This is a picture snapped on Thursday while boarding the free bus that takes tourists around Sentosa 'Island'. Sentosa is a rather curious tourist trap, literally 300 metres away from Singapore, that includes a 'magical musical fountain' and large ugly statue of a MerLion (some sort of mythical concrete animal mostly sighted in its natural habitat of Singaporean corporate logos), resplendent with mobile phone receiver sticking from the top of its head.
Not sure if this sign is any relation to the nightclub concept of a 'door whore' but it made the bus trip, while crammed in with approximately 3.2 million pushy Indian tourists, that little bit more pleasant :-)

Hey Mad Hatter!
My first time to your blog. This one rocks. I didn't know we have this "interesting" concept somewhat across my over 30 years in Singapore! Eye-opening and surprising for me the local pax. Surely cannot understand its origin.
Cheers,

Nice to have you drop by May - have been very slack on updating it lately - but am getting back into it now - hope your year is progressing well and uni isn't killing you!
