Wah, you are something...wonder whether you are familar with my quiz...try to guess no matter what... Cheers!Originally posted by Superbus:For Question 7, here is my last and final answer ----> [color=blue]Service 354, NTUC Pasir Ris Downtown East.
oh man... i will be in the same boat with u if i edit...hehe!Originally posted by tranquilice:Ok, I would like to clarify with you on question 10. This long narrow hill-top may or may not exist now, but from the name of this terminal only, it means a long narrow hill-top. Doesn't matter if it's really on a hill-top or not. I have edited the question.
For question 7, this round-about is in the east and only this service loops at this round-about. Other services just pass by it. I have also edited the question to include the name.
