Compulsory Stop

 When in Singapore, a visit to Raffles is somewhat compulsory. 

A very elegant old British establishment, the Famous Long Bar is on the first and second floors. We picked a quiet time. Previously, we have had to queue outside and wait for a table.

As you can see from the prices, the obligatory sling is not a cheap way to get drunk. Buy your date the Vintage Sling and she will be more impressed than your bank manager.

And for the uninitiated, this is a cleaner's nightmare. That is a bag of peanuts on the table in front of Sarah's niece. Help yourself to the peanuts and drop the shells on the floor.

No parent or significant other would thank you for bringing that particularly habit home. 

They also won't believe that shelling peanuts qualifies as exercise of any kind.

No surprise that Sarah’s OCD had her twitchy about the mess. If she’d seen a broom, there would have been no stopping her.
