With a nick like that, it very much sounds like you are here for only a sales pitch. How long will it take for you to make your pitch so we can delete your posts and lock your account?

Nothing like waving a red flag by choosing an obvious nick is it. :roll:

Good pick up SMS! What caught my attention, why would you be asking about homework when most expats' children will be on holidays and therefore won't be assigned homework. So this nick must be from a local....which is alright, but did seem a bit out of season, if you know what I mean.

What age are you referring to childevelopment?

Local school-going kids are having holidays but are spending their holiday going back to school for remedial lessons. Bumper

As I don't live in Singapore, I wouldn't have known they were on holidays.
Still makes me wonder, though, what you're up. :wink:
