Water thistle

Hi everyone Hoping someone can help me. SP services are saying that they are fitting a water thistle in all condos in city square residences. From my understanding the water thistle is a device that limits the amount of water coming through a tap saving on water usage, but it can also effect water p...

In my opinion it's a lot of area to cover in such a relatively short space of time, it may be worth considering cutting down and maybe do just England and scotland, you will get to visit less places but might enjoy it more. The reason I say this is I would want to spend minimum of 3 full days in Lon...

Oww and It's not as safe as Singapore but I wouldn't worry to much about the crime .. As long as you use common sense and don't go roaming around in the rough estates (which as a tourist you should have no reason to go to) you should be fine.

If you are a confident driver may be worth considering hireing a car and driving, this way you can see as many places as you want without being at the mercy of public transport, you can request for a car with satnav and hire cars are relatively cheap in the uk. There are 2 large hire company's and y...

I doubt you will get a studio for that budget, not a condo anyway but you would get a decent share condo.

All depends on what area you are after and what standard of place.

I'm assuming your message is a poor attempt at sarcasm.. What's being a sheep got to do with it.. It's a popular gym for a reason. I tried it out for 3 days enjoyed it, and was happy with the package I was getting so i joined. Would joining a gym that i didn't like make me less of a sheep? Because t...

Hey

I've just joined fitness first as they do them. The lady also said to me that one of the FF clubs even has a outdoor rooftop class.

P.S, my reply should have started with "are you referring to Malaysia? When you say malaka"?

If so my post still stands, if I've totally got the wrong end of the stick and there is such a place called melaka then ignore my post.

Geography was never my strong point for me :)

Would be really good if you can post the outcome. Reason I ask is I seemed to have got a really good deal on my condo (compared to what other people in the same place are paying), however since I moved in the agent has been showing new buyers around, my thinking (wrong it may be) is that the landlor...

how funny is the original post... i really like singapore but how true are all those things.

however my pet hate was missed, people trying to enter a train before the people getting off have a chance to get off (and it even says everywere to allow people to alight first).

Grrrrrrrrr

I would recommend you just go at it alone, it’s not difficult to find places and you will learn lots more this way. Or if you are using an agent don’t tell them you are new, just say you are coming back after being away for some time, don’t ask me why they can’t just set some hard and fast rules (al...
