Called Cars & Coffee, it is basically an informal event where like-minded car lovers come together to have breakfast and mingle around. Of course, the conversation topics usually revolve around cars and... erm more cars.

All in all, it was more than worth it for me to wake up early on a Saturday morning to check out these cars. Even though i woke up late and missed a few cars whose owners had to go off before I arrived, I walked away feeling glad that the car scene in Singapore is still very much alive.

  • Space: Large and Empty

    Over the weekend I fell into a bit of a science-fiction/science rabbithole. You know, one of those when you click on ONE Youtube video and suddenly the whole Sunday afternoon is gone and your algorithm is all messed up.  Anyway, obviously there's tons of fascinating stuff about space and science and all that. Too much, really.  But one fun fact has stuck in my brain: All the other planets in the Solar System could fit between Earth and our Moon.  It seems crazy to think, consideri

While Singapore gained independence in 1965, Borneo Motors opened its first showroom in Singapore back in 1925, located along Orchard Road. Having been in Singapore for a century, Borneo Motors - which

    Having followed this club for more than 20 years, I'm well aware that a promising transfer window does not directly equate to an improved season. Forwards Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, as well as Diego Leon, the young Paraguayan wing-back, have been Manchester United's signings for the 2025 summer transfer window so far. On paper, this team should have no problem challenging for silverware. On the pitch, the current crop of players finished 15th last season. While both Cunha and Mbeumo ha

    Godzilla Minus One: Surprisingly emotional and poignant

    When one thinks of Godzilla movies, one imagines an oversized amphibious dinosaur generating a terrifying heat ray from its mouth and fighting with other oversized monsters. Meh, nothing special, right? Wrong. Here’s why Godzilla Minus One should be an action movie you should definitely catch. In this version, the timeless clash between monster and man is once again set against the tumultuous backdrop of post-war Japan. But, unlike typical action films that dive headfirst into destruction a
