    for me need only a fan at moderate speed on a hot afternoon to take a nap, no need any in the morning as it is cool. couldn't tell if it is the effect of the layer underneath roof tiles. It seems common to install the layer as all the unfinished 2-storey semi-D that I could see in LE have it.

    frankly i thought when i first saw the foil at a construction site, that it was meant to stop water that has seeped thru the gaps of tiles from dripping on to ceiling.

    quite sure it is a lack of standard operating procedure; if not, then a lack of training. I got in & out by 2d link many times with MACS before an officer asked me to thumbprint. He then put a sticker in my passport & advised me to show it if I would be asked to thumbthumb again. However, since...

    that's what i thought, MACS needs no finger print; besides the news report i read in malysian newspaper was oldies and kids were exempted. but on tuesday i came in via 2nd link by bus, and the courteous english-speaking immigration officer asked me to scan fingers and then stick a piece of...

    I happened to check out the shop last Friday on the way back across the Causeway. The shop is run by an old couple. It has a variety of swings, but I think they are built for lover birds sitting next to each other, or sitting on 2 seats facing each other. I am looking for a simple single seat...
