Thanks ladies. I've called all possible pest control companies and they can only come after eid. National pest control has this heat treatment which is not chemical and they say it will kill the bigs and eggs. This comes in expensive though but saves my washing all my clothes 3 times. Has anyone tried it ? I'm going bats with this menace and lack of sleep !! For now mattress and pillows and boards are in the sun. I will vacuum the bed frame and am off to buy a steam iron. I'm open to any thoughts and suggestions that have helped you !! Fingers crossed !!!

If you are looking for nursery with smaller classes and a lots of interaction between the staff, children and parents I would recommend Little Discoverers. It is a small nursery in terms of the number of children in each class but the premises are very nice, great teachers and lots of different activities. What I really like is that the staff are always happy to patiently discuss my child's progress and any concerns I have .

Lots of hotels if your are looking at staying in the city check out - Cinnamon Grand or Cinnamon Lake. If you want something by the beach then Mount Lavinia hotel is beautiful. Shopping places: Odel, cotton collection , House of Fashion for clothes For trinkets and home stud - Paradise road and Barefoot are a must :)

Doesn't work. Found the idea of being strapped to electronic machines not a very good way to lose weight.

If she actually thinks he is a threat and is scared then while keeping a record of all emails she could also contact the Local police station in Australia where he lives and complain about the abusive emails etc. This kind of issue would be taken a little more seriously there and he might then be monitored in terms of the emails he sends out for a while. My friend had a problem similar to this , but they were both in Australia and it was resolved immediately with the help of the Australian authorities.

Ladies did anyone figure out the best place to get Keratin/ Kerastraight treatment done. If I am looking for something a little permanent then i guess my option would be Kerastraight. Please advice I have super frizyy hair and get a blow dry done once a week!

I have the same problem but have been able to solve it with La Braziliana Keratin and Collegen shampoo and conditioner. Along with a weekly message with their Argan Oil....smells heavenly and my hair looks amazing...a real anti ageing treat for my hair. Bought the stuff at one of these fairs. The company apparently is about to launch soon in the UAE. The gentleman who sold the stuff said I could buy some more directly from him in the meantime. If you are interested send him a mail: [email protected] Would this be ideal to use on non coloured hair that is very dry ? The only places I have seen Keratin stuff is in salons. Anywhere else I can buy in Dubai so I can have a look and chose between their products. Thanks! <em>edited by shash_TQ on 10/12/2012</em>

Galle has some lovely little hotels. You should try Cantaloupe Aqua. We stayed there last month and it was lovely , small not crowded but great rooms and service!

If you can't do the DIY frames from Ikea then try Satwa. They have heaps of frame shops and are quite resonable. There is also a frame shop in Lamcy plaza. I know none of this is close to the Ranches but if you do drive out then these are your options.

Little Discoverers Nursery in safa is really good. Great teachers, British curriculum and they have small classes so there is alot of individual attention. And their outdoor garden / play area is my son's current favourite place :)

Apparently there are quite a few in Dubai! We were warned to be on the look out last month by our little ones nursery and given these instructions in case of such an occurence .. What to do in case of a red back spider bite: DO NOT apply pressure to the bite wound, as this will be extremely painful to the casualty and may spread the venom quicker – as this is a very slow moving venom! Things to look for: · initial bite may not be felt · Puncture marks are not normally visible · Local intense pain follows in approx. 5 minutes after bite · Localised sweating on the bite area · Burning sensation APPY AN ICE PACK AND GIVE THE CASUALTY PLENTY OF WATER TO DRINK CALL AN AMBULANCE – 999 TRY TO TAKE A PHOTO OF THE SPIDER FOR ANTI-VENOM IDENTIFICATION AT THE HOSPITAL, IF POSSIBLE SAFELY CATCH THE SPIDER AND SEND IT TO THE HOSPITAL WITH THE CASUALTY. <em>edited by shash_TQ on 23/10/2012</em>

Hi, My son recently joined this nursery and I am very happy so far. He settled in very quickly and now actually looks forward to going to school and this has really eased my anxiety!! The staff are very friendly and supportive and since they are fairly new the classes are small so there is alot of personalised attention. I am very happy so far!
