Next diving trip now looks to be Cook Islands (mainly for the vistas) or perhaps Sidapan Island in Malaysia. Looks to be one of the best dive sites in the world!! :)

Will be there at Christmas I think..

:D
 
Since last post things have changed. Heading to Malaysia and Thailand in 2 weeks. Will report on the diving.
 
im wondering if the junk sunk...given comments or sans such...
bit like the market i guess. all go, sideways, mine anyway.
if u wernt married id wonder if 'lost' somewhere else in thailand.
a club sammi like comparison would b great, better than waiting to see if bhp n co will ever break out of bounds anyway.
im still waiting for c aitkins 70's type v shaped boom. rather like fat profits market commentary week after week while the market collapsed during the gfc 1. kids will b kids i guess.
buy hi, sell low sort of rational or wait decades.
cheers

From my balcony, Bondi Beach. The best sun rise I have seen, anywhere, even over the outback. Amazing colours, taken with an iPhone, undoctored. :)
 
Yes, you must add it to a stopover between Europe and Oz, Joe. You have to pay for wifi though..... Why do 5 star hotels make you pay for wifi and cheap @rse backpacker not? Huh??
 
I've been in Singa for 2 weeks now with work. I've only had limited opportunity to get out and about and get on the net so my overall opinion is still in train.

This is my 4th visit here, but the longest. Like for most others, it's a stepping stone, not a place to stop. Why stop here?

I've now had a good couple of days to walk around a get to know the place and I'm still unsure. Really confused in fact.

:confused:
 
Went to Changi Chapel / Museum today. Wow, what a shakeup. It's hard to believe that SIngapore fell to the Japanese in such remarkably easy terms. They were outnumbered 3 to 1 and they attacked an island. Pretty poor effort by the British commanders at the time. Poor defensive plan, poor intelligence, lack of courage. If they had have known what was to come under occupation perhaps they would have fought harder. But, they did know the Japanese and their brutality. Why they just rolled over is just remarkable.
 
Well, This chick is truly incredible. I'm gob smacked. :eek:

I don't think I've posted something up like this ever before. I'm just, um, gobsmacked.

 
Leaving Friday for a 5 day trip with 2 nights on a boat and 3 in hotels. Haven't been diving since Jan 12! I might need to do a check dive. LOL. :)
