The intermediate also more than Rm 500k is it? Wah Setia Tropika so expensive already.

Yep. Got it at a rm50k discount. Now no more discount. Somemore selling at about rm600. So lucky I got it just before this Chinese New Year. The low period.

Hmmm now im wonderin what to cook.

Could not reply earlier really sorry.

Dun worry about the toddy. Give me some ideas on what can be cooked? Worried that you may not find it suitable and an outing ruined.:o:o

Lamb/Pork ok? Spicy is fine?

Professor bro, looks like you are a meat eater....

As usual it has to be our Dearest Wuqi who gave me ideas on the nursery

Thanks Wuqi.

Credit must always go to the person who shared the info right? I must not take Wuqis credit away. He helped me here.

Ok giving directions i am no good. So Grago please dun come after me now k? He he...

From Tesco as you hit Jalan Bestari turn left. Head straight. You will find a chinese temple on the left... Just next to the temple is the nursery.

If you do not like this nursery. Continue to head straight on that road....You will find another nursery on the right...

You can get them to change the whole soil in your garden if you wish. They ususally quote by area and how many inches they need to fill up.

Thanks for the nursery tip will go find it over the weekend.

Cheers

Im an expert on starting Fire. So if you got trouble starting fire call me... Il come over.

Get good quality charcoal and fire starters. That should suffice. Tesco has reasonably good quality. I get mine from there and it works well.

Yes do the bbq outside. No problem.

The smoke will drive away most of the insects.

However there could be some mozzies. Hence light a mosquito coil and place at a strategic location.

Apply the Johnson n Johnson anti mozzie oil Works well....

Then no mozzies already. Enjoy your bbq.

If the smell permeates directly into my house im coming as well....

Oh no no.... i not coming.... vegetarian. I sure die...

Professor, you are welcome to my vegetarian bbq. I did vege bbq once in east coast park with sweet potatos, vegetarian satays, vege hotdogs, corns, different types of mushrooms, etc....yummy!

Try this. Use button mushroom. Dry it on a piece of paper towel after wash. Put into a plastic bag. put in some mayonaise. shake it thourghly. Then put in a lot of bread crumbs and shake the plastic bag again until all the the mushrooms are coated with the crumbs. Put in the mini oven and bake until golden brown. Yummy!

Yep. Don't go out at night lah. Silly thing, crime happens most of the time at night. Don't know why.

Yep, since there all more and more of us moving across the straits, I'd think its a good idea to band up and do something about the crime rate. Any suggestions?

This is just a suggestion, you know that reporter that came up with that article on Iskandar living several weeks back, get in touch with her, I think, and let her know. She might just do a follow-up piece and would be picked up by the National papers here, the authorities would surely look into this as these incidents are definetly a PR nightmare, especially when the govt. Is putting in a lot of money to attract investment to Nusajaya. Would hurt image if a foreign investor, be the person a Singaporean or an expat, was to be seriously hurt in a theft that went wrong.

Yep. I think we should have a reporter do regular reports on their crimes rates. This will be a wake up call for those fat fat matars.

Hey thanks for the quick tip. Im gonna buy lots of bags this weekend from Tesco.

Yeah the growth beads are a must.

Which colour/number growth beads do you use?

yea! and they are the cheapest i can find around. jusco has something similar at almost double the price.

i use the greenish blue ones. i agree they really induces a growth spurt.

if you don't mind me being gross, get your children to pee on it. free and works the same way its the nitrogen, phosphate and potassium that drives growth and pee has no lack of that plus more =D

for an extra decadence, butter (not margarine) the mushroom or drizzle with olive oil (the most fragrant you can get) prior to the crumbs.

No need to add oil bro, the mayonaise already has oil, plus the egg white and all....unless you wanna make the healthy variety lah, then substitute mayonaise with oil...

i think it'll be a natural phenomenon where public tolerance to petty theft reaches a tipping point. like the recent case where passerbys rush to beat up the thief en masse. if all of us become a community police on patrol everywhere we go, we might yet be a more effective force!

Remind me of my grannies farm in Singapore. They use pig shit for the vege....LOL!

 

[euphony]

there are increasing reports of people going around with 'AIDs' needles at petrol stations. I saw a potentially effective solution post on mcf. To grab the petrol nozzle and threaten to douse the person in petrol. I now carry a lighter on me. In case i encounter such cases. Also use your car's glass reflection to observe the environment around you as you pump watching out for approaching persons from time to time.

its a good way to 'freshen up' the soil since it is natural and 'organic' haha!

AP make sure it's the kids, not yours, pine trees will get "stunted" after that shock....... NOT shiok, OK

Euphony, as to rushing to beat the thief enmasse, someways to go yet on this action .... and you're right we ALL owe it to OUR society and selves to ensure that WE all keep alert and do something when we see something that's not right or out of the ordinary to call either the Police/authority. BUT please be care about confronting the suspicious character as the unexpected might occur i.e. pulls out a knife ( not as bad as a gun....)!!!!

I just joking with Bro Wuqi......... how can scold person like that one! ...... just pray. pray.

That's what I tell my wife when we buy "organic" food. Before it use to be "pee and poo".... then go high tech, synthetic pee and poo, now back to the original...... peoples pee and poo..... so less poison in the body..... ( please excuse the grossness, thought add to the levity in the subject...)
