Oh man are we ever loving Siglap!!!

OK OK we have not moved yet but we're starting to do more and more there - you know get the feel of the place. Get to know the place and all that. You know the kind of thing.

Today was much of the same. Local food court has a music session on. So down we go with, hopefully, our new neighbours - The Rutherford's to explore and enjoy that experience. And man oh man it was banging. Like being in London burbs with all cool bars and bistros but we're in Siglap, we're at a hawker and bugger me we're listening to The Specials - SKA hits Siglap.

It was AWESOME!!!

Some pictorials for you all. Fun all the way.

Here is the venue - a literal 2 minute stop from where we hope to move to in April. Literally a walk round the corner. To LTN or EC 936. What a place it is!!!


The Popiah is reputed to be the best in Singapore.
I have to say I might even agree with this as it was a belter.
We had one with and one without chilli - bring on the chilli for me please.
HUGE queue - always a good sign.


Jude clearly very happy with what we were doing today.


My Mary the same - very happy smily face.


Actually I think Jude REALLY REALLY liked what we were doing today. Very cute baby Jude.


Amy's chicken rice was best I have eaten in 7 years living in Singapore.
What next, can it get better?


This local beverage in green bottles seems to flow fast and furious with ladies coming up and pouring said liquid for you just before your glass empties. And in each of these green bottles you get 1.5 pints. And 1.5 pints, even with the 25% increase on tax, equates to $7. Yep $7, not $15 at Boat Quay.

OMG I am loving this place more and more.


Then the band rock up.
Uber cool guys, announcing themselves as Afrobean in style - what the hell's that? 
We shall find out soon.


Sophia took most of these photos actually.
Thanks Sophia - my partner in crime.


Pia clearly is also having fun fun fun!!!


Baby Jude took a moment - hmmmmm says he...


Fraie, Frayer, Freer, Froyer, Freeier, Fraaaya - OMG OK OK Freya...
Ha Ha Ha.
Not quite what sure is happening here, but I won't be eating what she's eating.


Or what Steve is eating or drinking either...
Something in the water or something that runs in the family clearly!!!


The band commences.
The band commences with SKA.
The band sounded like the icons - The Specials, Madness, Special AKA etc. AMAZING.


The sun started to set.
The green bottles tipped.
We listened and tapped feet to SKA rhythms echoing down Siglap.
We laughed a lot.
We had such fun.
We ate like King's and Queens.
We were with our friends.

It truly doesn't get much better.
I really think we are going to LOVE living here!!!
