So what's the fare range these days?Originally posted by sbst275:Sometimes it was really bad like the RSAF Open Hse... The operator did not even bother to reschedule, ended up the frequency dragged from 30 mins to 40 mins per bus. To make it worst, they told me that they deployed more buses - I think it's ghost buses

why do you think the free world not happy with ASEAN taking in Burma?
heck! i'm not happy that they're in ASEAN either... -
relatively cheap.. if you have a stored value card.. i think from 65 cents to $1.50 or something like that..
however, being the main mode of transport for almost all Singaporeans, they're making ridiculous profits...

For sure! And Japan too. It was wonderful there, for me, public transportation-wise.Originally posted by sbst275:Spoiled by SBS alrdy Speaking of transportation, we took the vicious one on the tour of the base here. When we drove alongside the USS Nimitz she was in awe. She also did a spot of shopping at the base, buying a navy ballcap. So in awe is she that she's asking my hubster to introduce her to a fellow single sailor. Happy to say that the hubster found her one. Don't know when the date is though. You'll have to pry it out of her. -

I think we're the only country in Asia to introduce fare stage fares...Originally posted by the Bear:relatively cheap.. if you have a stored value card.. i think from 65 cents to $1.50 or something like that..

In HK it's flat fare... Like for Cross Harbour Rts, it can be HK$22 irregardless of distance travelled -
something's strange.. very strange..
the chinese sinseh says i got too much "heat" in me.. suggested i take something "cool"
i kinda believe him coz everytime my muscles seize up and i'm aching like mad, my breath is VERY hot..
this morning, my left shoulder was aching like blazes.. so i took some "yang sheng" or American Ginseng.. said to be "cool"
put some hot water over it in my office coffee mug and drank the foul tea..
my shoulder feels less tense already!
still kinda tight but the intense ache is gone! -
i'll say its expensive given the government-given monopoly and ridiculous profitsOriginally posted by the Bear:relatively cheap.. if you have a stored value card.. i think from 65 cents to $1.50 or something like that..

kekekeeke ... this is so cute ....
the fillipino janitors are complaining to me about the young ang moh pukes we have working at our factory at the other side of town ...
apparently, the place is a hell hole, with turd all over the toilet seats ....
maybe ... some of them were closet singaporean peasants ... -
I'm happy to see that you can still ride on a bus for 60cents. I've always preferred the non-a/c service anyway.Originally posted by sbst275:For trunk svs

There are very few non a/c buses or in fact services that totally uses non a/c busesOriginally posted by jetta:I'm happy to see that you can still ride on a bus for 60cents. I've always preferred the non-a/c service anyway.
By next year, all the non a/c single decks would be scrapped leaving the 96 non a/c double decks being the only non a/c buses
Svs: 6, 11, 32, 35, 37, 74, 79, 82, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 103, 112, 113, 125, 151, 154, 179, 182, 186, 191, 192, 193, 200, 229, 242, 246, 249, 251, 252, 254, 255, 257, 265, 315, 317, 354, 359, 403
Of which 6, 11, 35, 90, 91, 94, 151, 186, 191, 192, 200, 246, 249, 251, 252, 254, 255, 257 are either totally non a/c or majority of the buses used are non a/c -
btw ... beer is "cooling" .....

beer is indeed cooling
Stout is considered heaty...
Anyway, I think it's bbb's birthday today.. But I dunno cos of the title of the thread -
okay.. i need to buy some crap for some senior citizens visiting our Heritage Gallery in the office building..
we invited them.. we're going to feed them (solved already) and give them stuff...
budget is pegged at $10 per person.. about 30 of them..
what kind of doohickey should i go look for?
these people are part of the Senior Citizen Neighbourhood Watch thing for the police.. just that they helped us do some stuff, so we invited them for a walkabout at our Heritage Gallery...
we've given them the usual mugs, flashlights and whatever already...
i'm stumped for ideas -

Actually when you reach PLAOriginally posted by jetta:My next visit back, I'm calling you first.
90, 94 which are the only services to serve there, are the king of non a/c buses esp 90... 90 uses the most number of non a/c Scania buses -

I seem to have gotten out on the wrong side of the bed today.
My flu seems to be abating, but I've still got a bloody migraine which paracetamol can't seem to do anything about.
I can't take the prescribed codeine sulphate, cos that's the surefire way of sleeping during the lectures later. And I can't sleep, cos the lectures later are pretty important.
I forgot to bring my laptop adaptor, and as a result, my laptop is as good as deadweight for my backpack, since my laptop battery spluttered and died a few weeks ago.
Arrrgh.....
