Does anyone have multi room music system that does similar things that I can replace it with ??? It basica...

Hi Jasmini Thanks for the tips. I went to FEF on Sat and got some great stuff. It gets delivered tomorrow. I went to their store in Tampines as they offer a 'gardening' service and are going to come and re-pot everything for me and put some of the plants I bought into the garden. The Tamines place i...

i used to do something like this in Hong Kong. I volunteered to help 2 girls who were having lessons at the British Council before they did their exam. They both came to my house and we did extra exercises from their text books and watchet English TV shows........Then suddenly they both had some oth...

Hi there

Would love to meet up. I also had a PM from another UK expat who would like to meet up.

How about coffee next Weds 11.30 ish ???

I did my first BIG shop this weekend at Carrefour to stock up on all the basics i need for our new house......obviously wine was also on this list and they were doing a special on Jacobs Creek and I decided to buy them for my husbands office / house warming party we will host. The deal was 25 dollar...

I really can't believe that these treatments are good for your skin. If people want to stay out of sunlight and the harmful effects then OK but to put unnecessary chemicals into your body for what will be a short term result can not be good for your skin. Don't these treatments make your skin more s...

Am staying very centrally, near Orchard so Thompson Road is not too far. I am going to explore both Thompson Road and Clementi next week. I think..... Yes will definitely need a hose and other bits and bobs.... :) Have spent 3 years in an apartment so am very excited about the small outside space I ...

Thanks to everyone for the advice on here. We FINALLY agreed terms my husband did the poker face thing and we only backed down on one term that we were a bit indifferent about anyway. It is a HUGE relief and I am now looking forward to enjoying being here and not stressing about not having a home......

We did a tour of The Tanglin club last week and really want to join. There is not a wait list for non Singaporeans at the moment cos they have a % ration of sg / non sg members they can have - apparently. We are just having a problem finding 2 people to support our plication who are actually around ...

PakJohn - did you buy the book reader ?? which one did you get ?? I put the sony one on my Christmas list and told everyone I knew it was the only thing I wanted for Christmas. My husband thinks its stupid and here I am 6 months later without it still..... I couldn't get my hands on one in Hong Kong...

Nath21 thanks for the offer of help but having my husband looking at the contract is more than enough....... I have lost track of wheat the clauses are now. My husband writes contracts daily, and his company employed a lawyer to re-go over everything. We actually have a very good agent, on both prop...

Hi I recently arrived from from the UK via 3 years in Hong Kong where I had a great circle of girlfriends who I would have lunch with, go for country park walks and generally explore during the day whilst our other halves were hard at work.... :D I am late 30's and really looking for people in a sim...
