Clarke Quay is an area of Singapore with a good choice of restaurants and bars.

Another polo tournament, and as usual it is Fede from Argentina who shows the most passion and commitment to the game. If the pony is not fast enough, then Fede just makes it to the ball through willpower and contortions. Having already fallen off and have the horse land on top of him within the first minute of the game…

I love action photography. Catching a moment like this gives me pleasure…

Singapore. Whore-bitch high priestess at the altar of consumerism, or a very fine place to go shopping; depending on your viewpoint. I viewed it as a good place to take she who must be obeyed for an end of year treat.

Sure enough, with a balance available on her credit card and a shopping stamina that I could never match, she plundered Orchard Road and returned fully encumbered with shopping bags containing the usual junk that women feel compelled to buy. As for myself, being of the more rational gender when it comes to these things, I spent less than an hour making jut one carefully considered purchase during our visit. More on this later, but rest assured it could not possibly be yet another camera as I already have too many; or at least that is what she said when I brought it back to the hotel room.

Being that time of year, there were lights everywhere, which was good; and appalling festive music, which wasn’t. Of course I had to take some shots with the new camera I didn’t get.

This is a notice that I will be absent. For about four days. Hence the title.

No posts.

All together now: Who gives a shit? Oh what a shame.

Please amuse yourselves, and wash your hands aftewards.

Thank you.
