Some people amaze me...

I'm currently sitting in Singapore Airport enroute to the UK, it's early but busy. There is a brilliant soft play area for kids, which has three adults currently inside it sleeping! There are kids running all around them (being encouraged by parents to make as much noise as possible) yet still they sleep. How?!

There are also other people who were sleeping nearby who were woken up by the noise of kids and complained!

This airport is huge, with loads of places where you can go and relax, why on earth would you choose to set up a sleeping camp in the kids area?

Madness.

Is it because it's padded?

Mr f can sleep with children jumping all over him, I have noticed!

Hope your journey home is ok, Pickle

I guess it could be. It's a setup like Beckenham, lots of levels, apparently earlier there was a man asleep right at the top by the entrance to the slide :-)

There are lots of sleeping areas in the airport, with comfy lie flat seats and the like (I always look at them longingly while traipsing towards the play area!).

Ha ha, brilliant, an Aussie Dad has just climbed up to them and clapped his hands loudly to wake them. Mean, I know, but as a parent facing another 13 hours of flying with 3 kids I take great pleasure in seeing their peaceful slumber disturbed.

I love that airport...so many places to relax (if you can!)

Don't suppose you are still there, but there's a lovely spa next to the jungle bit.

If your OH could take the little ones for a bit......

I love it too, which is lucky given the frequency with which we seem to find ourselves there! Hopefully next trip I'll be able to make use of the spa, I used it years ago pre-kids, but this time round baby Pickle hit the "nobody but Mummy is able to look at, let alone hold me" phase.
