Hi everyone!!! Just popped into an internet cafe for a quick catch-up and to send you a postcard.
Everything is fantastic here - mainly because i'm warm at last!!!! Humidity is awful when you have to work in it but there's nothing like a warm tropical holiday - it's the perfect weather for lying by the pool!!! Unfortunately, as i have hubby, 3 kids & Parents with me, there hasn't been as much lying by the pool as i'd like, but we have been busy shopping, eating, sightseeing etc (including an epic 8 hour trip to Singapore Zoo yesterday). I was very taken by the huge troupe of Himalayan Baboons they have there - the idea of the alpha male with his harem of females reminded me of something, but i couldn't quite put my finger on it..............
Anyhow, my other favourite bit that i had to tell you about was actually on the plane trip up here. We left at night, and about 3 hours into the flight when we were over the northern indian ocean/indonesia & the cabin lights had been dimmed, i looked out the window to see a huge crescent moon lying on it's back like a big smile - it was so bright & close it felt like you could touch it, & when i looked down there was just a blanket of cloud. Because the moon was so bright the clouds looked literally like the ocean, all lit up by the moonlight as far as the eye could see - it was absolutely amazing!!!! & of course, because it was night & i couldn't sleep, i thought there was no better place right there than to listen to Nick Silver - looking out over the sea of cloud and the huge moon, with the sexiest voice on the planet in my head
I am in a bit of Roof withdrawal tho, so thought i would have a little bit of fun while i was here!!!! Looking forward to catching up with you all in a week or so!!!!
CHARLES II PIC DELETED
But why can't i go Babs? I'm so bored here, and no one has paid any attention to my exceptional belly for a week now. Please let me go to Singapore............i promise i'll be good & i'll bring you back some Jimmy Choos!!!!
What about you Idolde, will you let me go on holiday with Numbat?
Listen Marke, i don't care where you go as long as i get a break from your big sword and prickly face all over me. And speaking of swords, it's sticking in my back again!
Sorry luv, that's not my sword - i just thought that seeing as i was going away you might want to, you know .....................
Numbat.........you want me to WHAT in your hand??? Oh, sorry, you want me to blow ON your hand - i thought you said...... never mind........
So explain to me again why i have to stay in this hut on the beach in my underwear? I know you have all the family with you but i won't be any trouble, they might even like me. Oh that's the problem - you want me to spend time with you, not drinking Tiger beer & hanging out with your hubby & dad .............. sounds like fun actually........... i could do with some man time now i've escaped from all those other fangirlies!!!!
