Good breakfast then onto shore again by ferry. Looked around Singapore, Change Ally, Raffles Place, and then back to the boat for lunch, really going to eat well and try to replace the 2 stone I’ve lost. Supposed to have been sailing midnight but we didn’t. The boat seems ok but the crew are a miserable lot, I’ve not seen one of them smile yet. Its strange on board really the majority are on holiday from Australia. It’s got an atmosphere of strained politeness. The 2 teachers we met in Bangkok are onboard too, Harry and Louise. The boat engines have been fixed now, it’s taken about a week to sort it.
