Very Mou Tun

Ha!Ha! These are pics uploaded a week ago when the Blogger was working.

The pic on the right is the buffet at hotel. Okay but not over sumptious. The later you go the more food there is! Some of the food is brought in. Suspect they are from some of the roadside stalls!

Lucky man. This morning Blogger decided to work again. Ethan is celebrating his 5th Birthday on 11 Sep. So the indianboyfriend fished uo this pic when he is one year old.  Ha!Ha! How has he grown!

Today is Tuesday and Mybakuteh is bitten a bug. The chok last night was pretty delicious. So no exercise for the past two days.

Very Mou Tun one. Mybakuteh has been booked ot return on 4 Feb and we learned that Kaledoscop has also booked a flight so spend Chinese New year in Singapore. Chinese new year is 3 Feb. Need to work this one out carefully as the indianboyfriend intended to return end Feb thinking Chinese New year this year will again be in Perth. Not to worry, we will come up with something creative.

Local news. Garmen is announcing steps to prevent the property bubble from bursting. The weather has been pretty good lately.

Have a great day and of course not without a video from Vietnam.

Bak Bao or Pandan Cake

Ha!Ha! Last Saturday was baking morning at Henderson Crescent. Both mybakuteh and Lee joined forces to make bak bao and Pandan Cake. Result? The bak Bao was okay but could have been mor fluffy. And breakfast this morning was the pandan cake. Well Lee is off to the Silk Route tour in China and will be away for 14 days in northern China. Hope there will be not sandstorm!!! To see pics of the cakes, go to site below as Blogger has become temperamental again.

Ha!Ha! Last night was the 2 hour speech by PM. Now NSmen will get $9000 for their stint, paid over in stages over the years. The Integrated Program in school - to skip O level and take A or IB will be extended to 11 more schools. Also The Military Command college will now be named Goh Keng Swee College and the Education specialist Centre will be the Goh Keng Swee Centre. Garmen is looking into recognising the rest of the Founding Fathers. For HDB, those in income 8,000 to 10,000 can now buy special built to design flat ( about $500,000) or Executive Condo ( $700,000). Other than these it was about fostering the Singapore Spirit and being more understanding about the need for immigrant import.
Well after a heavy talk, time to relax with another video from Vietnam!

Samurai in Vietnam

Ha!ha! Don't know how the Sarge Wen Samurai got mixed up with the Vietnam pics but it looked very real! These pics are not uploaded today. They were done on a day when blogger was working and saved up for today. Like all of the indianboyfriend's breakfast wrapped in foil in the frig! Ha! Ha!

Father's day is coming man! And we are talking about Australia Father's Day - 3 Sep if anyone is uncertain. Beh pie say one!!! So is Sarge Wen's birthday next month!

Pics on top show more scenic shots of Halong Bay.

Last night the YOG had its closing ceremony - which is quite boring - we switched to the Chinese serial half way. The next game is in Nanjing in 2014!!!! They are having a YOG for Winter Olympics in Austria next year. Wonder if they will have a Kid Olympics soon.

Heard mybakuteh had an order last night for five stones! Wonder if anyone play this anymore.

Today  is Friday and weekend is here. Mybakuteh is off to make pow at Halt Chor's house on Sat morning... Maybe she is influenced by Da Bao in Chinese Serial.  Enjoy! I mean the video below:

Si Mit Han Chu ( Shen me fan Shu)?

Ha!Ha! Si Mit Han Chu is not about the picture on top. It is what I had for breakfast. A first - sweet potato... but with two pieces from Mybakuteh, it was a little too much.. may have to skip lunch again after the giant bak kwa hambyrger yesterday. The pic above show Gurmit Singh, Rosie and Henry Thia at Times square last weekend to promote Phua Chu Kang the movie!!! Aiyah not need to watch.. it will be hopelessly the same. Talking about Media Corp Patricia Mok won a case for molestation recently. But the question is which man would want to molest her!! (Pretty cruel thing to say leh).

It has arrived. The Postcard from Rome.. the Fountain...Well it is not postcard only but heng ah heng, got Tour De France Tee Shirt also. Halt Chor got the Tour De France water bottle which is still with the indianboyfriend.

