Our 15 year old daughter and I managed to escape for a few hours yesterday, so we went down to Orchard Rd. and ate at the Hard Rock Cafe. (She’s a huge fan of old-school rock, especially The Beatles and Led Zeppelin.) Nice place. My daughter touched Jimmy Page’s guitar that was hanging on a wall above a booth. I had two pints of draft beer. Each was $18.50. But I didn’t care; it was nice to do something on our own, and my daughter really loved the place.

Was that S$18.50 or US$18.50? (S$18.50 would equal about 15 bucks American.)
