Come Back Kiddo!

Hi Guys all over the world!
It's been such a long lay-off from podcasting. Not just from producing podcasts, but also from listening to podcasts. Partly due to a sudden influx of work and responsibilities in the stuff I've been committed to. But looking at the visitor stats, there've been people who've been listening to the shows. Thanks ya'll!!!

This is to let you guys know that I'm still around, though I haven't produced a show for a really long time. Looking back, I do enjoy the times when I could intereact with various show pod-producers.

Well, I do certainly hope I can work on more shows... I'll have to tidy up my libsyn and feedburner settings though... it's been a mess.

Catch you guys soon! :)

Episode 9: Miniature Golf at Liliputt & Bicycling at East Coast Park



Kenneth & Helen check out Miniature Golf at Liliputt before a bike ride along a short stretch of the 12km East Coast Park. To get to East Coast Park, grab a cab from Bedok or Eunos MRT, or take a taxi from the Changi International Airport if you've got a couple of hours to spare during transit. Liliputt is found next to Big Splash. The decor isn't much, and it looks a bit tacky... but we sure did have some fun!

Happy New Year 2006!

Hi guys,

we haven't forgotten you after having a great one month away from podcasting. You see, we've been partying TOOOOO hard. Hahaha...

But we'll be back with a show pretty soon! Keep those mails flying in. We've had tons from revellers who came to Singapore over the December holidays and they dropped us Christmas pressies in our mailbox. Awww... that was sooo sweet you guys!

Also, it's the start of a new month. Go click on the Podcast Alley link and vote for us will ya? Pushing us up on the "travel category" charts will give more exposure to the show so that more people will be listening in and talking to us more. Bridging borders do give us a real kick!

Encourage us by voting for us yea?

Luv ya all!
Helen & Ken

Episode 8: More Shopping




Kenneth talks about where are the tourist shopping belts and where you'd find better prices for the locals. There are specific shopping areas to get better buys for your IT stuff, or your sports gear, camping gear and a whole lot more. And since this island state is a really small place for 4 million people to live in... can Orchard Road take the crowds? Find out more...

Episode 6: The Unscripted Show




Kenneth lost an entire week's worth of recordings. So he's going naked before the mic - no... not THAT kind of "naked"... but no show-notes, no scripts, no interviews, no co-hosts - zilch! How the hell will he make it through his first solo-radioshow in this episode?

Episode 5: Solemn Sunday




Helen and Kenneth go visit 2 of Singapore’s more touristy cemeteries that never fail to bring out the awe of the place. It’s not creepy – like a usual cemetery would… instead, it invokes feelings of interest in other cultures, remembering Singapore’s tumultuous past, and standing among heros.

Kranji War Memorial Cemetery
Commonwealth War Graves Commission in Maidenhead Berkshire England
Email outer.area@cwgc.org for more information.

Take Bus 170 from Rochor Road or take a train to Kranji Station and try and catch a cab from that deserted station.

Japanese Cemetery Park is nestled in the Hougang and Kovan estates – more specifically at the junction of Chuan Hoe Avenue and Parry Road.
