This Buangkok is a case of poor planning at the govt part... They had expected flats to be up and ready by 2001, yet till now the land around is barren -

Well, last weekend I was kept indoors. Not only to recover from, erm, I don't know what I got, perhaps a flu bug but it was really brrr COLD. With the windchill, it was like minus 19. Walking home from church yesterday without a hood? Oh my goodness, I thought my ears had frost-bite. -
well, it's -19 there...
my boss got admitted into hospital.. her fever didn't go down so she ended up in hospital for observation...

From the recollection of seeing pic of the interior of your car, erm, I can imagine your room.
Well, I believe in whatever makes one happy.......well, as long as it is not my house.
Oh, hope your boss gets well soon too. Sigh........cannot stress enough, good health, good health, good health............. -

Hello, LS! Are you fully recovered now? Hope that bug last week didn't take too much out of you!Originally posted by littlestream:Ah.........oic.

I know exactly what you mean about wind chill. Several years ago, not long after I started working here, we experienced one of the coldest winters on record (this was back in the early 90s). It was after work and I was walking from the office lobby to my car out in the lot--perhaps about 200 yards. It was cold but the blowing wind made it feel much worse. I was bundled up nicely, but stupidly neglected to wear the ear muffs. When I got to the car and feeling returned to my ears, I was hit with the most painful earache I had ever experienced. The pain was so intense that I seriously thought I would pass out. Not fun! -
But has there been any discussion about raising ministerial salaries?Originally posted by av98m:Imagine my suprise. -
Orh, no lah. You don't call it winter cleaning. You call it...okay, in Cantonese ah, "sai lat tat". You do this on the lunar 12 month 28th day. Actually, there is a rhyme to this :Originally posted by laurence82:for new year leh

Where have you been? Busy pak-toring is it? Well, hope you had an enjoyable festive season with your SO then eh?
Yeap. I have been taken ill. Actually, this IS round 2. Was sick then recovered. I guess not fully and then kena again. I took last weekend to rest at home. Besides, the Spring-like weather abandoned us and winter took shape on late Friday night. I only went outdoors to walk to church which is just across the street. Yeap, kay kiang. Didn't wear my hood. Although the walk was only 1 or 2 minutes, oh man!!! My ears!!!! Yeap, no fun! I'm not taking chances. Definitely bundling up this morning, walking from parking lot to office.
