No probs Helen, thanks for the information none-the-less.
Just glad to know I'm not the only one faced with this in the world!

Thank you all for your constuctive replies, and very funny, SMS! Don't get me wrong, I would give birth in Singapore any day (cos the facilities are indeed top notch from what I could gather) apart from the fact my husband holds a Singaporean passport and hence if the baby is born here, he/she will ...

Hello all, We just found out we're pregnant - I would really like to go back home to Sydney deliver the baby. Am also contemplating to go to UK as I'm a dual citizen and would like to pass on both citizenship to my child. Am trying to see if anyone on the forum had similar experiences and trying to ...

Hi Pringles, I live near Serangoon Central (on the other side of the school) and I walk to the MRT everyday for work. The trains on the Serangoon line comes very often especially in peak hour so there shouldn't be a worry. Less than 10 minutes will get you to Dobhy Ghaut. (but haven't caught the MRT...

Got some normal sunscreen for the body from Guardian, but for the price of...

Hi Kristii, Good question, I would like to know too... I guess making new friends help?

Haha, course not!
By local food I mean the brands of dog food one could get here....

bluphoto, Hmm, may be get her to join the forum and meet some new people? I've just moved to Singapore (husband relocated here for work) last week and yes, indeed finding staring at 4 walls in a house with our dog a bit mind numbing (but also trying to catch up on some backlog of work from Sydney th...

Not sure if you Brits are into it - but I arrived in Singapore from Sydney last week and found sunscreen rather expensive to buy and am forever getting burnt by this singaporean sun! Also hot chocolate and good coffee.... and anything pet related if you have pets.... *suffering from caffeine withdra...
