If I was capable of searching for my old posts I would point out that I posted in the summer that of Gyokeres Sesko and Ekitike that the latter was the most talented. Doesn?t mean he was the right choice, of course.Originally posted by Peter View PostShame they paid twice as much for another centre forward.

A Singapore Sling at Raffles will set you back about 25 quid these days......Originally posted by WES View PostIf I was capable of searching for my old posts I would point out that I posted in the summer that of Gyokeres Sesko and Ekitike that the latter was the most talented.

Have a look at the Padang and City Hall. The heart of old Singapore, where the Japanese surrendered.
Other than that, there isnt much left. Unless you can wangle an invite to the cricket club

I hope you’re staying at Raffles, and not some hideously vulgar upstart like Marina Bay Sands.Originally posted by WES View PostIf I was capable of searching for my old posts I would point out that I posted in the summer that of Gyokeres Sesko and Ekitike that the latter was the most talented.

30 euros for a SS, Peter, so not far offOriginally posted by Peter View PostMadness! What i always loved about it was that only members could buy drinks. So as a guest I was prevented from buying a round

Mrs WES and I had the champagne instead, and quite wonderful wasabi prawns.
Sadly we had to sit next to a very loud Geordie who spent the entire time telling everyone how much money he makes. Raffles is like this, I?m afraid.

You can't take a Geordie anywhere, can you.
I was supposed to be in Singapore two weeks ago but had to pull out. A couple of colleagues went to Raffles and had a sling, and moaned about the price. So I wasn't guessing.
A long walk down the river to Clarke Quay is nice, past the Raffles landing place, and over that weird bridge that a scotsman built, past the Fullerton. There is also a Hooters down there

You've done Singapore, WES. You can relax now
Although there is the Zoo, I suppose.

You'd better rob something. Cutlery, a napkin, something from the bogs whatever. They can't call themselves Raffles and not expect gentleman thieves.Originally posted by WES View PostIf I was capable of searching for my old posts I would point out that I posted in the summer that of Gyokeres Sesko and Ekitike that the latter was the most talented.
