I'm from Dublin, there is no such thing as "cold" here. My aircon only goes to 18 C. Dublin is less that 10 about now. I was thinking of checking out the Ice Bar - but since I'd go in a T shirt and shorts, people would think I was being an ass. Hang on, they think that anyway...... ah well. Damn its...

You know why I drink, apart from the obvious reasons that it tastes good and they kick you out of strip clubs if you are not drinking.....

I find it allows me to tolerate all manner of tossers who under other circumstances I would find way more tedious.....

Money's too tight to mention - Simply Red Follow the money - The proclaimers Got my money on you - Alvin Stardust Hold on to your money - Howlin' Wolf If you've got the money honey - Percy Sledge Keep your eye on the money - Motley Crue Lay your money down - Bread Life is a lemon and I want my money...

2. infinite amount of plastic bags, soooo bad for the environment. I actually brought by own sturdy green canvas bags from Dublin. The kids who work in Cold Storage know me now and they just pile my stuff up for me to pack my self. However one little thing always happens. No matter when I put my br...

So she'll have to blow herself up twice ?

Damn - the pool of talented people on this planet just get shallower and shallower.

RIP Mr Barker.

Eric, Good topic indeed. Of course, like most foreigners, I envisage a return to my own country to some extent..... but imagining no hassles with paperwork etc, I would go to Alaska. I think that the vastness after small islands like Singapore or even Ireland would be great. Also - I am not too comf...

and with the Irish you meet (there are about 500 of us now)

Don't say things like "Well I probably can't drink as much as you can"

I saw a school report of a frind of mine (maybe 20 years ago!)

"Jason's ambition and ability are not in synch"

His parents lectured him abotu setting his sights higher.

I like this a lot. I will use it going forward in all relationships.

All those symbols are buttons on my calculator. So is "Cancel" and I will use it if it doesn't add up right!!

I just got here a few weeks ago, so I might not have a lot of depth here: But: 1 bus (184) takes you to Clementi MRT 2 buses will take you to Dover ( 184 or 75 then 74) I bus it to MRT and then to Queesway Mall for sports stuff and West mall for "mall stuff" - very handy. You can walk to cold storag...

WOMAD is a definite for me this weekend. I heard Sunday is likely to be very good, and (according to a certain Sikh gentleman) we can bring our own beers etc.

So I'm in.

Mr Troll, Actually its the same for the Irish here, very dangerous!! In only two weeks in the place I have been 1) Sunburnt ! 2) Overfed 3) Nearly run over by bus on Bukit Timah (ok not so good on the rollerblades anymore) AND... 4) Nearly bored to death by nonsensical posts, like yours. That's it, ...

I had a great time, felt right at home from the start. The odd thing was, when a new face showed up, someone would turn to them and say "Hi I am so and so, welcome". Really cool. I was glad to see that UNsing was not exclusionary to the locals. I had though it meant 'non-Singaporeans only'. There we...
