in the paper today......

since everything is running fine and all i have today is discussions , i'm gonna use some of the free time to update my friends beyond the Malaysian borders.

Cab rates to increase

and we're supposed to park our cars at home and take on the public transport. yeah right.

putting more fuel to the flame,

Drive national cars, says DPM


"This was a longstanding policy and the Cabinet would, therefore, meet to discuss why Terengganu found it necessary to spend RM3.43mil to buy 14 Mercedes E200 Kompressor cars."

3.34 millon for 14 cars?
not too bad a deal.... i wonder who made the sale/purchase.....

“I use national cars and the Prime Minister uses national cars, too,” he told

yeah... you didnt buy em and if you did, you'd be on the heat.
we're here suffering and cursing everyone who agrees with the price hike each and everytime there is a jam , when we're pumping gas , or are told that the price of an item has gone up.

whats been going on ?
well,
aout 2 weeks ago , chris had the craving for fish and chips.
so here i was on the phone with andwar and Udish, checking out the places with a decent tasting and decent priced portion of fish and chips. so far as far i can remember , if its eating out, the places with an ok portion of it would be swensens, Manhattan fish market , chilis and a few other places. problem is , we've tried them all, and they dont d the fish any justince.
so on sunday we went to carrefour. grabbed the potatoes and other stuff, looked for the fish stakes ( which are way better than fillets IMHO) but then, no stakes, dory fillets only. damn.....
dory is better than no fish.
so we made the batter and crushed the biscuits and deep fried the stuff. not too bad. potato wedges and fish. but the fish didnt quite rise to the challenge. we'll its ok to eat fish cause they dont have any feelings . so i guess , its gonna be fish this weekend too.

i will try to wake up early this weekend, i did last week, and did the laundry so that chris could catch more needed Z's . but as soon as the wash was half way thorugh ... it rained, i can't dry my clothes, i can't go to market....... ouch

what else did we do during the weekend?

we went to Sri pandi ( aka pandi pandi to my brother ) to meet up with my brothers.
i skipped the banana leaf thingy and opted for tandoori chicken instead. talking about tandoori ,
i found a place near my house which has some of it. looks quite good. will give it a try in the future.

i rode my bike. did some mode to the throttle bodies. smoother ride i must say, but the slight vibes in the bars is still there.

was also looking for a decent bike cover. not in stock :(
a rather productive weekend i must say.

but other than that , i'm just busy making chris comfortable with her pregnancy. come december , i'll give up my name teddy bear to be daddy bear........

i took chris for some coconut water on sunday before heading for my gym workout. and while she was drinking , i told her i'd treat her to some mac n cheese @ kenny rogers roasters. the smile, that instant smile on her face. it made me fall in love even more.
