exactly what I was looking for, thanks.

I am now waiting for a response from them, in the hope it is not restricted to school groups or what not.

computer-tech.-short camps f. youth in SG

Besides a few days that we will be gone from SG over the summer break, we are staying in SG. We will spend much time at pools, but I am also looking for some short camps for my 7, 10 and 13 y old. The 7 yr. old, of course, is easiest to please, and the older 2 will enjoy a week away at Camp Castaway...

where to buy boys wear for music band

I thought I had planned nearly everything quite well for our move to Singapore, but we left almost everything with long sleeves or long pants behind, as it didn't look like the kids needed them. We took everything for my oldest son's participation in band - band practice that is. We did not bring lo...

Thank you, thank you, thank you all, that is exactly what I needed as a starting point. At least now I can go and check out each of these names that were all new to me and I had not written them down.

Yum, yum :D
I will definitely check out the libraries for cookbooks after moving.

I will try them all, but I would like to know ahead of time whether I will eat the skin or not, take out the core, keep the core, cut, peel, not peel, use the leaves or not, etc. Many of the fruits do exist in western food stores, but the really exciting ones don't. It is like with rhubarb and spina...

exotic fruits, vegetables

The markets in Singapore were absolutely exciting and intriguing at the same time. I was wondering whether there is a good book out there that has all the fruits and vegetables that are common in Singapore, but not a common sight to Europeans and Americans. They look so exciting, but I would like to...

I must sya, from what I heard of HHH that comes closer to a sport than geocaching, and also to orienteering, as orienteering is a sport where groups of people come together and somehow compete ag...

Is there Orienteering (the sport) in Singapore

Our family is moving to Singapore for about three years, and we all look forward to. We already know that we will be missing skiing :? , but the one thing we will really be missing is our favorite sport: orienteering. I have googled my fingers numb and have not come up with anything. I am aware of t...
