Thats sad but true. The 3 smallest cars of the group. But we're all going up to clear carbon together right?

Yeah I got to get some other Ms to go too. Can't let you take all the glory and be the sweeper all the way you see.

Don't know where else to go except for chicken rice balls. Heck, don't even know if I still remember how to get there. Anyway we only eat there once a year so it ain't so bad. Unless you got some other ideas...
There are a few other places to eat. there is this popular Paranakan food but dont know the name. Know how to get there though. Also, there is this coffee shop sell very good Otah (prepacked and frozen for bringing back to Singapore). Never fail to buy whenever in malacca. Also, not to forget the desserts! ahhh...one meal, so much to eat...

Love to join you guys up to Malacca. Eager to take the car up for a good drive myself. I can't be sure if I can make it till later in the week. Let's see how. If so, can take you guys to some of the places I know.

It'll be great to join us. Think the old gang is sick of me being their lousy tour guide.

yo fire,

didnt know you from ipoh.my wife also from there.i travel up to this small town called sitiwan twice a year very fun drive up but plenty of speed traps along those b roads.

ed i dont think theres any fishing in malacca unless you want small tilapia or cat fish and the odd toman.but then dont think you want to drive your m into the wild, ponds within. i have fished a great part of malaysia from fish to prawns..ha ha.

can some tell me why the window rattles but when you apply this leather conditioner it goes away.so what is the actual problem and how does this conditioner solves it temporarily.

rattles or more like creaks.... it is due to friction. some of us have the magic tape applied along the frame when the door inteface and it seems like a good fix coz it still works to date. Conditioners has wetting property acting as lubricants.

eggz... you got PM!

hi ed,

i used to 6-7 years back ,hired boat out to malasysian and indo waters armed with gps. indo waters better but worried about pirates.

had a near miss in straits of malacca, stormy weather and the anchor got stuck that put me off i cant swim, dont think any one can survive a storm if fell over board.

best fishing was in the maldives plenty of whopping big wahoo.

have you noticed less and less fish now. all taken by comercial fishing.

my dream holiday would be to fish salmon with the grizzly in alaska..hahaha.working on it now.

do you fish often and if so where ,any big catch?
