Vintage Car

I saw this vintage car at the carpark of changi museum. It looked so lovely.

It has a red license plate which indicate it is a weekend car. The Weekend Car Scheme allowed the owner of a car to drive it only during specified hours, mainly on weekends. The objective of this system was to allow Singaporeans, especially the lower income groups, to own cars without contributing to traffic congestion and also to those who only need to drive their cars only on weekends.

My World Tuesday - Sculpture Square

This is a methodist church known as Kampong Kapor Methodist Church at Middle Road. It has a long history and is one of the oldest church in Singapore and protected as a heritage building. It has since moved to a new location and this present church is part of the sculpture square.



The church was formerly known as "Malay Church" because they conduct their services in malay to cater to malay speaking christains. For more of its rich history you can view their offical website.

Love the beautiful windows of the church.

Around the church you can also see lots of sculptures.

For more information on the sculpture square you can view their official website .

Skywatch Friday-Star

Wow I managed to take a photo of a star. This star was so bright and big and using my inexpensive camera and zooming on it, I was surprised that the camera could take shot of the star.

This video was taken two days ago. You could see a quick flash of the lightning and the sound of thunder roaring so fiercely. It was raining so heavy. I was afraid to continue taking video cause it is not safe to be standing near the window. No chance of taking photos of lightning.

For other sky watchers, please hop over to Skywatch blog.

Emergency HandBook and Multi purposes tool

This is the emergency handbook that every household in Singapore had. I hope they dont throw this book away.

An example of what you can put in your emergency bag.

Some extras you might want to consider putting in too.

Guess what is this!

Without looking at the second photo, can you already guess what this is?

I have fun and laughter reading the previous post on what some wanted to include in their emergency bags. I guess we wanted some luxuries too during an emergency. :)

Lincoln-coffeepot
Alice-two small pillows
Pinto-coffeepot and two pillows
Micelle-something to be able to cook
Kitem-a bottle of whiskey
Dong -umbrella
My Friend-laptop
Another Friend-her bolster

What about the rest of you? Do you want some luxuries in your emergency bag? This is just for fun only.

This is a multi purposes tool which looked like this after opening up all the gadgets. It acted as a scissors, opening, small knife file, etc

Ok, this going into my emergency bag too. :)

Mesh Tin

We were told to have a ready bag or emergency bag in case of a disaster. What is a ready bag?

READY Bag contains a collection of essential items (eg. torchlight, radio, medicine, etc) that will help you in an emergency.

The READY Bag will not help a person to survive every emergency or calamity. But the READY Bag contains items which could be handy in an emergency. (Sources from SCDF ).

I think I will include a mesh tin into my emergency bag. :) This is a lesson learn from my mom when she grab a cooking pot during WW2 while everyone grab sacks of rice but no cooking pot. (As mentioned in my earlier post.)

The mesh tin will be useful if one needs to boil water, cook some rice or heat up some food in an emergency.

Do you have an emergency bag? What do you include in it?
