Hi guys,

Happy New Year to you both also. I am also living and working here in Singapore. I have been reading Pistonheads regularly for years although very rarely post. So rarely in fact that when I tried to reply to this post I could not remember my login details and ended up registering again!

What, Drunks, Yanks or Drunk Yanks?

He will get fleeced by customs, what ever he is trying to get out, unless he goes through a registered mover.

I was particularly pissed off this morning, i received a Christmas card sent from UK on 22nd, it was extremely obvious that it was a Christmas card and also very obvious that some asshole had been into it and stuck it back together again. I doubt very much that they were checking for speeling (sic) mistakes either, that's the third time its happened too. I suppose that's the joys of living out here.
