Jolly Shandy peach and lychee!

Why can I never get a straight answer from a man? We’re planning a trip to Guernsey (an island) dead early tomorrow morning, so I need to know what time we have to leave so I can set my alarm.
Me: What time do we have to leave home?
Piers: No earlier than an hour before the time we have to be there – which is an hour before we sail (6 am).
Took me 11 minutes of questioning, during which time I got more riddles, before I received the answer: 4 am.
Piers “invented” a really delicious Asian snack combo: Prawn crackers with hoisin sauce! So proud of him!
I also found this awesome lemongrass-flavoured prawn crackers at Tesco. From Netherlands, but makers were Indoneisan settlers. Tastes so great when you dip into hoisin sauce (sparingly)!
Yeah I know my photos are missing from my blog header. Looks very funny, doesn’t it?
Nanny Wen (aka Buggy Wen aka Davienne) says it reminds her of Harry Potter’s moving picture people.
Guess my photos are taking a break. They’ve gone into hiding because it’s been raining a lot in England and the weather forecast says it’s going to hail tomorrow.
IN THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER!
Crazy or not.
I thought I’d be in discomfort for a year because I was finding it impossible to get used to Invisalign in my mouth. But just 11 days into it, I hardly feel it anymore.
Was playing on my iPad before bed last night when I suddenly couldn’t feel plastic in my mouth and for one horrifying moment, thought that I had forgotten to put my aligners back on after dinner, which was ages ago.
Turned out it’s just my mouth has started to adapt.
Quote of the day
Me: I want a pet duckling!
Piers: LOL why!!!
Me: Cos they’re so cute.
Piers: All baby things are cute! Except babies.
A transport provider in the UK just sent me an e-mail asking me to take part in an online survey to help improve services.
So I go there and answer two questions (age and last time I used the service) and they say:
“Thank you for your time. Unfortunately, you do not qualify for the survey as this time around we are looking to survey our more senior customers (over 60) only.”
WTF fail.
Was googling the difference between biscuits and cookies and got linked to a Yahoo! Answers page. This guy’s answer made me LOL.
“The difference between the biscuit and the cookie is the Atlantic.
Plus, American biscuit more like a savory scone
Plus English biscuit is an American cookie.
Plus English or American cookie is in your computer to do stuff that no one really understands.”
Being too ambitious (or greedy). Two heaped bowls of ricotta and spinach tortelloni in bolognese sauce, with six sausages and three baby zucchinis thrown into the mix. A roll of garlic bread and a bottle of wine. Delicious!
Yay I got white tulips! My favouritest flowers. :)
England has the most beautiful flowers. Tulips and roses in white with pale pink. Gerberas in strawberry milk pink. Makes me happy!
Just read in detail about foot binding in ancient China. I always thought they just wrapped up the feet during infancy to stop them from growing.
But, no! They wait till the girl is 4-7 years old, then break her toes and arch bones so that the toes can curl under the sole. Without anaesthesia.
After wrapping the monstrous creation tightly, the girl is then forced to walk on her broken feet so her weight can help crush them into shape. The feet are crushed and rebound daily for like two years! WTF is wrong with people?!
Cool!
You look cute in that photo! :D
Hi guys, is it advisable to get a ps3 versus an xbox360 if i dun care abt blu-ray or online gaming?
Seems to me that 99% of great games on ps3 will be on xbox but not the other way round and i am afraid if i buy the ps3 it will become obsolete like the sega saturn back then.
If you do not care about either, then get which ever tha you think is the best looking in your room. Or you can choose it depending on which controller you feel more comfortable with.
Among the 3 consoles, PS3 has the least chance of becoming obsolete. Anyway I would recommend the xbox if you are a singaporean. Though I am pro Sony Playstation, the dedication of MS to their consumers has moved me. Unlike Playstation Asia, they dun get a sh!t about you.
Thanks for the reply goonfather. Is there a huge difference between the sixaxis and the dualshock controller? Because the newer 80gb set with dualshock has yet to come to our shores yet and im wondering if i shld wait for that.
The dualshock 3 is a sixaxis controller with force feedback. And it weighs much heavier too.
Hmmm….. I am not sure if the newer 80gb you are referring to, is the same as the 80gb I know. The last I heard is that the newer version is coming with a 120gb and 160gb config with DS3 controllers. The 80gb is just not worth it, in my opinion. Save the additional cash by buying a 40gb, and use it to buy a 320gb sata HDD to upgrade it. The 40gb version is running on the 65nm cell processor, which is more energy efficient and runs cooler.
Unless you intend to wait for the 160gb PS3, your best bet on a PS3 is the 40gb version, which retails at $559 now.
Oh, the 80gb i was referring to is the one that will take over the 40gb model as it has been phased out. Apparantly, both the 40gb(the one you have) and the 80gb that i was referring to has the 65nm cell processor.
After reading some reports, the biggest question that is still lingering is whether the RSX will be 65nm too for the new 80gb line. There seems to be 2 processors in a ps3 but the RSX has maintained at 90nm so far.
If you didnt mention abt the cell size I wouldnt have known this. Thanks. :)
Hmm… So they have decided not to go with the 120gb and 160gb configuration. Well, there are 2 processor, the cell and the RSX. The cell is the main processor for the PS3(like the CPU in your PC) and the RSX is the graphics processor(the processor on your PC video card). Your question has made me venture out to find the answer, and it seems like the new 80gb is using the 65nm. No official statements yet I think, but you can read it here. http://www.nordichardware.com/news,8063.html
Thanks goonfather. Watever the case, ill just get the 80gb when it comes cause ive already got a spanking new gta4 waiting. :)
But you know what? I would rather get the xbox now. And feel the love from xbox team singapore. With PS3, you will be treated like some bastard child. Only america, japan and europe gets the love.
