*Burp*
Did supper with Beng, Jia and the girls. And, as usual, haven’t laughed so hard for a while now. (Ok, at least not since the chalet which ended last Friday.)
Apologies for the sporadic updating of the site. My days have been packed with activities since my departure and return from Taipei. Well, perhaps I can just summarize some here. =)

5 May (Sat) to 13 May (Sun):
Should be quite well-known by now. My 9-day trip to Taipei and Taichung, and described in Formosan Adventure Parts I, II and III. Read them if you haven’t. Also check out my photos, all 800 of them.
18 May (Fri) to 20 May (Sun):
Chalet over at Costa Sands Pasir Ris with the Jabs. I helped with the setup and grocery shopping, plus equipment supply, that explains my absence. The first night was the most memorable, cos for that night only, the girls weren’t around and it was an all-guy affair. We had a late night BBQ and long chats reliving the old days, as well as whisky cokes all round.
Ok, so when the ladies came over, it wasn’t boyland anymore, but well, it is after all another dimension. I stayed for the first night, but went home with ms wan on this second night, around 1am. Old lah, cannot take the toll of going without sleep for two continuous days.
10am of day 3, helped with moving the stuff back. KR came over to rest before Reubs came to get us for the match in the afternoon. A spot of bad luck saw us lose 0-1. Crap. But in all a fruitful weekend.
It took me a while to get over the trip.
23 May (Wed) to 25 May (Fri):
Chalet 2, with the ‘family’. This was cosy from the start, cos it was only the few of us. 2 days, 2 BBQs. Chief cook and fire starter was Jia, and we also did the second day’s marinating. But kudos must go to Tee’s bro, who prepared everything we could imagine we might need at the chalet for the BBQ and for normal service.
Mahjong was the order of the day, as almost everyone who went managed to pick it up by the end. I didn’t stay overnight, rather I made the 10-min walk home everyday.
Fun.
Today I went for my medical. Certified fit and ready for work. Blah.
25 June is approaching.

Cameo watch (from May 15):
NAC Scanias like 3610X (SP/354) and 3611T (SP) have been appearing on 358, which has an FAC perm fleet. 1747Z (32) has cameoed on 9, 18 and 518. CAC Scanias like 3708Z (SP), 3640J (SP) and 3722G (SP) have also appeared on 359 in the past 2 weeks. 3666K (45) also appeared on 12, presumably to replace 3691L (17) as the PM x-over from 17.
Plugging holes left by perms going on service runs? Or just preparing for the entry of the K230UBs?
