Hi everyone


I am desperate to get away for 4/5 days in the sun in early January. Don't want to spend a fortune and their seem to be a few deals on to ther Middle East. Anyone who has been to Dubai, Oman (Muscat) or Qatar could you please let me know how you got on and any recommendations of places or hotels. I don't need watersports etc or child-friendly place just somewhere peaceful to chill out with perhaps an odd excursion in to desert and visit to some of the must see sights.


Thankds as ever for your comments TS

Spent 6 nights at the Al Qasr in Dubai a few years back. Overlooks the 6/7 star Burg and you have the waterpark next door. No building work around the hotel but lots going on everywhere else. 10 min cab ride to indoor ski thing. would recomend the resort so many bars and restuarants that we did not really leave the resort. Would go back if I had money.

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
    • So dangerous!    Can you be more specific about the road this was in and when you report it?  Maybe there’s some CCTV footage available
