  back from work..

  yesterday, can't believe fudgy went to the inhumanly long queue for Crocks...

  if he went in the morning, the queue was so long, and moving.. the bloody expo hall is like a moshpit, and we went at 3pm, the queue was still snaking through the adjacent empty hall, where the hell did all these people come from?

  because at 6pm, there were still people in the adjacent hall lining up.. and at 9pm (yes!! 9pm!!) there were still people lining up (although not in the adjacent hall anymore) to get into the place.. and the hall was still like a moshpit!

  anyway, zora and i were joined by the ferret... and we had a go at the food fest...

  round 1 pics...

  
  Massive Crowd of Makandos

  
  Spicy Fish Fillet being prepared

  
  Mango Sticky Rice Thai Dessert

  
  Bak Kwa sale!

  
  "Abacus" and Kong Bak in the background

  
  Yam Paste

  
  Cupcakes and Muffins

  
  Duck Parts (which included Duck Tongues which I ate)

  
  Waxed meats

  
  Braised Pork Bun or Kong Bak Pau

   

  after which we went to the MPH Book Sale for massive amounts of books, and then the Furniture Exhibition... followed by Round 2 of the food fest.. we didn't take pics this time coz too busy eating...

  we then went upstairs to get some bargain linen.. and went home...

  it was a day of bargains

  As for bus svs, it's still tat bus 400 tat runs at 38 mins freq, else there's e free shuttle service at every 30 mins at the Marina Bay MRT bus stop

  I cant believe it!  There is no more Neril Anti Hair Loss Shampoos!

  Was searching high and low, even walked to some obscure tolietries shops to find it.

   

  Cannot find!  Die!  Sis wanted more of those shampoos.  Thats about the reason I am going to California!  To bring her those shampoos!

  Now cannot find!  *Panic PANIC Panic!!!*
