How to Move your Entire Wardrobe Intact

If you've moved house before and used any professional mover any less than Shenker, you'd probably have had to remove your clothes from the cupboard one by one, remove the hanger, fold it as neatly as possible, then gingerly put it in a carton box, then pray they wouldn't have to be ironed all over again. 

If you have a lot of moolah, they usually provide a custom made box to hang your clothes. But if your moolah can be effectively employed elsewhere, do what i did...

1. Get tall sturdy carton box.

2. Use a pen knife to cut 2 small holes on either side of the carton.

3. Get a good golf umbrella. Insert through the holes.

Voila! All there's left to do is to lift your clothes and hang it on the umbrella. I made 2 of these and saved myself hours of ironing. 

Westie in the wind

Here's adorable Tiger with his fav ele toy, up against the wind. Tiger is trying to adapt to my new place. He has been watching bikini babes and hunks in the swimming pool just below my 2 balconies. When we swim, he whines nonstop like he wants to go out too. And the funny part is that he will run to and fro from the living room balcony to my bedroom balcony when we swim our laps, following our progress.

We secretly brought him into the pool once and it was hilarious! He would head for 'shore' the moment he plunged in but he can't climb out all by himself so he would be paddling for his dear doggy life like the end of the world. We stopped cos it was past midnight and the neighbours wouldn't be too pleased to be woken up by raucous laughter and splashing and discovering our pet doing a micheal phelps.

Trip to the Nursery

Visited some nurseries last week. The weather was so darn hot that I got an ugly tan just frolicking among the plants! This pic shows some of the lovely plants that are now my very own just outside my balcony. I hope I don't kill them again. Never had green fingers; even cacti wither and die under my care.

At first glance you will be forgiven for thinking these are condoms with strings attached to them, hanging out to dry and reuse!!! lol! Anyway these are pitcher plants and the weird contraptions trap unsuspecting insects attracted to the sweet scent lingering in the air. I looked inside hoping to find some victims but they were empty. Actually it's a bit sick, the whole concept of plant-eating-animals. 

the VOCA PEOPLE

This internationally-acclaimed a cappella group is so good I thought they really deserve an honorable mention on my blog! 

Click on the video and get entertained by Britney, old Jacko, Madonna impersonations. Wacky sense of humour!

The Real Spider Man

Forget about Parker the Spider Man. Just watch this guy do his thing. He's so at home on the rocks it's almost effortless.

Cool Pix

Haha..gotcha didn't it? Wonder what the cat was doing lying down at the side of the road like that. Isn't it kinda uncomfy, not to mention dangerous.

This one is breathtaking...salt crystals under the jetty creating the look of a forlorn, bleak wintry day. From another angle this looks like the jetty was taking off on pillars of rockets.

I like the cat's wry expression and the toddler's look of absolute fascination. 

Good thing this one's a pic and not real life. Nope, not a fan of six-legged creepies, even though they look really pretty here. Strange that I used to play with ladybirds as a child, pulling out their wings so that they wouldn't fly away and stay by my side, in my pencil case. I brought them to school to stave boredom away!

This one is really cute...the cocky cockerel leading the way across the stream with his harem of snow white hens in utter admiration. They were too 'chicken' to cross the stream i think. Why did the chicken cross the stream? ...to get to the other side. Haha! Another stupid chicken joke.

This one I like...never knew praying mantis came in this colour. It reminds me of one of those Chinese traditional dancers striking a pose. So graceful. Unfortunately, some male mantis live short lives. Usually they fall prey to their female counterparts while mating with them. The female, usually twice its size will often eat the male during the consummating process. Sometimes they bite off the heads first, leaving the body to complete the job.
