The Commissionaire (doorman) at Raffles Hotel in Singpore is so regal in his uniform and was a fantastic representation of the Colonial history of Raffles.

Oh, that's a great reaction, Kimberleigh - thanks!! I was really taken with this guy's uniform - it was so "Colonial" - felt like I'd stepped back in time 100 years!

Therese Alcorn replied:
