Commute time for kids to SAS -- our kids our 7 and 8 and we didn't want them catching the bus at 6:45 a.m. 2. Cost of housing -- your housing allowa...

Thanks for the reply. I looked at some of the events but nothing interested my wife. She's decided that we'll go to a nice restaurant, hit some dancing and enjoy some new places in Singapore.

Advice on fun couple activities in Singapore

I just moved my family to Singapore last week.

This week is my 11th Anniversary. My wife wants to go out on a date without the kids. Any advice on where to take her?

She loves plays (musicals and dramas) and going dancing.

Thanks,
Mike

Does anyone know if it's possible to purchase new 220V AC adapters for US electronics? I have a few pieces of equipment that I had to bring from the US -- most notable is my VOIP modem that carries my US phone number with me. This allows our friends to call us as if it's a local US phone call (and w...
