The "new" Emirates lounge in SIN.

Same spot as the "old" one. But with all new furnishings.

Nice!
 
Prices were ... Variable ...

Pinot noir great style

As someone who has been known to suffer from the odd bout of gout, I can say that I've noticed that the preservatives in wine can cause an on set. As part of gout management, I specifically look for wine (unfortunately white, as red is a real gout no-no) with no preservatives and they are few and far between. Great to see it being advertised so prominently!

Now, OT ... why is there a push bike lying on the floor behind? Seems odd from a wine tasting establishment (if that's what it is) ... many people have trouble staying on their feet anyway, without the added excitement of negotiating push bikes on floors! :p
 
When London has a beautiful evening like last night it is glorious on the South Bank - then went to see the live recording of the Last Leg - great night

This was at Dark mof_'s 'Winter Feast', so essentially stalls which could have all sorts of stuff behind them. How about a car?

Looking out from the Royal Albatross Centre on the Otago Peninsula. If you look carefully you can see what is an 11kg albatross chick nesting on the headland.

RooFlyer - did you go for the gin and yuzu? 2 of my most favourite things!

I was giving serious consideration to escaping to Tassie to the festival but had in my head it was in July... and to make matters worse, a good mate pops up on Instagram today posting photos from there :(

Didn't try that particular one ... there were so many to choose from. Also frankly they were quite expensive - mostly $8 and a number at $12 per drink. Also other drinks to try over the evening ... such as the Pinot Noir from Sailor Seeks Horse winery and the choc milk stout from T Bone brewery.

Timing is easy to remember ... the week concluding with the winter solstice, when the almost-nude-swim takes place.
 
View from the DRW QP. These were taken seconds apart proving two things:

1. No two departure profiles are alike.

2. I won't be winning any photography awards.

Notice the third guy is barely off the deck and he's wheels up already.
