Singapore Fling

By the hotel pool in Singapore we observed the ‘solemnisation of an engagement’. The local couple were very smart in their white outfits and the scene was decorated with lots of sky blue ribbons and raffia balls hanging from the arbour by silver cords. A breeze gently moved the decorations and soft music played before the engagement vows were given. She turned and looked straight at her fiancé saying “Love you plenty long time Mister” – Ah romance is not dead!
