In a word.........Yes. This is open to all and their friends.
I am really jazzed about the terrific mix of familiar and unfamiliar (to me anyway) faces coming to dinner that night, and a friend will only serve to enhance that mix. Give them the details and we will see them there. I will leave the reservation as it is for the moment at No Signboard until the day of the event as I suspect that the 50 seats we have reserved will cover us and that and extra chair/table can be grabbed at the last minute if need be. Over the next few days if it appears that we are going to have larger fixed changes in that number I may ring the restaurant one more time. For the moment it looks fine though.
See you soon,
Mike

The name of the restaurant is Ananda Bhavan and it is very close to the main traffic lights on Selegie road (toward Serangoon Road)

Can I join in?
I read about this SIN run last year, but alas I couldn't join in. Guess what? I have been in Singapore for a few months now and I would love to join you guys in some of the activities. Can you sign my up for the Sat lunch at Little India? This will be my first time meeting fellow FT'ers!

cheeky,
You are now listed for the lunch in Little India. You can check the website anytime at:
http://home.inter.net/mjm/sinrun05.html
If you will be joining any of the other activities, just post to that effect here or drop me an e-mail or PM and I shall update the page. Welcome aboard and I can assure you this will be an unforgettable experience and likely not the last event you will attend. Once bitten and all that.....
Wilson,
Sorry to hear you will not make it, but I shall look forward to catching up somewhere else on the planet with you sometime soon.
Estelle,
Your itinerary is now listed on the website. HAve a peek and see if I have it right and advise of any changes so we can all look out for each other en route or on the ground. (rather poetic, no? )
See you all soon,
Mike

Looking at mjm's page, I just noticed that there'll be a few FTers in HKG airport on Friday night before heading down to SIN. I'll be in a CX lounge from around 5-7.30pm if my flights are on time, if anyone wants to party, PM or email me...
ausTXhiker and I will be staying at the Conrad and if there are shared taxis from there, would like to hop on!
