Hi Jsmami,

What is "chinese go"? is it go-chess?

Hi KL, Jsmami,

Just informed by my son's school that there will only be 3 assessments (combined tests and exams) starting this week. Should be even less workload.

My son is already super lazy and care-free. Less assessments means super super super .... lazy!!!

Jsmami,

my son learn Chinese Go for 1 year. he is elementary level 2 right now.

for this activity, i am also wonder is it continue or not? He show great interest at first, but after that he is just so-so.

Che,

For the scout, pls pm me which outside orgainisation's team at Kln side or TKO is good if possible. Thanks.

As there are no scout at my son's school, so i need to find outside organisation.

For the peers. it is very hard to judge. I learn the lesson that my son knew the X-language at school even at private school but not the Govt's school.

LSW,

Piglet now tries to use some 疑似 sounds for X-language.
For Engl X-language, he just says what I say (i.e. shxx). He knows that the real meaning of this is poo-poo.
Have heard him say fxxx, but I stopped him and told him this was vvv bad language, must not say it.
And for ALL X-language, I ask him whether he knows the meaning, if not, then don't try to use them, cos he doesn't even know what he means. Which stops him from using it.

He picked up the following X-vocab somewhere, without knowing the real meaning, only knew that adults would react immediately to these words : gay, fxxx, and 淫

BS,

Did u buy the fridge from HKTA ? I think HKTA offers the good price with all electric appliance.

All the fridges are durable, so just consider the size and price of the fridge !

Bought a fridge already last Fri, delivered last Sat : Mitsubishi, 385L, $4500. ($5290 in Jusco last week, even with 5% discount = $5025)

No I got it from a shop next to TCS, called Money Worth Service Centre 慳錢樂. They've been in NP area for ages. Delivery is done directly by the distributor. I just compared the px with Jusco and

, did not check with TA.

There are some good Sing grammar books eg in TA, Popular. Some are for grammar in general (for P4-5, P5-6, etc), some for vocab, some for specific areas eg prepositions, adj, adv, phrasal verbs.......

Another one is Brighter Grammar, Longman, found in CommPress and places like 3Luen, total 4 books, ~$7x - $8x each. Some of it is still used by DGJS.

Finally redeemed my SingAir air tickets for HK-Sing-HK in late Dec.

What they showed as "waitlisted" on website while I tried to do redemption booking turned out to be "confirmed" tickets when I finally clicked to confirm. Very funny.

Airport taxes + surcharge for adult = HK$7xx, for kid = $5xx.

TTM,

You reminded me : I'd better buy some Sing suppl ex material from Sing on this trip.

KL,

:tongue:
I just charge ALLl utility bills of both TCS and home, and insurance premium, to my credit card account.

A few yrs back tax bills could be charged to cr card too and get mileage points, and we went on HK-SF trip too. So accuumulated quite a lot at the time and is spending my reserves on mileage. And I also used my mum's mileage to get an air ticket for myself :lol .....
They all add up ga.

Re : ergonomic desk from Sing

That time I went to Sing with Audreymom, we found a shop selling ergo desk, on Orchard Road. Price at that time ~HK$3xxx, if you have 2 or 3 ppl going to Sing then should be able to take it back to HK with you.
I have the leaflet in my office.
There is a website but shows nearly nothing.
Let me dig out and post the link.

http://www.kinderfun.com.sg/

But their website is useless : no change since so many yrs ago. No info except for their address and tel no.

Anyway, the ergo desk looks like the one some in Ocean Terminal previously, but the edges are a bit raw, not as smooth as those from Ocean Terminal.

Show you the pamphlet next time we meet. When ?????
