Bowling pins...

Saw a lot of bottles on the ground after a recent 'party' nearby.

I was a bit naughty and wanted to roll a ball or something towards it.
They look like an overcrowded set of bowling pins.
No, I was do it, the mess would be disastrous!

empty bottles

Have you ever wondered why wines cost so much in Singapore?
Well, there is a excise duty of $70 per litre of alcohol.

So say, you buy a 750ml bottle of wine with an alcohol content of 13.5%, you will pay $7.09.
Don't forget you still need to pay 7% GST on whatever amount the wine costs.

  1. Looks like someone must have enjoyed a nice event together! Sorry to say, but bottles like that will not be found this way here in Stavanger. We have www.vinmonopolet.no
    So you can`t go and buy a bottle where you buy food...
