Bye Bye Miss Scarlet

So as mentioned earlier, my Scarlet Hotel stay is well and truely over!! And not before time!

Dont get me wrong, the place is fabulous, but I'm SOOOO much happier now I have more than 4 walls and a bathroom to hang out in!!

I thought I'd better post a few photos from my stay at the hotel...just to close that chapter.

So here are some really great staff that I spent and still spend some time with.
Happy & Akbar (yes, her real name is Happy, how cool!!!...and she is pretty much always happy!)


And Farid & Arman. Awesome bunch of people and always had a smile and a kind word.




And I thought I'd better place a few photos of the room too. So here goes.






The Scarlet Hotel is a boutique low-rise hotel in China town. Its basically a row of shop houses that have been gutted and tarted up!
The really did a great job. Thsi photo shows the street, Erskine Road, and the hotel occupies the whole street across the whole second floor. Below the hotel is a row of shops, gift store, florist etc etc.

So there ya go! If you're ever in Singapore, go say hi to the guys at the bar, grab a Sinagpore sling and chill for an hour.

Time Goes By

WOW! Over a month since my last post...where did that month go?!
In that time, sooooo much has happened.
I went to Pulau Pangkil Kecil (private island!!) with my work colleagues and Mr Lederhosen (he just happened to be travelling through Singapore at the time...lucky bugger!!)

I FINALLY moved out of the hotel!! And into a renovated shop house in Little India. (I like it!)

The Eagles won the AFL Grand Final, I ducked across to Pulau Bintan to play 18 holes on the Jack Nicklaus designed Bintan Lagoon Resort...oh! and it was my Birthday!!!

So...I'll be adding details of all these events and more; just so u know whats going on up here.
