Return To Singapore

We had a reasonably early breakfast and hit the road, at first it was looking like it would be a dreadful journey, however past Seremban the roads cleared and we had a good run. Due to the free booze in the Horizon Club I had not drunk all of the beer bought to keep in the room (who pays the hotel mini-bar prices?). So Alice took over the driving and instructed me to finish off the Carlsberg Specials we had bought in Malaysia, this seemed a very reasonable idea to me and so I had a very pleasant ride with no fears for the Singapore customs. And so we hit Singapore roads once again, easily distinguished by rather more lane discipline than that generally shown in Malaysia.
We decided that once we hit the condo we would not want to go out again, so we went to Tony Roma''s for ribs, carefully ordering sufficient so that later meals were assured. Alistair offered a most sincere kiss to show his appreciation of the holiday but for some reason it did not attract me to any great extent, I trust he will improve in his approach as his occasional crush on a girl at school develops into greater things.
Singapore is a grand place and we are pleased to be back, but KL has so much to offer, if somewhat less organised and indeed safe as Singapore, that we would visit again or return to live there with great pleasure. This is of course at least partially due to the wonderful friends that we have there.
