Next Week
Allegedly. I’m on the move next week. This will involve me packing my luggage. Instead, I’m editing. Make of that, what you will.
However, there’s plenty on the blog, with the trip report continuing with some Singaporean experiences – both positive and negative (and trust me, some stuff that was very hard to write.
We’ll also have our usual mixture of news, views, commentary and opinions, with whatever comes through the inbox and news feed.
Until next week – Happy Landings!
