The flight was ok, there seemed to be every delay possible, but I don't mind waiting for a plane to be ready to fly. Bloody freaky actually, my flight was due to leave at 2pm and after a 30min delay or so we were ready to board. On the plane I was sat next to a german chick and a danish chick. Got talking to them and were speaking of the delays when I said that we were doing alright cuz it was only 2.15pm. What the? They then said it was more like 2.45pm, my frickin watch stopped at 2.15pm. That gave me a bit of a chill, but all was good and the big silver bird took off. In between talking to people, movies, trivia games vs Paul in seat 49A (can I just say that Paul was a pushover), eating, playing with my virtual pet, and everything else for 11 hours we then landed. So everyone gets up, and guess what, another delay of some description. All good, I am in no rush. Ended up arriving to the (mediocre but within my budget) hotel at 11pm. I crawled up to my room, sorted some stuff, went to the bar for a beer and then crashed and burned around 1am.
Saturday was full on. Got up at 8am went down to the concierge (no where near as good as me) to plan the day. I wanted to go for a walk around to possibly grab a cellphone, then tourist it up. Got my cellphone, which was more than I wanted to spend but hey shit happens. I think most electronic goods are cheaper than back home but I dont reckon by much, who knows. 1G USB stick for $20, don't say I don't buy you anything Kimmy. After walking around heaps and heaps I had my city tour booked for 2pm. That was pretty cool, went to see all the sights, sounds and cultures of Singapore. Met a dude from Dublin so pretty choice to have someone to talk to. The tour went til 6pm, I grabbed some food (I love rice, noodles, and spicy food so Singapore and I get on pretty well) then at 6.30pm my zoo night safari started. That was amazing! Really fun. Met a family from Taupo there and they were a good bunch. Saw my 2nd favourite animal (behind the ferret, and I guess most other pole-cats) in the world, a bearded pig. Seriously wicked critter, highlight of my stay here. Was going to catch up with 'dude from Dublin' and go to Ministry of Sound, but I was pooped.
Today has been very different. I've had a lazy Sunday really. Just been mucking around relaxing, and now walking around Orchard Rd, the main drag. I was going to head to Melaka in Malaysia but gave it a miss, would have been a bit more expensive...I can always come back.
I'm having a ball, and of course that's due to the most part of not having to be at work. I will probably go out for a few beers in a bit, then who knows really. Aah yeh that's where I'm heading, Hooters. Beaut.
They boot me out at 9.30am tomorrow to the airport where I will travel to London. Should be sweet as kumara. Man, everyone here has a story to tell, quite a few characters. Here are some pics for your viewing pleasure.
P.S I'm having chewing gum withdrawals, might just bite my arm off in a minute ... !!! aaah that's better.
P.P.S My hotel is in one of the photos, can you guess which one it is?
P.P.P.S My simcard doesn't work here, forgot to suss out roaming didn't I. Kim's on the case and it may be revived but don't bother texting til I get my new UK card.
Peace.

Hey Matty
(Take 2 - I didn't realise I had to be logged in to leave you a message)
Looks like you are having an awesome time already! Just remember to stay away from those ladyboys! Heehee!
Well not much to report here. We all behaved ourselves on Sat night - yes me included! :-)
That is except for Jezz, who after a train wreck and a vodka chaser thought it might be fun to puke his guts out! Haha!
We missed you though - we kept expecting Matty to show up - but you didn't of course. No nudity either.
Well better go and do some work.
Have fun babe.
Hugsssssss,
Anna :-)
PS. Give Ray a kiss from me - that's right - I said a kiss - and I expect photographic proof!
Hey lets not waste time with Ray kissing. Yeah man I'll send through the photo.
I believe you can just post as anonymous and just pop your name down the bottom.
Good on ya Jez. I'll phone you guys later when I get to London. Should be a good weekend then this coming, with Kims last hurrah.
Love ya!
Hey Ding Dong,
Hope you have a great time. So sad you did not go to Melaka. I have arranged with my friend to pick you up and take you to the dawn Safari where you can see the Ninja turtle....
All the best mate
sup bro! sinapore sounds and looks wicked. You don't have to kiss ray, but give him some 'ManLove'. lol. Just been talking to mum and dad, they said: all the counter-tops and tables and 90% of the floor had a sticky substance on it (wasted cocktails). the train wreck is the easy part, its that Vodka chaser which kicks you in the balls.
hey trouble,
sounds awesome!!!! keep on with the updates! hope your ferret/hamster is still alive and well
gemz
It's a good job you'll be meeting up with your bitch soon Matty (hey Kim!) - those close up mug shots would be too much to take for your whole trip.
Glad you enjoyed Singapore, it's a wicked little city! Kinda freaky how clean everything is there. But don't worry, there's plenty of rubbish for everybody in the UK.
Heya Babes
Im so glad that you had an awesome time! You deserved having a proper holiday! But i was very jelous that i wasn't there with you!! Miss you but i will see you again soon.
PS Love the pics, Don't worry i'll be there soon to help with the self portrate photos :)
PPS Only a week of smoking to go for you... how does it feel, hehe!!
Hey MFBM!
I know you're over in London-Town now but still doesn't mean I can't comment on the fun that was Singapore. Sounded awesome mate. So jealous of the Night Safari and O M G the bearded pig!! Sounds ammmmazing.
Glad you had fun!
P.S Hope you stayed a breast of things at Hooters.. and didn't let anything get out of hand. ;p hehehe
P.P.S Be cool!
Just for the record Mike, there were no wasted cocktails (no way I would let anyone waste a creation), but some of the sugar solution and juices may have inadvertently missed the shaker! Jeremy is very lucky he only got given a vodka chaser, rumor has it it was only a "dont waste Absinthe on him" comment that changed the chaser!
