be prepared to be knackered when you get off the plane.
don't get lost in singapore airport.
look at the purple gold they have for sale at said airport.......PURPLE GOLD!!
there's a nice outdoorsy bit in it too with plants and fans to go and get some fresh air while you wait.
drink coke on the plane if you feel a bit sick.
TAKE ME WITH YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Even as the stone of the fruit must break
that its heart may stand in the sun,
so must you know pain.
There are only two ways in which one can live their life. One is as though nothing is a miracle, the other is as though everything is.
How long is the changeover in Singapore? It used to be the best place for electricals and gadgets. Wierdly you can get them cheaper from amazon and PLay.com over here now so dont buy any cameras or anything like that!
If its a short stay theres a nice juice bar like Joost. Get sometihng good and fresh inside you. If its a few hours theres lots of shops and stuff but its fekkin hoooooge in there so make sure you know exactly where you get back on the plane, cus you can literally find yourself almost a mile away and still not have left the aitport.
If you like the feeling of a hot towel on your face then go outside lol. Jeeeebus that place is humid but you can have a smoke if you havent given up by then. Remember cigarettes over here are the equivalent to about $12 per pack.
Yup the jet lag coming here is 10 times worse than getting to Aus. But then as someone who knows zero sleep it wont be too bad i guess. Lol.
Just like Aus we have an outback with a less developed peoples too. Its called Wales! Its beautiful in parts but you wouldnt want to stay there. Its a bit like the North of England too. :P
London is no Sydney alas. The weather is poo and theres no where near as many fit girlies for you to look at! Its alot dirtier and more expensive. The food is no where near as good either. No oporto. No cheap chinese and pan asian :(. It does have fine dining but at a price. Altho if you like salt beef bagels theres an amazing 24 hour bagel shop on Brick lane worth visiting. Mmmmmmmmmmmm salt beef and gerkins....
Omg you will get to have decent sausages! You will also be amazed at how crappy your supermarkets are in presentation compared to ours. Our Off licences (bottle shops) dont have walk in freezers either. The pubs are called pubs and not hotels. Our vegetable are alot smaller than yours too. you wont believe how tiny our spring onions are (salad onions/scallions). Steak is pants also unless ou go to a proper butcher, but they are rare.
Like Aus there is a large part of the population that decended from criminals. They are called Liverpudlians and Mancunians. Keep away from them. :P (actually i love livepool but dont tell anyone).
Ooh and you wont have to wait for all the British comedy to get shown in Aus cus you can see it when it comes out.
Bizzarely its actually cheaper to get to Holland and France and Italy and Germany than it is to get from The midlands to the South of England, so you can have plenty of chances to vistit other countries.
To be fair the UK on a summers day is really Beautiful. Its often said that if we had the weather most would never leave to go on holiday. Picture box villages and towns. Gorgeous scenery and zillions of buildings over 200 years old. Yes i know its hard to believe!
You wont believe how tiny our beaches are in comparison. Oh god are you in for a shock. >.<
Maff is being terribly depricating there; I am MADLY in love with England,with London, and kind of think it's the best place in the world [grin]
Erin, uh, I know this is a really stupid thing to ask, but could you bring me a couple of bags of Cherry Ripe, please? I LOVE the stuff but you can't get it here. There's like ONE shop in London that sells it, but it's not actually made in Australia so it doesn't taste the same And it's REALLY expensive.
So yeah, I'd love you forever if you brought me some Cherry Ripe [grin]
I AM SO SEEING YOU BEFORE I BUGGER OFF TO DUBAI ON THE 18TH!
Will stop shouting at you in excitement now but OMG!
And and and and hello!

And it's REALLY expensive.
