Thanks Ladies, that's pretty much what I thought too. Would you have any advice as to what vitamin supplement I can give him to help keep his immune system strong please?

I renewed my daughter's passport just after Christmas and it came back in under 3 weeks. I didn't receive the old passport, so I emailed them. Go onto their site and type in the search box 'contact details passport application', then click on 'passport advice & complaints'. You'll see a link to 'online enquiry form'. You can send them a mail from here. I got a response a few hours later. HTH.

They shuffle the kids every year at my daughter and son's school, which I feel is a good idea as it gets them used to making new friends and not being so upset if a good friend leaves. Towards the end of the last school year, I did email the registrar and ask if possible that my daughter could be kept with two or three of her closest friends and they managed to do it.

Hi Mom, Jumeira Beach Park is one of our favourites, mainly because you've got toilets, showers and food all in one place. Also, if your visitors have kids, there's the park area with climbing frames and grass to kick a ball round. HTH

Hi MrsDB, I had two natural births here. The first was in a private hospital and they really pushed the epidural on me, which I finally gave in and took after being induced (but that's a whole other story!) The second was the birth I really wanted and was at Al Wasl Hospital (now Latifa Hospital) Just gas and air and a midwife to look after me. My advice would be to stand your ground and insist on a natural birth. Surely the only reasons to succumb to a c-section would be if yours or the baby's health was at risk? Best of luck!

Hi Ladies, on the subject of fabric softener, I add it into the drawer of my front-loading machine, but it doesn't seem to distribute evenly in the wash and I sometimes get a stain or two on some of the clothes. What am I doing wrong?

No, I agree with Derien. I know of several people who lost their jobs over the summer and had to leave Dubai in a hurry!

Can recommend McGettigan's at the Trade Centre. They have free drinks (selected wines, spirits, beers) for ladies between 8 and 10pm. Music is a little loud, but maybe I'm just getting old!
