Sorry don't mind the 'dear' bit, wasn't being patronizing.
Shake hands...and I trust you are doing well.

Where did you find this advertised Hip? We did the Brunei hop a few years ago and stayed at a flash resort near the airport. Caught a cab into town and did a water tax I tour for a few dollars. The bloody place shuts down at 7pm, couldn't even find a cab. A lovely policelady gave us a lift back to the resort. Strange.

Are you working for them? I won the whole airline in a game of darts down the pub last night. Seat pitch, leg length, champagne yes or no, lounge access, fast track and baggage allowance information please.

I am suss about cheap charlie airlines. If I flew with them I would be shitting bricks, would rather pay more and fly happy and contented with Thai or Singapore Airlines. Do you get a refund with them if your aeroplane plunges into the Pacific Ocean?

^ Only those passengers in First Class and Business Class are refunded in the event of a "wet landing".

I don't drink on the plane so that doesn't worry me, and I don't remember any pre-flight prayers. I do remember seeing on the tv monitor an arrow that showed you where Mecca was, in case you wanted to rip out a quick prayer. Was surprised to find there was a "secret" bar in the hotel, after hearing so much about it not being available there. Did not notice that many Muslim passengers either, most seemed to be Western style. I do remember the second time I stayed in the hotel, on the way back to Brisbane, there was an extremely lively couple in the room beside mine. The poor girl's head was banging up against the wall or the bedhead right behind my bed, for hours. I thought this is great, going to be reminded all night that I am not getting any.

No doubt the image was going through your mind as well as the ditty too.
