Preparing for a busy few months


The next two months are going to be insanely busy, and (with any luck) are going to fly by, so as my last weekend in Singapore for a month, this weekend was set up to be a nice quiet relaxing few days, and thankfully we managed to stick to that plan, and also fit in a couple of gym sessions too!

First in the gym

Joyce is leaving Singapore to move back to London. We thought that this was going t be a permanent move, but thanks to a cheeky little deal that he signed off last week, he’s actually just home for a long Christmas break and then he’ll be back in the New Year. As we were suddenly not actually losing a friend it seemed a little foolish to still move ahead with a farewell lunch for him, but as we love any excuse to go to the Singapore Cricket Club for a couple of cheap drinks and very reasonably priced lunch, we weren’t going to turn down the invitation at the last minute.
            Whilst we passed the time waiting for a selection of very hung-over people to join us we made our way through a glass of wine or two, and then once the group was assembled we headed out to the sunny deck to enjoy the Rugby7s action that was happening just next to us, and a lovely little snack lunch just for good measure too. It was very low key for us, and as we left the boys to make their way over to the rugby pitches, I couldn’t help but feel very smug about the fact that I was not heading out to give myself a strong afternoon hangover.     
     
            
After all, I had some Halloween props to get to work on! Spider cookies and 'pumpkins' carved out of the only largish fruits that they had left in Cold Storage. Not quite the same, but they're good enough!
