Thursday out with Wanxin and Nerine. Retro was the theme. Nerine brought us to Lorgans Retro Stall ( www.lorgans.com) which stocks lovely, but also very expensive retro furniture. A rotating dial telephone adds a touch of novelty to making calls and I just love the sound of the spring compressing but who would have thought it would cost $195. We had fun wandering around the shop or rather warehouse looking at all the unaffordable groovy antique furniture. When I win the lottery, you can all come to my place to make calls using an antique rotating dial telephone.


Next we ended up at Arab St, for some famous Bak Kut Teh, piping hot on a cold, wet day and since Haji Lane was nearby, we decided to spend some time there, which turned out to be alot of time. I saw a lovely Che Guevara Tee which I wanted to buy immediately, but it turned out to be too small. We enjoyed ourselves wandering around the various artsy lifestyle boutiques along the lane, taking photos with the graffiti artwork on the walls and then the girls suddenly had a brainwave to rent horror movies, so after dinner for them, Lan Gaming for me, we converged at Wanxin's place for Amityville and Shutter. It was 4am by the time we finished. I found Shutter the more scary of the 2 and there was a moral behind the story too, in creepy fashion.
