i'd love to catch a look, is there a regular flight to look out for? having lived under a flight path all my life this question is less stupid than it sounds. you used to be able to set your watch to concord...back in the days, whole playgrounds of kids shouting concord and pointing up to the sky.

They're not lower. It's one of those "the big things are closer, the others are far away" scenarios.

came back from Cambodia via S'pore last week also. Pore is a dreadful place.


It was me who sat behind you, kicking the back of your seat and crying BTW

Any place has got good and bad bits. Singapore's worst places are Boat Quay and Clarke Quay - the purpose built tourist venues by the business district.


Evens so, they're only as bad as Canary Wharf and those naff little buffed-up warehouses round there.


London's dreadful if you spend the night in a Wetherspoon. etc. etc.

I liked S'pore when I was there but I was a young naval officer celebrating my 21st birthday in Boogie Street - playing tic tac toe with youngster for a singaporean $, drinking Tiger beer, eating from roadside stalls and being entertained by some very friendly QUANTAS airhostesses and avoiding the ladyboys. I thought it was fantastic - but I'm sure its now sanitised and tidy state would be less exotic.

    • Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid.  It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.

    • Hello.   Thanks Nigel and Hparker 😀   I've got new slots available for new students looking for a piano teacher or guitar teacher.   You could start in the new term beginning September, or I'm also available adhoc-styles through the summer holidays at times.   I teach all ages, in most styles, in lots of different ways according to how you learn/like to learn.   Give me a call or text on 07730 402336.   I have connections to lots of performance opportunities/networks too.   I run regular events /student concerts, and play in bands/perform.   Natalie. 
    • So do I, but I think they are in trouble as well.  Anyway, that space wouldn't be big enough.
