I used to love tha band but they got pretty shit, only heard the single that was released but wasn't a fan.

Can only really listen to the first two albums, if any a all these days. Never came close to topping Revolutions Per Minute



I heard solid advice that you can just tell Jehovas you've been excommunicated and you won't be bothered again


Moccona is drinkable, as far as instant coffee goes.

The single is ok, probably one of the weaker songs though. The album is a lot like Siren Song of Counter Culture IMO. Which is my favourite rise against album

Are you high? Eat like a king for about $25 a day. Accommodation cheaper than Australia, a ticket from one end of the MRT to the other is about.$5. Hell I'm heading to the zoo and it's half the price of.Taronga
Incredibly expensive? Compared to Phuket it's somewhat expensive, compared to Sydney or Melbourne it's very cheap.

That isn't the Singapore I was in a month or so ago

I don't like to agree with BF but his experience of singapore mirrors mine

Yeah but which Singapore did you spend your time in? Orchard road and Clarke Quay tourist Singapore or Zion Street and Hong Lim hawker centres local Singapore? If you only do tourist stuff it'll cost you. But it's still a much cheaper destination than any Australian city

Love Singapore.

Cheaper than any destination in Australia
Food is amazing
Compared to other Asian destinations, the place is absolutely spotless.

Sure it may be cheaper to go to Bangkok or KL but at least Singapore doesn't smell like an open dung heap.

I think BM should relocate to San Francisco. A 4 star public library, a wonderful tram system and Malaysia airlines flies direct. And of course the Gay and lesbian capital of the world.

It's basically heaven for him.

Eat like a king for $25 a day is slightly incorrect imo.

Roti Pratha and Mutton Curry for Breakfast - $12
Kwei Tiau for Lunch - $8
Seafood for Dinner - $20+

That's hawker food and local shop rates. And once you start factoring in Beer and eating out of the hawker stalls it gets worse. Much, Much worse. The missus always wants to stay at Bugis (Bloody shopping) and likes to eat at Haji lane which makes life even more difficult because they have Coopers Pale Ale and even at $18 a bottle I can't not drink it. :lol:

I'm not saying Singapore isn't cheaper than Australia, it certainly is. However, 'Slightly cheaper than Australia' is hardly a selling point, especially for myself since I live in Jakarta.

It is ridiculously efficient and they've done a decent job of building attractions. I was blown away by the Asian Civilizations museum last time I was there.

You can eat like a king for $25 a day in Australia.

And Melbourne is much less expensive than Sydney. You can live on $300 a week easy if you're childless, in a share house and close to public transport (which is far more of the city than in Sydney).

$160 rent
$70 food
$70 Transport/Electricity/internet/other bills

Sydney is much pricier, especially around rent and transport.

$70 a week on food? What are you eating? Rice every meal?
