YowCH & Grace

David went to Kallang for canoe camp over 27 and 28 Mar (no photos). YowCH fetched Grace from work after her morning shift and had lunch at Kallang, then picked David before we went to church.

David’s birthday continues to Sorrento after church on Sat 27 Mar, Grace’s mom made a cake for David, and we had dinner together.

YowCH noticed that the Odyssey rear right wheel had a puncture. We limped to Alexandra Village to try to get it patched, but the damage was too much (due to the side wall crushed with insufficient air), so we had to change to another tyre.

Managed to get a replacement of the same model Goodyear Eagle F1 A5, but not the same size, 225-45-18 instead of 235-45-18 (so the wheel is 1.1% smaller). $70 for the 2nd hand rubber.

On Sunday, we had lunch at Kallang again after swim (David at canoe, Grace at work).

And dinner at Ichiban Sushi, Novena Square, prior to picking Grace from work. David resting at home after canoe. We packed some food for Grace.

YowCH has been maintaining his fitness with gym and swim, now that running is not possible while the leg fracture is healing.

Two new female Transformers – Moonracer and Chromia.

Grace made a simple dinner on 22 Mar, chicken feet soup!

24 Mar, David’s birthday. He is now 17. We had dinner at Carrara.


YowCH bought him a Chinese chess set. They played a short game after dinner, took more than 1 hour.

On 25 Mar, YowCH attended a BCA seminar. 50 persons in the auditorium, everyone seated more than 1.0m apart.

Later at night, YowCH and Grace had dinner after Grace’s afternoon duty, at Sin Hoi San.

YowCH added a set of sleep head-rests to the Odyssey, very nice and matching, and very comfortable to sleep on. Good buy at $33 with postage included (shipped from China, through Lazada).

At work, YowCH organised a meeting with all of Chye Joo’s project managers. Had a nice and casual time discussing work matters over dinner. YowCH paid for the chicken rice (from Fook Sing) and drinks (beer, light beer and root beer).

Esther received her first dose of Covid vaccine on Sunday, 14 March, arranged by Rainbox Centre.

For lunch, we at at Duckland, a Tunglok restaurant. Very tasty.

In the evening, we invited the Yongs over for popiah dinner. This time round, we made our own popiah skin.




David doesn’t like popiah, so he made Japanese garlic fried rice (yummy).

On 17 March, we met Grace’s parents and had dinner together at Anchorpoint.

YowCH saw the doctor for his leg injury on 11 March and also took X-rays. There is a very small hairline fracture, so he will need to avoid load bearing for 3 months.




The tongkat wore off after 2.5 weeks!
