London
I swear one day I’ll post geeky tech stuff on this blog again… But until then… 5 days of London with British Airways (due to ridiculous last minute prices, economy premium only). A380 from SIN to LHR.
First time in like years I did a long haul flight without transit (well technically last time was Montreal but that wasn’t as far). Direct lah!
And I haven’t been in London in like 2 years. I should have one full spare day to walk around and visit. Let’s see how it changed. :)
London public transport sign rebooting
Seems to have a modem in it. After about 5 minutes it managed to get an IP, which was partly masked (number changed to “xxx”).
Picture taking on 23 July 2012 at 02h55 (local time).

If you want to know why the Brits are so good at cycling, then just look at public transport prices.

Eurostar cheatness
Did a comparison with a browser set to UK and one to Belgium on eurostar.com.
If you live in Belgium, you get free NMBS tickets (from and to Brussels South).
However, when you choose UK, you get an option to either choose Brussels South or "Any Belgian Station":
If we compare the prices for 2nd of June (Friday) we see a £6 difference between Brussels and "Any Belgian City".
