Renowned battlefield archeologist & author Jon is back in town ! After his many years of sterling service uncovering the details of the battles which took place in and around Adam Park, he is now based back at the University of Glasgow but can't resist returning to Singapore.We're delighted to have him back and wanting to make the most of his 2 week visit, I have arranged for him to give a private presentation on his latest research into battle sites in Singapore. It will be held in one of the Black & White houses in Adam Park which features in his wonderful book, "Tigers in the Park". In fact, it's the house with the calendar drawn by Australian PoWs during their imprisonment there - which was only quite recently discovered.Enjoy the talk in this beautiful home with a glass of wine in hand along with cheese to munch on!This event is limited to 20 people so please sign up quickly.For anyone who doesn't know Jon please read these links:http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/wwii-tale-unravels-at-adam-park-bungalowhttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/expat/expatlife/11268555/Blood-and-mud-living-on-a-former-battlefield-in-Singapore.html
