Look What My Rest Day Turns Up

Look What Men's Folio Has This Two Months
You should read the current edition of Men's Folio. There is now something called a Mandarin Collar Society which advocates mandarin collars as a kinda formal wear instead of the usual tie.


I thought this is such a swell idea and that formal attire could be further loosened up by just putting on a blazer, vest or jacket rather than a suit.


In this bi-monthly issue, there is also a feature on two newest mega shopping malls that are coming up in KL. It sounds really exciting and there is gonna be a park integrated within one of the malls.


They have also brought in new and exciting brands, not just the regular brands we are so accustomed to.


Basically it just boils down to the whole concept of shopping, dining, sports, leisure and entertainment, all under one roof.


Harvesting The Fruits At Bottle Tree Park
My second trip to the Bottle Tree Park today sees some contractors harvesting the fruits. This is really good. They should. I mean I spent tens of dollars in just one week buying up those fresh fruits from the supermarket. And here are some of the juiciest and bestest of our own home-grown products laying to waste.


But students and teachers of the English language will find the notices pasted on the wooden pillars holding up the attap shelters a minefield for grammatical errors. These are notices which are rules and regulations for anglers angling at the fish ponds.


I mean you can see all kinds of diffferent plural/singular form misuse, misagreement of verbs and subjects, non-punctuation when it is necessary and wrong usage of words (heal when it should be heed).


Excellent teaching and learning tool.
