If 'The Rake' is from Singapore I don't see how we should not have something to live up to it.

There's a time for Flip flops and there's a time for a balmoral boot with beveled waists.

PM me and lets make it happen and not let APEC steal the limelight from the REAL issues.


Are Small-Timersâ„¢ welcome to the club?

Hi all, Response has been very good for the shoe club idea. There ARE quite a number of Sg gents coming out of the woodwork! we'll convene the first meeting in the next weeks. Those who have PMed, You're in the loop! For those who are interested and have not come forward, PM me for more details

Once we have established something, maybe we we can invite The Rake to write a piece on us!

Pm me for anything extra you had to cover for those!
