    We're not going out either.....home prepared Japanese dishes....much better, fresher, tastier and hugely less expensive.
    All done by my own fair hand

    Got to watch the budget, my trusty old Merc is up for MOT next Tuesday ..hehehe

    I flew back from Singapore on Monday night to spend a few nights with the missus (actually for other reasons, which weren't so pleasant) and gave her some chocolates and flowers, but sadly had to fly back on Wednesday evening.
    After two months living in a hotel room in Singapore I was glad to be in my own bed with my wifey. She already opened the card and the kids helped her demolish the chocolates...

    Everyday is Valentines in a Sogo Hotel! Always makes me laugh to see the hourly rates posted outside.

    Yes, those beds certainly get a good workout every day ...even more surprising then, that the place is so peaceful, clean and well-run.
