I've stayed at the World Towers a few times myself. Some views from it are just amazing. I do go for the mighty Raiders, but we haven't seen bright days for a while. I wonder how many IM'ers are in Sydney. I notice more from Melbourne.

You've got to watch the ad then - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yGJVnOwxz0

Someone mentioned a corkscrew - surely you're not intending to drink Indian wine?! You won't need the corkscrew more than once!

Ha ha that's a funny ad. I was studying her facial expressions very closely -- on impact -- to try and determine the only thing yet to be determined ..... unbeknownst that she would reveal the source of her talent in the end .... yup gotta love the utilitarian uses of those 'innsy' navels.

Gotta fly with the right airline, SIA. They took mine and insisted on sending it through to me in India! I was so embarrassed about it that I didn't want to see it again but no..
