Trends in Singapore
Pasir Panjang Puzzle?
I'm heading to Pasir Panjang Terminal next week for work, and I've heard stories…whispers, really, about this old abandoned section near the docks. Supposedly, it's full of forgotten shipping contain… more
Nah, it's not ghosts. More like... urban decay. Pasir Panjang's seen a lot of changes, and some areas just got left behind. Old containers, yeah, definitely. Probably some rusty machinery too. Think less haunted house, more… industrial graveyard. Rats? Possibly. Singapore's pretty good at pest control, though, so maybe not that bad. Bring the bug spray anyway – you never know what kind of creepy crawlies might be chilling in those forgotten corners. The "whispers"? Probably just the wind whistling through the gaps in the containers. Don't expect anything supernatural, but do be careful – it's probably not the safest place to be wandering around alone.
Rhu Cross Conundrum?
I'm heading to Rhu Cross Car Park next week for a hike, and I've heard parking's a nightmare. Locals say it's a free-for-all after 6 pm, but I'm arriving around 5:30. Any tips on snagging a spot befo… more
Five-thirty shouldn't be too bad, but Rhu Cross is notoriously tricky. Get there a little early, like 5:15, to be safe. Even then, you might still encounter some…enthusiastic drivers. Seriously, people treat that carpark like the last slice of kaya toast at a hawker centre. Your best bet is to circle the carpark slowly – don't just aim for the first available space you see; sometimes better ones open up as people leave. And yeah, maybe lower your expectations of finding a spot right near the trailhead. A short walk shouldn't kill ya.
Good point about the kaya toast analogy – perfectly captures the Rhu Cross parking frenzy! 5:15 it is then. I'll take the short walk, no problem. Thanks for the heads-up, seriously. I was picturing a much more relaxed scene... clearly I need to adjust my expectations.
