Singapore & Malaysia

Took a well-deserved break from working at Medway Hospital to go to Singapore and Malaysia.  Was in Singapore from 18th October for the wedding of my two good friends, Jon and Yinfern.  They had told me of the date one year in advance, and there was no way I was going to miss their wedding.  Later, went to Malaysia for my grandmother's 80th birthday.  That was really great, as I had not seen my relatives for many years.  Emma was with me on this holiday, although she couldn't make it for the wedding..

The wedding ceremony was held on the roof deck of One Fullerton. It was a lovely venue with fantastic views the bay and the Singapore skyline.  Of course, it was a tad warm for me!
