Bro sin, aiyah, told you many time to exercise regularly and kept fit like me but you don't listen. You see, I climb the Mt Faber and run the Southern Ridge without any problem. No sweat at all. After that, can enjoy the famous Lor Mee. :tease:
Another thing, never visit bolehland during long holiday period. It will be JAM, JAM, JAM every where. SG to JB custom - JAM, NS Hw - JAM, shopping centers - JAM. Makan places - JAM. JB back to SG - JAM.
No more ''chicken biscuit'' ? My friend just came back from Kampar with few packets. :peace: :peace: :peace:

My goodness, could not imagine the jam could be that bad! And presumably the jam is originating from Spore's side?

My last day of trip, we went to the sam poh tong where we need to climd the stairs to the upper level of the cave, now my whole body is aching and i walk like a cripple. :lol:

And the best is massive jam on the NS highway, somewhere near kulai i think, a whole stretch of 50 plus KM. ](*,)

The next bogus encounter is the custom jam, a solid 4 hours to clear both customs and i finaaly reach home at 1am yesterday., the sarcastic part is there a sign along the NS highway that read "PLEASE USE 2ND LINK TO AVOID JAM"......WTF!!!!!

Now sorting out the photo, hopefully i can upload some tonight. :thumbsup:

Cheers.


I always remind others the NS highway sign is AN ADVERTISEMENT , NOT TRAFFIC ANNOUNCEMENT !

I came back Monday evening by causeway. At JB lorry custom, NO CAR AT ALL . Sgp custom < 5 cars. My brother got stucked at 2nd Link for 3 hrs also.
For long weekend , Never use 2nd Link.

p/s :Gua Tempurung in Ipoh is more fun than those SamPoh Cave or Perak Tong, IMO
