I miss the Imperial Jap army. Thought the Japs [god bless them] were doing a pretty good job of pest control when they were wiping out the Chinks. Chinks are like roaches. Look how many there are now.

What about when KFC used to be a sitdown restaurant with metal forks and spoons and porcelain plates?
I remember my friend turning down the forks and spoons and saying that 'God gave us hands to eat". I wonder whether he feels the same way now.

Waiting under a tree for fit buddies to return with checkpoint tags during ippts and relaxing at health centers after that.
I miss the time when after visiting the health centres, you guys would come into the old sammyboy forum on delphi and say things like "she will suck you dry."
Ok, may not be you personally and this was about 10 years ago. :smile:

Nostalgia starts here...

1) A&W...Ponderosa...Randy's

2) the cigarette prices and the ability to smoke in a pub/discos

3) the old geylang pricing...S$ 40

4) 7-Eleven Softee Float

5) bubble gum...maybe

6) Masters of the Sea / Asia Bagus

7) no ERP

8) Malaysia Cup days

9) .......continue :smile:

JWNY
Your list is actually not too long ago, perhaps between 10 to 20 years.
I thought that 7 eleven still has softee floats?

11) Catch spiders

12) Play four stones, catching etc
It's 5 stones, not 4. Remember that you have to form a mini pyramid on your inverted palm, throw them in the air and catch them? :smile:
Do you remember this game called "tua beh long"? :smile:

How about zero point, one-leg, picture cards, tua bay long, hide & seek etc ?
Heheh, I also mentioned tua beh long in another post.
How about zero million, where you are not allowed to touch the rope? To train potential high jumpers. :smile:
