Singapore Funnies

If this blog had readers, they would probably be as bored reading about my Singapore holiday as I am writing about it, but as it is fresh in my mind, I have one last post on it.

As should be plainly obvious, I'm not one to take loads of photos, but am very good at taking photos of signs or ads I see overseas that I am not likely to see in Australia.

Firstly, one from my hotel. Stayed at the V in Lavender. It was on top of a MTR station which was good but the room smelt of cigarette smoke. Rated as 4-star, but felt closer to a 3-star. There were 3 things banned in the lifts.

 Now Smoking I would have guessed, pets I may have guessed but Durian? How smelly must it be for it to be banned in a hotel lift?

Onto a toilet sign. Now I come from a country where squatting is rare, so was not overly suprised to see a sign warning not to squat. What did suprise me was the element of humour used to illustrate the point

Dont Squat for your own splashing safety!

Now at a food court there was an ad for what I can only assume is a vegetarian feast. I didn't eat this one, but was tempted to, only because I liked the name

 Now I don't know if this one is deliberate or not, but this one has a very different meaning in OZ, particularly for men:

Jeweler in Little India - pity they were closed!

Last one, Singapore is a very clean place. In the airport toilets there were touchscreens requesting you to evaluate how clean you felt the toilets were. Don't worry people, sign is sanitised every hour.

For the record, I gave an Excellent :) .
