Letters from the Equator

After 7 long years of trying to avoid subscription based anything on the web, I finally succumb to maintaining my own domain and webspace. Sheepishly, this site has been sponsored this year by my buddies, so it’s hats off to you guys.

I will keep my best to maintain this site at an acceptable level of quality, being a self-professed “internet enthusiast”. And unless Blogspot decides to take down my old site, the Letters From the Equator will continue to remain as it is (left alone), with a redirect link to this site… where the fresh stuff is.

Updates:

I feel I owe some explaination to some of you 19 people who regularly read my blog. And even though 19 is a small number, I still feel somewhat indebted to you… as though you fuel the very source of my WWW existence.

I was in Bali a few weeks back. We were in search of the elusive Ocean Sunfish, which I finally caught two glimpses of. It wasn’t what I had expected (I would have prefered ramming into the darn thing, to be honest)… but the sighting made the trip worthwhile. One from our diving group didn’t even get to see the ugly thing, and he’s a veteran diver.

So, that was 3 weeks ago.

And 4 weeks ago, I celebrated my birthday. I think I’m still younger than 30. I forget now.

All I remember was I was up in Genting Highlands (distastefully pronounced Jen-Ting by Singaporeans), celebrating my birthday with my colleagues over Amaretto, beer, cheesy 80s hits, and a game of Cranium, which was my present… incidentally.

In a few weeks time, I’ll be flying back to UK again… this time with a bigger party. So, I’m looking forward to that… when I can. I’m just swamped with work right now I feel guilty posting this.

Hopefully… by tomorrow, I will feel better. There is a 5 year old, maroon, smooth italian car waiting for me. More details on that later.
