Re: @ 老友過來傾一餐 @

Buddies,

I am really happy today. I found a St Mary's (got good HKCCE- she showed me her cert on my request) tse tse to play with bee every day for 2 hours when I am at work. The wage is surprisingly reasonable. I hope she could be my child-carer (more on playing and reading aspect) when I am away la. Don't think my maid could do that job well esp on Chinese teaching.

The tse tse might study med in HKU. Seem to be a 高材生!! Hope it goes smooth. The first trial will commence this Friday la.
顺便多个人(除我阿姨外)睇住我屋企+工人!!!

Re: @ 老友過來傾一餐 @

Holmanma,

You were righit, I didn't show up today, cos I fetched piglet from school and went OUT.

First for food, then to Idxx where I picked up my coupons, and bought some books.
Then went back to my office for photocopying before going to apply for SAR passport renewal. Then noticed that the PT tse tse at Idxx charged me the cost of 1 set of 4 books (Kids Safety Handbook which you got already), 4 times !!

(So pls read your chit before paying / leaving - this girl miscalculates !)

After submitting the SAR passport form we went to NP, then back to Idxx for refund ---- and piglet found some books and magazines on weapons, which he insisted that I buy and charge to his account.==> spent more on books and bought an additional set of coupons.
So I ended up being a donkey.

Gloria,

No wonder you sounded funny - you didn't understand my alien language !!

Re: @ 老友過來傾一餐 @

OH.. too bad,

Hongniba won't accept HK customers' oders any more la:

对不起，香港的订单我们从这个月起不能再做了。因为开了香港中行帐户以来，只有你和另外两三个客户买书，而且购买的周期比较长，金额也不多，而我们的帐户每年要50元年费，每一笔提款要扣手续费，查款也不方便，上个月我们的卡在广州的中行柜员机上就给吞了。处理起来很不方便。香港那边的送货员我们也很难控制，出了投诉也很麻烦，所以只好是不做了。如果你实在想要的话，可以托广州的朋友帮忙。

不便之处，还请体谅！

Re: @ 老友過來傾一餐 @

Buddies,

Yesterday among piglet's preys, there were 5 packs of Mainland Chin arts and crafts things, smallist colourful boards with cut-outs which would become planes, weapons, rockets, etc.
We bought 5 packs, only a few $ each.

This morning I opened all the boxes to wipe once (my habit).
Then I found that ------ those things including the small paper box holding them, all gave out a rather sour smell. Even after wiping and spreading out on the table, the smell persisted.
I put them all in a plastic bag, and hung them up near to window to blow away the smell, but I could still smell it 5-6 ft away.

In the end I decided to throw them away.
I think the smell came from the glue and the material of the contents and paper holders.
And if you bought the "Kids Safety Handbook" recently, look up the 1st story under the "School" handbook, and you will see what I mean.

Next time I buy anything from Mainland China, I will put it under my nose and SMELL it first before I buy.

The $$$-seeking merchants in Main.Chin are really uscrupulous !!

Adrianmama,

Indeed, I like the below two VERY VERY much too besides the Between Parent & Child one.

Many practical and good ways of communicating with kids ga.
心灵的成长
(日)平井信义著

开发婴幼儿的智力和才能 (日)七田真著

As for English one, I like the below one (similar advocates but from the western world!):

How To Talk So Kids Can Learn by Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish
<--- suitable for teachers as well as parents

Che,

what are the brands you could find for bb/ kid fashion ah?

Re: @ 老友過來傾一餐 @

che,

it sounds like a 'treatment' trip for YOU. Where did your 'bored'(maybe!!

) hubby wander when you were being 'treated'?

Don't think my hub will allow me to have such type of trip with him. More for ladies ?!?!?

che 寫道:
GC,

Day 4 - BF in hotel; prenatal body treatment at Clarins at 12noon; late lunch/tea at Food Loft in Central Dept Store; shopping at Central; dinner at Curry & More (good Thai rest near Conrad)

Re: @ 老友過來傾一餐 @

Che,

Kitty and HMM as well as myself have completed/ just started Practical English Phonetics and Phonology . There would be level 2 and parent workshop. But the basic course is the prerequisite for attending parent workshop. There will be new classes in the future. No need to rush.

Re: @ 老友過來傾一餐 @

HMM & KL

Are you going to attend the day-time parent workshop (HK$1200 for 12 x 2.5 hours) or the night time course ($380 for 3 sessions)?

I must ask DK again this friday the difference. May be the $1200 workshop is the combination of "

ractical English Phonetics and Phonology" and the "parent workshop"???
