Our little part in local history

We are used to seeing "Uncle Pat" in the news. But this time it's our turn in the limelight! We appeared in Straits Times Life! and on the front page of LianHe ZaoBao (联合早报), all thanks to the little documentary on the Gemmill Fountain we made last year in April.

We were interviewed by the press a few days before as well as at the media event on Friday that the museum invited us to. The conservators were there to explain the restoration works done to the 146-year-old drinking fountain and we also enjoyed a personal guided tour of the "Quest for Immortality - The World of Ancient Egypt" exhibition.

Just making the documentary was great fun, but to have it end this way makes it all the more unforgettable. The Gemmill Fountain will always have a special place in our hearts!

There's Pat, with Sai Pi partially hidden, and I'm the one with the umbrella.
