A big thank you

This enigmatically named photo supply shop in Funan Plaza, Singapore was able to help me when no-one else was prepared to do so.

I had already fired 800 shots and used up 3 batteries. I don't usually get so trigger happy and so I do not carry the charger with me.

When I went to Harvey Norman to ask if it were possible to charge a battery, the salesman could not help me. In Song Brothers, The salesman tried to sell me a charger. I already have a charger as well as one for my phone, i-pod, computer etc. I don't need any more. I just want a boost. 

The Canon shop tried to sell me a new battery. "Is it charged?" I asked, "No, but you could buy a charger."

It seemed that my request was beyond the ken of mortal retailers. Then I met Samual Gan. His shop is named for the biblical quotation John 3:16. With a smile, he took my batteries and suggested I came back in a couple of hours. Mr Gan did not expect me to make a purchase and refused a contribution for his time and energy.

So a big thank you toMr Gan and his staff.
