Unless you are a superstar at work, I would be very surprised if your current employer would welcome you back with open arms under those circumstances. You clearly do not want to work for them and taking you back for your convenience now you are pregnant....hmm not sure that is going to work.

Had mine done just befoe left Japan, did notice salon on Club street offering the treatment a couple of days ago. Keratin really does solve the problem of humidity and hair frizz. Expensive but worth it for the total lack of effort in maintaining straight frizz free hair.

Also not sure how they could pay her the full amount then have her return 50% of it, there would be any number of tax and benefits issues doing that as your gf would be liable for tax on the full amount.

Just arrived here so don't know but if you can post when you find out! I know microgynon are available over the counter in HK and Thailand. I use marvelon and have just been buying a yearly supply every time I go to Hk or get friends to bring them over.

If you look at online delivery services for supermarkets such as cold storage you can get a good idea of grocery costs.

You will also need insurance for your stuff, as it is self packed the options for insurance are reduced. You can usually get cover for 1.5-2.5% of replacement value.

Have to say am very impressed with the speed of the EP online service, my firm submitted my application at 6.15 pm last night, got approval letter by 11.30 am this morning, can't really argue with their turnaround times!

Thanks again, will do some investigating on the appliances in question!

Thanks calmday - appreciated. Also a slightly stupid question but it has been many years since I failed physics A'level, if I get a 1000w transformer, I am presuming using it for lower wattage items won't be an issue, the only issue will be using it for higher output devices? I will need a few for k...

Above posters mention 100v-220/240v transformers, any recommendations on where to purchase in Singapore or whether it would be better to buy here (Japan) and ship?
