A view from Ben’s seat. Relaxing after a meeting. A stack of colours. A Sunday afternoon treat. One pair is never enough. Mirror, not.

Photo: JBABZEE A four month wait, and 24 September 2009 pops into existence just like that!

Photo: Epic Kayaks Singapore … Splish, splash! Splish, splash! Splish, splash! That’s battleship canoe fun for you, especially when you have (cutie pie as can be!) 7 year old Andrew amongst your company!
