Missing you

Apr 10, 2006 09:09

Want to be Miss Singapore? To hedge your bets you might consider geting a job with, or studying under, my next oldest brother. He's in Leeds. It might be an idea because previous Miss Singapores include one of my Dad's former students, followed by one of my Mum's old associates. And Carol, the new Miss Singapore as of yesturday (I am told), is my ( Read more... )

to avoid this retail therapy, you could always hang out with grace and i.

that's quite a concept: avoid buying items (like bikes) by considering if we should liberate them instead.

i did some research and best the neighbourhood can gather is the bike belonged to a civet cat who has now chosen to settle down in our hood. and the cat said sure, let them have it. but now it's gone. we blame squirrels.

Be Miss Singapore AND have to go to Leeds? You're really selling the idea.

in the current context you might have to go to Leeds first and work as a window repairman. or pehaps he's got that gig at the DHSS. or immigration. or you could join his skate crew?
do keep me posted if you see him.

after him there's one more younger brother. he's in london.

Ok, but will doing the window repair/skate crew thing get me a work visa? Or can he fiddle something at immigration? Or will either brother pretend to marry me so I get permission to stay in the country? (on the heels of this news)

PS. Do your brothers look like Michael Caine too??

gracious, you know i can't adequately reply to such convolutions.

in one way it might read as if you really want the crown of miss singapore (ever miss singapore?) ... in which case i could ask carol -now that she knows- if she reckons such a circuititous route would be worth it.

as for the drastica of pretending to be married: no dice as they would both steer clear of anything that might get immigrazi suspicious. i would also not recommend provoking the wife of one of them. not after one of the choice phrases i heard she uses even when long standing female aquaintences of the little lamb are in the hood.

o. and still not sure abt any michael caine resemblers. still, i brought my glasses w/ me today. which might enhance the effect.

hope all's well