Well Blogger pics are working again. Today is Thursday and the Olympics has ended. The great closing ceremony will be tomorrow at 7.30 pm... guess it will be the same "National Day" style presentation. Oh yes, Singapore got a bronze for football when they bet Montenegro 4-1. Now where is Montenegro. Google says it is a small country where Yugoslovakia used to be and has a population of half a million. Wonder why the usual big boys are not competing in the tournament. Well what else now but more video clips from Vietnam. Ha! Ha! This one is the story of what Lta Ennoying and Kin did on the last night in Hanoi....What they saw around the hotel and what they bought if anything at all.

Have a great Day. Oh yes, very sorry yesterday - posted my blog but forgot to publish until mybakuteh reminded me...Ha!Ha! The blog is MISSED!!!!

Climbing in Style

Ha!Ha! Climbing Mountain in style. Got to stay in the Hilton and there is a mini TV screen in the toilet... so you will not missed any goal. Note the shower in the pic - there is a collapsible seat for you to clean your feet and sole! And of course the toilet seat is automated with jet spray... But cannot stay there always unless have BIG win... ha!ha! Blogger cannot upload do you have to go here to view the hotel.

More news of YOG.. One of the bus was involved in a road accident but no one was hurt. The food caterer for YOG came under fire too as one of the participants posted a pic of the lunch box! In China Henan plane crashed killing 43 people. In Perth the election deadlock may result in Australians going to polls a second time!

Well with all the weekend pics shown, guess it is time for another Hanoi video! Ha!Ha! This is the pict of the young Viet girl using her feet to paddle up 3 km of river!

Happy Birthday, Halt Chor!

Ha!Ha! It's happy birthday to Lee today! Unfortunately the Video clip did not work so it will be picture galor today.

World news.. in Philippines, 7 Hong Kong Tourists were killed in a dramatic bus hijack when a disgruntled policemen went wild with a rifle.  Back Home, Isabelle won the first silver in the YOG for Singapore in table-tennis. She was beaten 0-4 in the finals by China. In Perth the election turned to be a deadlock and now the parties are courting the independents. Oh yes we will take a break from Vietnam and talk about mountain climbing last weekend.

It was so foggy that you can't see anything. Well people who can see anything are probably the mountain climbers. But is was not all mountain climbing. There was time for a nice footing and candle waxing.

But we chicken out on the fish spa... The fishes looked real hungry and we were afraid we may just end up with out bones left.

Today is Tuesday and it has been raining in Singapore.The indianboyfriend suffered some losses this morning as he took MRT to work. The paperbag he took had a hole and out rolled the lunch pear and the spoon for the bak chang! Well, need to get a nice decent small bag the next time we go mountain climbing again.

Have a great Day!

Beh Bang Sia

Ha!Ha! Blogger can upload again. So temperamental man! Local news... the indianboyfriend had constipation... could it be due to eating too much fish maw soup? Ha!Ha! Anyway consulted Dr Myabkuteh who quickly recommended prune juice and prunes. So it was off to Aunty Lucy after work and got the prune juice. As there were no prunes, so buy dates since they looked alike. So went home and drank the juice.. no the best drink to take and ate five dates. Dr Mybakuteh advised against taking both as it will be hard to determine which is the successful treatment. Hallelujah! Next morning on the way to work has to speed up to 100 km as all coming out. Now the job has been done, it is a time for great relief!

Now back to Vietnam. The top pic is currency changing. The boat ladies came and ask for big notes as the rate is better. The indiannboyfriend obliged but soon there was a swam of boats so it ended there. Second pic is the ancient capital temple. Nothing much to see at all. And the last is the hotel bath... Very gadgetry as it has water squirking out all all angles. Looks better than usage.

In Perth shark killed a surfer at Gracetown beach. His board was snapped into half. World news.. Zsa Zsa Gabor, aged 93, is returning home to die peacefully as the priest administer the last rites.

For the YOG , a second medal is coming up for Takwando again this time by a poly student Shafinas. And YOG is not over yet and they are now preparing for Formula 1 in Sep!
