 GJ> Don't be put off by the few stalls facing into the eating area of the
 GJ> Tekka Centre.  Go around to the back area, where you can get good
 GJ> Pakistani, Malay and Indian food, which you eat back where you started
 GJ> from.  I have had an excellent rendang there.

So that's it. As I said, my experience with Tekka Everything
has been limited to a quick bored wander about while Carol
oohed and ahed at the saris and things.

 ML> could spend a lifetime exploring food opportunities in
 ML> Singapore.
 GJ> So very true!  Whenever I pass through there, with a few hours to
 GJ> spare, I like to investigate something new.

Encountered a bakery called Pau Dian? It sells much the same
inventory as the ubiquitous Old Chang Kee shops, but the food
is that much fresher and better. I guess it's the difference
between 3 stores and dozens.

 ML> that they really do serve the big cities. So Manchester, New
 ML> Hampshire now calls its airport Manchester-Boston Airport, as it's
 ML> only 80 km away from the city (more by car, and in fact with about
 ML> 3 buses a day as the only public transportation between the two),
 ML> and Palmdale, California has put in to be called Palmdale Los Angeles
 ML> Airport, despite its also being about 80 km away, or 120 by car.
 GJ> That is ridiculous.  Do they provide a helicopter commuter service?

What's ridiculous is that the American public are foolish
enough to buy into this. Of course, you too have your share
of similar shenanigans, such as the marketing of flights
to and from Geylang or Geelong or whatever it is as Melbourne
flights.

 GJ> Do you often take advantage of those red-eye flights?

Of course. I sleep reasonably well on airplanes, and these
flights save money on accommodation as well as transport.

 GJ> So Mr Corrigan would very likely have heard of the Menzies flight, and
 GJ> may have been inspired by it.  Hopefully he made a better landing.

I know he made it to Ireland, his intended destination,
in good shape. What condition his aircraft was in, though,
I don't know.
