Catch spider. Nostalgic indeed! Last time i got a rich classmate that i often sold my spiders to. my daily pocket money is $1 and i can sell him $20- $50 per spider :D

catch grasshoppers and ants as well :)
 
magnolia bar and fitzpatrick ( dont know whether correct spelling )
 
Car park (Orchard rd), where I could afford my dates with push cart hawker eats. Afternoons opposite to magnolia snack bar for ice cream.

Then on to movie date at old Orchard cinema (line up earlier in day to buy $2 back stalls, else ll kena $3 circle seats).

Taxi (no aircon) with flag up rate $0.60 to send date home, then sbs home

House parties, with organiser buying 3 star cockerel brand brandy to put in fruit cocktail. Music by vinyl records (many pirated). Gals lined up opposite 1 side and us guys trying to look macho. Once music slow down, some gals play tai chi (no dancing cheek to cheek).

No erp? Got this restricted zone (ALS disc), but can tumpang some youths to make 3/4 to enter city limits. 1 ALS disc can use all day, transferable.

Fort Canning, paktor and snuggling up (before 81), or wheels at secluded car park lots like mount faber, with glass windows all fogged up):p
