If I was in such a dilemma I would find the quickest and easiest solution and get the job done!!!!!!!!! and not be on a forum wasting precious time. edited by salsB on 08/03/2011 SalsB you had to make sure there's a rude poster here is it?? Not answerable to you but - I got good ideas here. Am in the office, so can't run around! DH is working on the Christ Church Jebel Ali option at the moment. Got a meeting with closest couple of friends tonight to work on this. Surely not wasting time, found out yest afternoon - what else do you want me to do?!? PS - Thanks AriVW edited by Chocoa on 08/03/2011 Im not a rude poster, im saying as it is!!!!!!!! ring your embassy and ask them the quickest way, bare in mind a live forum may not always know the correct answer to your questions anyway.

www.petfooddubai.com will deliver food to your house or office, Royal Canin and ZiwiPeak anyway, can't remember if they do any others. I second Petfood Dubai too, same prices as the pet shops, quick delivery to my door, they do wet and dried food, and now cat litter, which is brilliant, so I dont need to hump it up the road. They do Iam's food too.

Surely the kids would get dropped off and collected afterwards, why should the sibling have to be invited, so If the party was for 30 invited guested and then the siblings all turned up, It would be doubling up on food and party bags, unnecessary expense If you ask me and not ideal for the party planner either.

I couldnt possibly waste too much money on myself, Im a creature of habit, had nothing years ago so never have been able to justify spending mass amounts, when it came to my kids then thats a different story, my spending is now on the little ones, enjoy spoiling them. I buy brand soups, tea and coffee thou.

I would take him to the vet, but can I say to treat ringworm is a task in its self, not sure how you will get rid of it as he will need alot of bathing and treatment, and it can be very expensive.

I lived at the marriott apartments for 12 months and at that time didnt really venture out, thought Cucina was fine, but now I would say their menu is very poor in comparison to other brunches I have been too. The staff are great thou, ready to top your glass up.

Ive had a few holidays there, especially when my girls were small. Protaras is a lovely location for families. I am also arranging to go there in August to meet my DD and her kids for 2 weeks, so will be looking for a family action packed trip for a 3, 5 and 7 year old. Cyprus has always been quite expensive as holidays goes, just dont seem to get good value for money, probably worse now it has the euro. I suppose there are lots of changes since the last time I was there, hope you find the ideal location.

That's really not on Sal, don't blame you for not wanting to do it again.... Thought it was lovely of Andrea to offer to fetch stuff back recently, hope nobody did the same to her... Actually I did offer to bring some stuff back for Dollymud, and Captainjacky wants a couple of her fav things, so ofcourse I wont mind.

Ajman?! You are kidding, right? I definitely don't wear foundation (although I probably looked like I needed it on Tuesday) so can't help you there but that stinks, it really does. Its more of a powder, not liquid.

B*gger. Anything else I might like? Then at least you'd get your $$$ back! Just realised I only wear make-up once in a blue moon. But then, I do need to make more of an effort! Don't you just hate it when you make an effort for someone and end up worse off? When I get chance in the morning, I will check the shade, and if it you want it, no problem, free ofcourse.

Did the person at least give you the $$ up front? I'm guessing not.. edited by shellly on 04/02/2011 No, I bought the foundation from Boots, wasnt expensive as such, but it was pouring with rain, couldnt find a parking spot, got soaked, froze to the bone, and then she said on here would I bring it to Ajman!!!!!! never head anything afterwards. Grrrr

I would normally say its quite safe here, but wouldnt let my DD walk about in certain areas at night, ie Bur Dubai, Karama etc. I would advise If they do head up there at any time in the day to make sure they are fully clothed and not showing any flesh. I lived in Bur Dubai for about 6 weeks, and Im no spring chicken, the looks and stares are unbelieveable, and this was in the day time.

A warm welcome to EW. Lots of people here to give you some good advise. Please rmeember its very very hot here in summer, not so pleasant, especially if you are going to be heavily pregnant. Also please ensure your DH company health insurance already covers you with immediate effect as you are already pregnant.

I loath shopping too, find myself go into a panick. I tend to meet a friend every week and go for a walk and just browse, I find this ok, and If I see something I like I buy it, I never try anything on either. Im am trying to build my wardrobe up slowly but surely. I normally get alot of my stuff when im back home, more of a selection than here, and the prices are alot cheaper than here.
