- [Thaipusam Singapore 2026 (Videos)](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/thaipusam-singapore-2026-videos/) - The Hindu festival of Thaipusam honours Lord Muruga, Son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, and brother of Ganesha. Lord Muruga frees people from their bad karma and enriches their lives with positivity. It is regarded as a day when good triumphs over evil. In Singapore in 2026, Thaipusam was the largest it has been.

- [Changi Chapel and Museum](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/changi-chapel-and-museum/) - Changi Chapel and Museum was relocated from outside Changi Prison to its current location back in 2001. Now run by the National Museum of Singapore, and redeveloped a few years ago, it offers the opportunity to see how the Prisoners of War lived in Changi Prison during the Japanese occupation. I know people that are
- [Gillman Barracks](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/gillman-barracks/) - Gillman Barracks used to house the British army until 1971. The camp included married quarters for officers, barracks buildings, sports facilities, messes, regimental institutes, schools and a swimming pool. After the British left, ir was subsequently occupied by various units of the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) such as the School of Combat Engineers and the SAF
- [Jurong Lake Gardens](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/jurong-lake-gardens/) - This is what was known as the Chinese and Japanese Gardens. Its been redisgned and it is certainly now a rival to the Botanic Gardens. There are pavilions to shelter in, plenty of shady places, lots of water fountains and toilets as well. Nice cafes there as well. Enjoyed walking around and it is on
- [Joo Chiat Road](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/joo-chiat-road/) - This road really shows off the Eurasian influence in Singapore, especially the Portugese influence. Lots of work has been done to renovate the shop houses and houses and they look wonderful, its always worth a visit as it does represent the old Singapore. We came across a Peranakan Museum recently opened at 283A Joo Chiat
- [Singapore 1989](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/singapore-1989/) - These were taken on a family trip to Singapore in October 1989, there are pics of Sentosa and Chinatown and Arab Street, they are in no particular order
- [Warwick Road](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/normanton-park-2/) - Still surviving, a quiet little place off of the expressway. Not sure how much longer this will survive, will be sad if it has to go.
- [Old RAF Seletar Camp](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/old-raf-seletar-camp-2/) - Old RAF Seletar Camp - These are a series of pictures I have taken over the last few years, some in the rain, some in the sunshine. Some of the MQ estate has been demolished but a large part still exists. In the main its all in good condition. The Oval was fenced off for
- [Tanglin – Dempsey](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/tanglin-dempsey-2/) - Tanglin - Depsey - I was meeting some friends for lunch there so only had an hour or so to yomp around. There is a lot left of old Tanglin and a lot of the MQs are intact although I didnt get time to look at them all. Quite a busy place with lots of
- [St Andrews Cathedral](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/st-andrews-cathedral-2/) - St Andrews Cathedral - I took these pics not long after the cathedral reopened. It was shut for a couple of years for renovations. They did a great job, looks magnificent.
- [Singapore Botanic Gardens](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/singapore-botanic-gardens-2/) - Singapore Botanic Gardens – A wonderful lush green oasis. Always great to walk around the gardens and see the plants and flowers. The Orchid Garden is magnificent, especially now it has the Sembcorp Cool House, this houses the orchids found in the upland cooler climes.
- [Rochester Park](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/rochester-park-2/) - Rochester Park - Like many of the old MQ estates, this is undergoing a rolling renovation programme. The large renovated buildings are leased out to businesses and F&B outlets. Still some old buildings in need of some TLC but the SLA is investing heavily to improve the buildings.
- [Nepal Park](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/nepal-park-2/) - Nepal Park - what is left of it. Some of the buildings have been incorporated into larger business developments which look good, but there are several old houses that are in a poor condition. Hopefully they will be renovated like the ones down the road in the Wessex Estate
- [Medway Park](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/medway-park-2/) - Medway Park - A real time capsule. I took these pics a couple of years ago, I was coming to the end of the estate when 3 Police cars appeared and 7 policemen got out. They told me that I was in a sensitive area and could not take any more pictures and that I
- [Jalan Hang Jebat](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/jalan-hang-jebat-2/) - Jalan Hang Jebat - Still there and looking good despite a new highway on the doorstep. Another old MQ enclave. The Colbar which was situated on Jalan Hang Jebat was carefully dismantled and moved a few hundred yards to Whitchurch Road on the Wessex Estate
- [Changi Village and what’s left of the camp](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/changi-village-and-whats-left-of-the-camp-2/) - Changi - Took these whilst on a wander through the village, then along the boardwalk and around the remaining MQs and RAF buildings, probably missed a few places but did what I could in the time I had available. Several areas that were part of the camp are now within the SAF restricted areas although
- [A walk along the East Coast](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/a-walk-along-the-east-coast-2/) - A walk along the East Cost - I walked from Raffles City up over the Benjamin Sheares Bridge and then along the East Coast Park until I reached the Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal, the path ends there. Was intending to walk up to Changi Village but the walk alongside a busy dual carriageway was too
- [My Singapore Picture Gallery](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/my-singapore-picture-gallery/) - Pictures of Singapore, present & past, seen through the eyes of an Ex Far East Brit Brat This site will be of interest to those, like me, who spent their childhood following their Father around the world to various postings. Singapore left a lasting impression on those fortunate enough to spend some of their childhood
- [Alexandra Hospital](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/alexandra-hospital/) - Alexandra Hospital - The old BMH is still going strong. Lots of buildings of old still there although there are plans afoot to change a lot of it. Will keep an eye out for what changes.
- [The Wessex Estate](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/the-wessex-estate/) - The Wessex Estate - another time capsule, walk up towards the water tower and you go back 60 years. The estate is mostly intact, two blocks of flats, 13 and 18, were demolished 30 odd years ago to make way for a trunk cable. In March 2024 I saw that the SLA had applied to
- [Tree Top Walk - MacRitchie](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/tree-top-walk-macritchie/) - Tree Top Walk MacRitchie - Just one the many walks I did in 2024, this is pleasant walk, a bit rough in parts, but being in the canopy was awesome. From the bridge to the path and back to the car park it's all one way which is easier than having to push past people.
- [Rail Corridor/Green Corridor](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/rail-corridor-green-corridor/) - This is the path the old KTM Railway used to take from Tanjong Pagar, through a land corridor up to Woodlands and then over the Causeway to Malaya. After the lease ended the line was turned into park of sorts to allow anyone to walk from Tanjong Pagar to where the corridor ends in Kranji,
- [Kranji War Memorial](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/kranji-war-memorial/) - Kranji War Memorial where now all of those that perished in conflicts are interred. The cemetery also includes family members that died whilst parents were statoned in Singapore. When the other cemeteries used were closed down and built over, like Pasir Panjang and Ulu Pandan, the remains were exumed and cremated, the ashes scattered in
- [New 7th Storey Hotel](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/new-7th-storey-hotel/) - Where lots of us stayed as a transit hotel. Survived for quite some time until it had to go to make way for a new MRT station. The charcoal steamboat there in the evenings was legendary.
- [Chip Bee Gardens - Holland Village](https://rogerthomas.me.uk/chip-bee-gardens-holland-village/) - Chip Bee Gardens is largely intact and being modernised and updated by the SLA.
