British street names



It tickles me no end reading street signs like these in Singapore. What, are we in good ole England? Nope, they point to streets in tropical Singapore. Just signs of us being a British colony, along with those black and white houses that are another British legacy.

  3. It is hard to tell where in the world we are anymore... but it is nice to see how global we really are.

  4. Really interesting know, but with Singapore's colonial history I think the street names are there to stay.
