Re: Anyone recomend a good private health insurance company???

We've plumbed for NIB. One of the 'plusses' in SA is that there aren't any 'preferred providers' - so we can go to whatever dentist etc we want. With the extras cover we get 65% of the cost back.

Re: Barbecues and Booze

Make full use of your duty free allowance. Last time I looked it was $44 a bottle. A 700ml bottle! :ohmy:

Re: When can I become a Citizen ?
