Quick example:

final class Singleton
{
    private static $instance = null;

    private function __construct(){}

    private function __clone(){}

    private function __wakeup(){}

    public static function get_instance()
    {
        if ( static::$instance === null ) {
            static::$instance = new static();
        }
        return static::$instance;
    }
}
