Hi Namarie - as far as art supplies go, I suggest bringing as much of it with you as you can, and being prepared to top up your stock whenever you go overseas as the product choices are very limited here. These are the two main art supply ... Read More

Great Veekram - thanks again. Veronique Read More

Haha! Well Doctor, your patient is a bit big and cumbersome for me to bring to you - are you able to make a house-call, and open it up here for a look? If so, I'll send you my phone number and address by PM. I live in Trou aux Biches - I'm ... Read More

Hi Veekram Thanks for replying so quickly. Its a Panasonic plasma, model # TH-P42G10A, and is about 10 years old. It turned itself off after a few seconds and the red light flashed 11 times, then stopped. (I'm not weirdly observant - I ... Read More

Hi Gabby I'm getting there - it's been a long road! I've recently come back from overseas, so am getting myself organised - so far, I'm busy on Tuesdays and Saturdays, and am planning to do an art course - no idea yet what day. I ... Read More

Hi Gabby The garden project sounds right up my alley! I assume that it's in Tamarin? I live in the North, so would only drive down once a week - what days do you all work? Please let me know the relevant details. Regards Veronique PS Are you the ... Read More

Hi Ann - what are you doing in Blue Bay? I know it didn't happen, but we were supposed to meet up cause you lived up the street from us! Read More

So Arnie - unless I've missed something, what was your decision? Read More

We live in The North - never used Green Cross (but might try them some time - though no-one we've asked has ever recommended them so far). We've tried two: Hans Biomedical Lab Ltd - don't bother - went for full blood tests, needed to go back two ... Read More

I agree with everyone else - if you're in decent rental accomodation, everything will be provided. We moved here (permanently) and once we started looking around, realised we should have paid the freight to bring all of our stuff, instead of ... Read More

Peaches, I have to agree with you on that one. My parents are Mauritian, but I was born and raised overseas, so can't speak Creole. The cheating Mauritians (fortunately they are not in the majority) can see me coming a mile off. Even if I were to ... Read More

Hi again Misty Sorry for the delay - that paperwork was hard to track down. As I said, this was over 5 years ago, so things might have changed. We had to have our cat: - microchipped - vaccinated against feline enteritis, rhinotracheitis and ... Read More

That'd be great - I'll send my contact details to your inbox. Might have to be in a couple of weeks though, as I'm still recovering from what I think was a mild case of chikungunya, and so am lazing around the house a fair bit! Meanwhile, I've ... Read More

We're from Perth - been here 5 years and it's only the second time we'll have been back! It's my mum's 70th, and family from all over the place are getting together. Haven't seen my two aunts who live in Tassie since our wedding which was almost 15 ... Read More

Hi Mistyb - we brought our cat from Australia 5 years ago - as far as I can recall, she only needed a rabies shot (even though there is no rabies in Australia!). Will look up the old paperwork later today and let you know what the procedure ... Read More

Hi again - just want to say a very big thank you for your advice - found a great girl from the US which will enable us to have a worry-free time back in Australia. Thanks again Veronique Read More

True - got confused cause people talked about chlorine. So sorry! Read More

Thanks - will definitely try that. Read More

Hi Hey Jude (or is it just plain Jude???) - did you have any luck finding your friends a place? We are in the opposite position - we are looking for reliable and honest house, garden, and cat sitters for two weeks in April for our house in Trou ... Read More

No they don't - so you shouldn't drink tap water - fortunately, bottled water is cheap here. Read More

Personally, I wouldn't dream of buying groceries on-line here (and not just because my husband does the shopping!), but because of the state of the fruit and veg in most supermarkets - especially SuperU. Also I find checking the Use-by-Date is very ... Read More

Ok - I am now sorry to have posted a response to this post. Today I received my third private message from would-be Mauritian beach boys asking me for contacts! Although I have just ignored them (and laughed a little!) to date, I need to send out ... Read More

I've met European (female) tourists who actually come here to find a good-looking boy and pick him up for the duration of their stay. They pay for meals etc and are quite open about the whole thing. I guess those same boys just try their luck with ... Read More

For basic supplies (canvasses, brushes, paints etc) try Grand Baie Bookstore - they are on Sotisse Rd - just ask someone for directions. For a greater range (and better quality though also higher prices!) - you'll need to go to Trianon Shopping ... Read More

The most effective repellent we've found is Peaceful Sleep (I prefer the stick to the spray) - from any supermarket. Also smells good! Read More

Hi Ann - haven't been to either but both have been highly recommended - Dr Duffaydar in Goodlands - 283 9739 - trained in England with modern equipment; and another one in Grand Baie whose name I don't know but whose # is 263 7485. The latter ... Read More
