Aussie Ockers thinking of travelling overseas and setting a new world record for the number of Singapore Slings downed in the Tiffin Room at the famous Raffles Hotel will be pleased to learn that should they swoon and fall down during the attempt , the Lion City has a Raffles Hospital as well , so you could come to and believe you are still in the fancy drinking establishment and call for another cocktail.
Little Darwin was unaware that Singapore has a Raffles Hospital until the Aeronautical Correspondent , Abra , sent us the above photo of the hospital during her recent overseas trip.
The sober writer of this post passed through Raffles Hotel with his notebook , wife and four children, nearly half a century ago, and did not sample a brace of Singapore Slings , not wanting to set a bad example for the kids . A thirsty Darwin correspondent who has visited Raffles Hotel several times over decades says the cost of a Singapore Sling has rocketed during that time .
The hospital is L-shaped ,13 storeys high-regarded as an unlucky number for some - which opened in 2002, won an award .
