It's taken me ages to actually sit at the computer and update this blog, so sorry for the loose ending. Mainly it's because my feet haven't touched the ground since landing back in the UK, via Singapore, on June 15th and also because both times I tried I felt really sad that it was all over and didn't want to write about it.

Anyway, the journey back was fine. We went out for a superb meal in Clarke Quay, Singapore on our last night before our flight home, it was at a place called Fish Tales and we dined on a seafood platter that had Lobster, oysters, mussels, crayfish, balmaine bugs, king prawns, scallops and chips. It was delicious and the perfect ending to a brilliant trip. We literally had about 10 hours in Singapore bu t luckily for us Singaopre airlines lets you check in 48 hours before your flight so when we landed in Terminal 1 from Bangkok, we scooted over to Terminal 2 (where we had to catch the MRT from anyway) and checked all our bags in and grabbed our boarding passes, meaning all we had to take into town was a small bag and it gave us an extra hour in bed in the morning -brill!

The flight home was horrid, it really did drag. I couldn't sleep at all but Singapore airlines had top entertainment so watched a few films, listened to the new Kaiser Chiefs album and watched some TV and they constantly fed us with nice food, which helped a lot.

Heathrow was freezing cold, cloudy and miserable. I'd forgotten how bleak the UK looks compared to other countries. But my Sis was at the airport to pick me up which was fab.

The trip was amazing, I am SO glad I did it, I'd do it again in a second if I won the lottery. It was, by far, the best thing I have ever done and I've achieved more and seen more in 12 months than I have ever done in my whole life I think. If you're sitting at work reading this, bored with your job and the bloody rain in the UK and you've been thinking about going, then i'd say do it - you really won't regret it one bit (although your bank manager may not thank me!, still the memories really are priceless).
