We went down to the main street in the centre of Singapore (Orchard Road) yesterday evening as herself wanted to do even more shopping. And boy, was it thronged?! You'd swear it was the last weekend before Christmas or something! They had the place done up well with plenty of lights, as you can sort of see from the first picture.
There was people everywhere and herself even got a headache from the crowds. I found that the shopping gave me a pain in the behind! I was surprised that the police force was so out of date though. The second picture shows Officers Charlie Chanius and Brucius Lee about to escort some troublemakers to the Colosseum!
I should have stayed in the flat, but it was nice to get out and about for a change. Pity it had to be out and about among the clothes shops! She had to pick possibly the only shopping centre in Singapore with no book or electronics shops, so there was absolutely nothing for me to go off and look at (I tried!). So, I spent almost all the time traipsing after her, including the longest 45 minutes of my life in one particular shop while she agonised over a few dresses. Still, the talent was good, so it's true what they say about an ill wind!
