On our way back from Sainsbury, this group of bikers (seems like more than 50!!) were in front of us.
At the roundabout, they did this!!

Bird flu
1 bird flu case occur in UK. Both of us agreed not to eat poultry for awhile to be safe.
Today we decided to buy dinner home instead of cooking so we pop over to KFC and bought a bucket of 8 pieces chicken and some hot wings. Half way through our dinner, Sam turn to me and said "Aren't we suppose not to eat poultry!!"
Damn!!!
We did it again. The same situation occur to us when we were in Thailand which we agreed not to eat poultry. But on our last day of the trip, we had KFC for lunch and it was only after the meal did we realise " Ya hor, we are suppose not to eat poultry hor but we had KFC!!"
Apparantly, our mind don't register that KFC relates to poultry.

Car repaired..
Finally picked up our car after 9 days!! Was told that the repair would be 3 days but it was stretched to 9 days.... Somehow the courtesy car company seem to realise this long ago and gave us a rental agreement for 9 days (stated in the agreement sent to us the next day after we collect the courtesy car)!! Coincidence, I don't think so. Anyway, all these should be paid for by the bus company insurer as it wasn't our fault, see previous post.
Let's see the paint works and the new bumper,
Before repair and before washing the car!
After repair and the car washed by them
The paint works seem brillant!!
Miss driving our car, cos the courtesy car is too big for us, Too van-like and always feel that it might topple over when you turn left/right. The only good thing about the courtesy car, it's new (only 6 months old).

Today...
My last twenty-something birthday!!!
Going shopping now! Yeah!
Update... didn't buy anything.
So what did Sam gave me???
A swatch watch!!
Dinner??
Yes, homemade sushi, eat as much as you like!!
Dessert??
No cake, the one I want was sold out in M&S. So we bought the creme brulee from M&S instead. Finally the blow torch bought previously comes into use. Although you tend to pay a bit more for M&S food, the food quality is extremely good. Very creamy and tasty for this creme brulee, will buy it next time.
