Pete drops by Singapore

.
This week I had a chance to catch up briefly with Pete as he was in Singapore on a business visit.

We had drinks at the Ritz Carlton and chatted about business and life, Thai politics and class trips to Thailand, old times and new times ... We didn't have time to go out for crab or other local goodies as he had a tight schedule and was flying out to Oz the next day.



Anyway Pete looks good, and his architectural and design business seems to be doing very well. Watch out for the name Magnusprojects ... we'll definitely be seeing a lot more of their designs and products in luxury hotels, residences and offices around the world soon.

Remember you heard it first on this blog !  LOL.

    hi all: hope everyone is well.
    Jimmy is very kind as usual: work will always be small...
    Managed to see him mid afternoon before leaving town.
    Bangkok is still RED unfortunately. Not that bad as reported in news channel abroad.

  17. The situation in Bangkok sounds tense, Pete. Is it really that bad?

  18. life goes on in bangkok and elsewhere in thailand. we just have to put up with the inconvenience from time to time. walking amongst police n soldier fully armed seems strange. businesses hassled. massive traffic jams. dust will settle soon. real soon. however we still have great food and attitude. it's a safe place. don't pay attention to news channel. thought similarly when i was abroad.

    not really. life goes on. just a bit inconvenient with the mess. more traffic jam and walking amongst fully armed police n army seems weird. all in good spirit though. it's a safe city. we still have great food and everyone still smile.
    anons; i don't do fashion anymore; was a fluke! u have great memory.

  20. Great to hear that life goes on without any scary incidents Pete. Do hope everything is perfect for you over there.

    Guess our mini reunion in Bangkok will have to put on hold at the moment huh?
