Majulah Singapura!



Happy Singapore National Day (for last thursday). I started the day with a cycle around the island. The rally-stripes on my head are road grime thrown up by the rider in front (I was in the middle of a pack of riders - peleton in the vernacular)! We did 150 km - the furthest I've cycled since last December. The evening was spent hosting a National Day BBQ for like-minded patriots. This photo is to prove that I can make a fire (eventually).

Majulah - means "come on" or "walk here" in Malay. How we love the word "lah".

There's another word i love -
"Semu-lah": do it again
It's kind of like "outra vez" in Portugeuse.

Australians feel ashamedly monolingual, particularly in multilingual SIngapore.
