Re: Child support court order HELP PLS DESPERATE

Re: Visiting Singapore for 3 days, do I need vaccinations?

Hi, We're Brits and we live in SG and have had a baby here - you'll be fine without vaccinations. Just have the usual anti-bac hand stuff on hand for when you're eating out and for using the toilet...

Re: Air fares for a UK visit

The skyscanner websites are usually pretty good - and I go through them, see if there's any point being a bit flexible in my travel dates (sometimes you can save a fortune), then check direct on the...

Re: Do you need a car in Singapore?
