to the rude driver who was still waiting. He asked me again, "So are you going to help me out then? "and it didn't sound like a request but more of an order. "No I'm not," I replied, "ask him (pointing at the man who was leaving) and this time, BE POLITE about it." I heard him sputtering behind me as I left.

Indeed happy to see a lot of people think like this. It is just spinning out of control, especially since this comes on top of the mountain high school fees we already pay... To add to that are the birthday parties, school shows, field trips, books fairs and contributions towards breast cancer awareness and whatnot. I see money literally flying out of my wallet some months.

It's like traffic fines; we rant and rave but ultimately we have to pay up because they say so. Here, we've ranted and raved and been deleted and banned and now it's all knitting needles and kittens. Facebook did the same thing at first - ignored what their users wanted and then ultimately they were forced to implement better privacy etc. They'd already lost people by then. EW is at risk from someone who comes along with a better way of connecting expat women. We want to be able to chat about stuff that matters and be able to exchange details via PM. I certainly don't want to go to a coffee morning just to meet a woman who has plants she wants to give away. Far easier to arrange and co-ordinate by PM. So there. The feather light trigger on banning for every small infraction is what really turned the masses away. Cannot imagine this is the same EW that has a four or five day old thread still up on the first page.

Since this is the month of breast cancer awareness and there have been numerous events tied in with that, maybe you could take photographs of a charity sale/run/marathon, or just different things with that as your theme, such as the ribbon, or the color, or people in slogan t-shirts (with their permission), or visit a hospital that's running a screening and take pictures there. Or all of it, to make a small set of photos. I assume you have the 20 days of the month before you have to submit your collection on the 20th, so you still have a few days to get some nice pictures. Just saw on the EW page there is a sewing marathon session taking place at Dubai Marina mall with volunteers helping out. <em>edited by Redrec Tangle on 16/10/2014</em>

Oh my, at 152, that's a huge pack - without a pack leader. She means well, but she has not actually solved the problem, yet. Yes, they are off the streets but as long as they outnumber their care-givers to this completely disproportionate level, it is simply too risky for her own sake and that of the animals to be living like this. If I was a neighbor with small children I would definitely not feel safe at all. FWIW I did see the SOS Emirates dogs facebook page which had links to articles, pictures and stories that were verified by the owner herself as being an accurate description of events, but it still doesn't seem like those many dogs should be in a residential area and I think the right decision has been taken. Such lovely sweet dogs though, they are so hungry for food and love. She has a heart of gold.

I think Marroush makes a very thoughtful statement when she says that in her opinion people should state their wishes up front (i.e. before getting married), but of course peoples wishes, beliefs and sometimes religion can change with circumstances and age. This is life! Absolutely, people change all the time. Sometimes for the good, sometimes for the better. I think this might have happened, a lot of men go through a phase where they really ask themselves if this is what they want from life. A guy who didn't practice his faith before can now do a 180 and become more religious. Which can be difficult if he is married to a woman that has not accepted his faith and doesn't know how to deal with it. well , he should have laid his cards on the table ! he cannot expect his wife to dance to his tune ! she has the right to practise her own religion, it is clearly stated in the Quran that the people of the book ( bible being one of them ) do not need to convert or practise islam to marry a muslim. Its pretty sad in a country like Dubai, which allows the sale of p0rk, has Halloween merchandise on sale everywhere, and the biggest x-mas tree set up in Dubai mall every year, where temples and churches flourish, and which obviously allows, encourages and makes it a point to show that other faiths are welcome, that this poor lady has such a hard time holding on to a few baubles and trinkets, which may have some special meaning to her. Sad really. I agree with whoever else surmised that this probably is more to do with control, and the systematic cutting off of all sources of comfort and happiness, than anything to do with religion. Edited post to make it relevant and remove superfluous religious talk. <em>edited by Redrec Tangle on 15/10/2014</em>

Don't divulge too many details about your personal life on a public forum, if you need advise from someone who has had a similar experience ask for their email ID and take it offline or ask for support groups/organizations/lawyers details. People may or may not believe you its not your problem to plead your case by divulging details you'd rather keep private. Dubai is quite inter-linked and EW has a massive non-member readership. Its your life, your problem, your prerogative how much to share, your business.

I've always refused to lift share, mainly for this reason, but you can't stop your kids having sleepovers... I usually take the reluctant view that if someone is kind enough to have my child for the night or take him out somewhere, then I have to trust that the other parents will look after him as I would - after all, they are managing to take care of their own kids !! The OP must be new to Dubai if she is still shocked by this...sadly it's all too common and short of challenging the offenders when we are able, there's nothing we can do about it... Why can't you stop your child having a sleep over. I would never let my children, male or female sleep over - do you really know who else is in the home? What your child is doing? So many tragedies occur everyday all over the world in seemingly "normal" homes - experienced our children will never recover from. My children have never had sleep overs for this very reason and are none the worse off socially because of it. Don't think you can protect your children all their lives. You say they are none the worse for it but I can still point to the kids in my school who were overprotected as children. They're still afraid of things and truthfully, a bit strange. There are plenty of ways tweens and under can have social interactions with friends - playdates, parks, birthday parties or just biking/swimming outdoors. Going on family adventure hobbies or taking up a sport are other ways to teach children to take risks. How is not letting them go on sleepovers being overprotective if you are allowing them to do other fun stuff instead? Its a bit sad to see a grown up label diffident children as 'strange', especially when that child may be painfully aware of it him/herself. They also tend to act more awkward when they can sense a person being judgmental. Stand up comedians and stage actors have often spoken of difficult childhoods battling shy personalities, they go through real testing times. It takes a lot of pressure to turn coal into diamonds.

Never understood the purpose of a rant about other threads. if you don't agree with what others say, just tell them and move on. And I've never understood posts that criticise others' choice of thread topics - is the OP's choice any less valid than yours ? It's about the indirect criticizing and disagreeing with other posters I don' get. Just tell people you don't like what they say and then move on. This is called sarcasm loooool, I wasn't critisizing other posters :D Dont you like my sense of humor Marroush? Oh no wait, sarcasm is only fun when you initiate it, but if others use it you get defensive, dont you? Btw Marroush king size is not super king loooool Not to split hairs, but to be frank, as long as you have opened a thread ranting about how others post on the topics that invite opinions (good or bad) you cant really point a finger when someone else comes along to have a rant about yours.

Sleepovers are no safer than anywhere else, if for some unfortunate reason a child is left under the supervision of the wrong sort of adult. I am quite sure of reading a story about a woman now grown up, who talked of being molested by the dad of her friend in whose house she was having a sleepover as a child. Cant remember how he managed to find her alone or get the opportunity but predators will find ways if they are so inclined and trusting children are easy targets. It doesn't bear thinking about but it does happen.

I've only ever seen male cleaners at our school and I believe most of the PE or swimming teachers are also male. I don't have a problem with it - your Head Teacher is male, does that bother you also ? DT, I cannot believe you have written this and think for one minute it is acceptable policy to place children at risk. Does your Head teacher go sit in the girls’ bathrooms with his phone during the busiest period of the day or do you think should he need to send someone in he would send a female member of staff? Seriously please tell me what risks you do not see? Do you think because we live in Dubai children are not at risk from predators? A litte more research and you will find the risks are very real in a school environment. edited by Lolacat on 05/10/2014 You would think if there ever was a time to be a doubting Thomas this would be it.
