Question: can one run 2.4km IPPT carrying an umbrella?

That is why the younger generation are weaklings and wimps.

Look what they have done to the playgrounds. No more sand, concrete and steel. All you get these days are rubber and plastic with rounded edges.

Most kids don't even get to play outdoors spontaneously. Playtime has to be structural and compartmentalized by the parents.

during my time, where got this type of playground?

last time play whole block catching. can be equivalent to army SOC. normally, we will play WBC(whole block catching, after some activity, like badminton). we will be carrying our racquets and 1.25 litres of soft drink bottles (last time dont have 1.5 and 2litres, only 1.25) and run. knn, to escape the catcher, sometimes we will jump from 2nd storey to the ground floor. cb, i got 1 friend jump from 3rd storey, and i swear he is alright.

How much running do you need to do to be translator for the other side?

Maybe LKY can give a speech on that. If LKY see no need to fight, why must sinkies do IPPT to fight?
