12 hours on a 'plane and we just landed at Changi Airport. Just a little bit jet-lagged and the weather is just a little bit bleedin' hot. At first glance Singapore is clean and lively. The taxi driver pointed out where to go to get a full-on nosh up for S$3.00 0 about a pound. Bargain.
Below is Trish at Clarke Quay. So, what exotic oriental fare did we nosh on our first night. Well, an Italian , actually. I needed pasta. Tp the right is Trish with our good friend Anjana, who lives and lurks in just outside the city.
The frog is currently reposed on the absolutely huge bed on the 18th floor and shows no sign of coming round. Trish has gone into blagger mode and has thus far achieved the following...
Free champagne at the Heathrow Hilton (they asked if our stay was for a special occasion and she said yes. Well, I suppose Wednesday is quite special).
Breakfast at Witherspoons in Terminal 4 was supposed to be 18 pounds (sorry no pound sgn on this keyboard) but the cashier couldn't count and it cost only 5.
We got our airplane seats moved to the exits so plenty of leg room.
We (I) chatted up the very blonde air-hostess and she delivered a free bottle of champagne and luxury first class goodies to our seats.
So far so good. Time to find the bar.
Night-time safari planned for tomorrow if we wake up.
Paul & Trish.

Sounds like the Whitstable Cinema. You can drink but you can't chew gum.
I sent you a great picture of oriental cuisine after you left, as received from Captain Gurton.
When you get back you can say if you ate anything like it on your sojourn.
