Hmm...there's this Skinny Pizza in Suntec City (near the entrance where Balaclava is) and the feedback has been largely good. If that's too crowded a few places in China Square are open through the weekend, like Aglio Olio.

Hmm? The charge lasts about three days' worth of normal use....
I just charge it up every single night.

My friends complained that their spiciness is not nearly spicy enough while I find it about what I should expect.![]()

I leave my phone idling around and the charge usually lasts 2 to 2.5 days....
Went to lower the brightness to minimum to try to extend the standby time.
Thanks anyway.

Yowch....hope she recovers quickly.....
Is it the steps in the centre of the bus?
Its a trade-off thing....to lower the floor of the front part of the bus, everything underneath goes to the rear.

those handicapped friendly buses are actually pretty dangerous. I refuse to move into the rear part of the bus because of the higher step.

I think its pretty clear what kind of "low-floor" buses people asked for and then later kpkb about. The major components are all at the rear. This one results in 2 steps in the centre, and then yet another step at the rear to accomodate the engine and gearbox. Which IMO, means boarding the bus and moving to rear is a real pain in the arse...
