Actually...

Now I've had time to re-read your post and mine - I'm not actually sure what I'm apologising for. I didn't say that other people shouldn't use international schools - merely that using local schools was part of our intention to give our children as wide an exposure to the place they are living as po...

Apologies

Apologies road not taken - that was not my intention. It is not the only reason we have chosen to send our kids to local schools. I can see many reasons why people choose the international schools but there are many expats who come here and don't even consider the local school system. I am merely lo...

LOCAL SCHOOLS

Hi folks We're Scottish/Senegalese (an unusual mix I know!!) We've now been in Singapore for 16 months. My son had just turned 4 when we arrived and has been attending a local kindergarten ever since - where he will finish K2 at the end of this year. He's the only expat in his kindergarten and I'm g...

Oh no! That's so annoying when people had gone to the bother of posting it to you!!

My wee girl has started using the fruity stuff this morning but I really object to giving them fruit flavoured toothpaste!

Anyway, looks like I'll just have to wait for my next visitor or a wee parcel from home...

Thanks Lily Pad - I was beginning to think I was going mad - surely (I thought) there must be mint flavoured children's toothpaste somewhere in Singapore! Hopefully someone from back home (Scotland) or my brother and his family in Australia will visit soon and I can ask for a few tubes to be packed ...

CHILDREN'S TOOTHPASTE!

I know this is probably going to make me sound completely barking (especially to anyone who doesn't have kids!!) - but does anyone know where I can buy children's toothpaste in Singapore that isn't fruit flavoured? I used to use Macleans back home (which I think is now being sold under Aquafresh). I...

CAN ANYONE RECOMMEND ANY GOOD HOTELS IN THAILAND?

My husband and I and our two kids (aged 4 and 16 months) are planning to visit Thailand/Phuket in March this year. I still don't know very much about the various areas/resorts. I've been looking at Koh Samui online today which looks beautiful but I'm not sure if my kids would be bored stiff! Can any...

Anyone know where I can buy a thick plastic table cover?

I'm looking for a thick, plastic table cloth/cover. My lovely new table here has already become marked (don't even know what with!) - much to my annoyance. In the UK, material shops used to sell this thick plastic with kiddy designs on it which was great to use as a table cover when small people wer...

Hi Singlady Not sure what you're referring to about "sudden death". Its not necessary to take calcium with Magnesium OK. Its a combination of magnesium and other vitamins and minerals. Here's what the manufacturers say: Magnesium-OK Magnesium-OKConfianceMenovoneSelene-ActivSelenium-ACEZinc-ACEMagnes...

Thanks for the info BodyBlitz. I've used the Magnesium OK brand before so would like to stick with them. Do you supply them on your website or should I order them through E-Bay? Seems weird to be ordering something like this online. Take it there are no problems with things like this being sent thro...
