How about Picotin? They are holding 'Pizza and Trivia Nights' starting 4th March. Bring in your team and your IQ, and win some great treats as you enjoy friendly competition! Your host for the evening will be TJ, whose comedic wit has been known to appeal to just about anyone and everyone. A man who...

Just went there last Saturday for the first time and I absolutely love it!!! What a great mix of crowd, not too pretencious and definitely not a pick-up joint (well, at least not that I can spot). I'm hoping to venture another visit to St James this Fri to Movida/Dragonfly at about 9.30pm. Any takers?

To woofwoof, all the aussies working for my husband are earning the same amount as what they would be getting back home. The draw for them is the lower cost of living and the much lower tax. On average, someone earning 100K should be paying about 9-13% tax. Also, when you start work here, there's no...

I've had 3 c-sections in Singapore. 2 emergency and the last one scheduled. The no of c-sections performed in Singapore is higher than the average around the world. Most doctors here are used to performing c-sections, they can only get better with practice. My 2nd doc has stiched me up very well. Fi...

My husband came over from Melbourne 11 years ago (he was 23 then) and found a job in 2 days. His salary, a miserable $2500 a month. Now, he's on full expat package (only after we went back home and his co sent him back here). 12 years later!!! Realistically, if you were to find jobs in the construct...

An agent once emplained the difference to me (not sure if it's correct). For partially furnished, it means that fridge, bed/s, dining table & chairs and a couch are provided. For fully furnished, you can negotiate for the TV, microwave oven, washing machine, dryer, study table etc. Serviced apartmen...

You can try Dr Teoh Mount E Medical Centre #09-05. He was my doctor and now, he's the doctor for my 3 kids. They've never cried when he administered all the countless jabs. Very experienced.

Hi Singal, Thanks for your contact! I will check it out. As for going to BKK in May, I will have to miss that - it's too soon and my hubby will be away! :( However, I am planning a trip in end June / early July. Anyone who wish to join me? I will be going for liposuction in either Bumrungard or Yan ...

I am going to California fitness. Been doing Body for life religiously for the last 6 months - 6 days a week and the diet. I have not done the confinement - I'd only instructed the maid to cook food with lots of ginger and nothing else (Don't dare to try the liver, pigs trotters etc). Have lost most...

Hi Singal,

I WILL NOT blame you for the decision

Of course, will have to consider all options carefully. The op still has to be safe and the doc reputable. I am just not scared of being awake. Will google on the dangers of being awake during the op.

Thanks for your help!

Hi all, thanks for the tips! Singal, your friend's lipo surgery sounds very cheap. Where did she have hers? I would not mind paying only 2K for all the areas mentioned. The awake part is actually not too bad, as long as there are no pain involved. I have been through 3 c-sections and had been awake ...

Hi, can I check what do you intend to get done?

Sorry, didn't mean to be mad at the end......

Just want to post a new topic as I can't seem to find a definitive answer in the thread "Plastic and cosmetic surgery abroad" and it seems to be taken over by rhinoplasty posts. I gave birth to my third child months ago. I've just looked in the mirror and am disappointed by what I saw - the horrible...
