Another on of our sad Singapore stories. Its Singapore Garden Festival and I saw these people setting up this showcase garden in the middle of Orchard Road. Of course, who do we have setting up this lovely garden? Foreign Labourers probably from Bangladesh. Singapore's take of gardening is nothing like the gardening we experienced in the UK. The English LOVE their gardens and its not just enoying the end product but its 80% about the process. The loving, pruning, watering, feeding, loving.
Singaporeans dont want to get dirty or hot or anything. We just want to point and let the servants do the work. Its disgusting.
Saturday, we are leaving for Bali and I'll be there for 3 weeks. This 4 months in Singapore is the longest we've probably ever been in Singapore in a long time. So its going to be quite a change when we get there.
I cant bloody wait.
