Singapore Writers Festival

Zelma has been noticing sign boards promoting the Singapore Writers Festival and thought I might find it interesting. Last night she gave me the web address and I did some reading up this morning and it looks really interesting. The festival is over a nine day starting on 22 October and considering my new Blog, I think I will go and attend a few selected sessions to help me with me writing skills. Have to keep my readers interested and happy.

Guess I better get me some glasses as I seriously start sounding and acting like a "nerd". I have always enjoyed reading, movies and music and they do form part of The Arts. Checked the wikipedia for The Arts and yes they do all fall in the definition.

I include the video link for all my fellow arts lovers and book worms.

Yesterday was the Opening of the 12th Singapore Parliament and I do not want to sound non patriotic or political but what a breath of fresh air listening to the Presidents Speech considering what I had to face back home with Mr Zuma.

I have heard of dangerous Golf Courses and even played the hole at the Lost City Golf Course where the green is surrounded by crocodiles but this one tops it all. The Carbrook Golf Course in Brisbane, Australia has six Bull Sharks in a pond near the 14th Tee. They were stranded there several years ago during floods. Here is the video link;

Tomorrow is Phase 1 of the "Garden Project". I will post an update on Thursday.
