Back to simple life?? What about common sense?

Just the other day, I was thinking "hmm...what to do for our happy hour..dont want the usual overpriced drink at a cafe.."
So I called the usual 'gang' and went down to the wharf in town..where all the satay stalls are...and I realised that I'd almost forgotten the beauty of sitting at a riverside table with a view of Kg Ayer on the other side, watching the sun set, having a few sticks of satay and coconut juice...traditional fare...although there were a few silly things like...you know there's a zebra crossing which spans the road from the riverside stalls to the parking lots opposite and absolutely no cars stop for you when you want to cross the road...or the slight whiff of fermenting river water due to the amount of rubbish in it...well I guess that adds to the quaint sights and sounds (smells??) of Brunei

In another time frame, last night I was going home from work...now I'm making a right turn to get up to the highway across a lane, now this junction is dark, fine I can see this one car's headlights, wait for it to pass, then go, then suddenly I see a dark blue Honda CRX with no headlights on screaming in VTEC zone down the road & I got the shock of my life....I mean its logical that if you want to kill yourself by limiting your vision fine, dont take collateral damage with you...after crossing the road, barely, looking into the rearview mirror and see that its brake lights ARE on but not its headlights...prat...

Recipie for??

Hello world...Im back!! If you're wondering where Ive been these couple of days well Ive been travelling with friends...okok...yea it was just over the sea to Labuan (*AGAIN??!!!!*) Well I was craving...so anyway here's a recipie for craziness...get off boat dehydrated...buy a few bottles of wine..go to Murphy's..have a beer along with Bangers & Mash (fancy name for sausages and mashed potato), have a liquer mix..go back and open a wine...finish that, bring TWO bottles to Sheraton with intention for dinner BUT have a cocktail first at the bar...then go down to dinner..now here is where it gets crazy...ignore one of YOUR own bottles while paying the corkage fee, to purchase a bottle of SHERATON's wine (well..no arguments but it was Californian Napa Valley Zinfandel, who can resist??) with dinner...then peruse a Sheraton voucher to purchase 1kg (ONEWHOLEKILOOFCAKE WHAT WERE WE THINKING OMG!!!!) go back and open yet another bottle of beer...u knw, this gives me a sense of deja-vu here...anyway yea u know what...after that dinner in Sheraton Labuan..I question the economics of having dinner in Sheraton Brunei...dinner for 3 at Sheraton Brunei costs roughly around B$150+...while that Labuan dinner for 3, including the Zinfandel cost RM$160 (ok so we had a Starwood card but RM160??!!!) as always its Sheraton, excellent food & service...good company (u know who you are amongst us 3 but u were on Cloud 9 after 1st realising that they had that Zinfandel, and then drinking it!!!) anyway yea all in all a great holiday, pity we got rained out for a bit...but yea..memories to remember by..good food, wine and laughs all the way....cheers, bottoms up, toasts to health, work, whatnot.....Im goin to bed now..
