My English for your French

I'm rather decent in the English area, it's my first language and I'd like to think that I understand it pretty well. Please note this is US English and not that crazy British English. :) I am interested in practicing my French more. I lived in Montreal for 4 years and learned a bit there, but I nee...

Thanks for all the interest! So far there are 5 "definite" and 4 "probably".

As a reminder, please PM or email me (mkszuch at gmail dot com) with your phone number if you are going to come, so we don't leave the ferry terminal without you. :-)

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Here's the bicycling thing: http://forum.singaporeexpats.com/ftopic90725.html

Don't plan on coming unless you like sweating like a stuck pig. No seriously, it will actually be fun, but you sweat like a pig anytime you do anything outside. :-)

Bicycling on Pulau Ubin: Sat, Oct 6th @ 1pm.

I heard about this last week and I'm going to be checking it out this coming weekend. It's a small island off the east of Singapore that's supposedly rather rural and quiet with a bunch of different animals to see (wild boars, lizards, monkeys, etc). You can bring your own bike or rent them on the i...

That sounds like it could be awesome. With the gamepass its commercial free right? (Assuming you watch it on demand)? You all up for maybe meeting up to discuss some (American) football this Thursday in Holland Village somewhere? If I wasn't heading off to Jakarta for a few days I would definitely ...

Do you have any idea of the cost? I was going to do it in Thailand later this year on a short vacation, because I know it's rather cheap there (about 250 SGD).

Those are very helpful, thanks lynx! I'm abashed I didn't do a better job searching here on the forums, didn't even think about it.

I'll go use the appropriate threads.
