4128. SINGAPORE MRT SUBWAY STATIONS

19 Oct 2022:

WHERE DOES THIS HAMSTER LIVE?  IN SINGAPORE.

The dwarf hamster with the black mass dangling from her mouth lives in Singapore which has around 6 million people as at Oct 2022. Singapore is a city state with a good network of subway stations called MRT stations which are well located next to the bus station. Most people take the subway and bus to work or to shop as cars are very expensive her.

(Below is the image of Tai Seng and Bishan MRT and videos)

4127. CAR MAINTENANCE. Metallic screeching sounds from my car

18 Oct 2022 was my Audi car servicing appointment for my car with the metallic screeching sound some 2 weeks ago. There were no more sounds. I had not wanted to go. My older technician had gone to the a BMWr employer, but the young man replacing him provided good service too.

The rear brakes were bled out of air bubbles. So it was fortunate I went and reached there at 8 AM.

 

EXCELLENT AFTER-SALES SERVICE. REFRESHMENTS.
The tea lady who worked for 8 years was on leave today, so one of the 4 after-sales girls made the coffee. She could not ink a leaf on the Spinelli (Old blend) coffee in my cup of coffee.

2. Very well trained in after sales service. The four old girls had not returned after the Covid-19 had closed borders and they could not go home to Malaysia for around 2 years. No problem with replacements who are well trained. One said I was not entitled to the $10.00 taxi voucher as my car was not sent in for routine servicing. She offered me the shuttle bus service. I thanked her but decided to walk to the Tai Seng MRT station as exercise. 

3. An LED screen displaying and welcoming customers who sent in the far for service could be a good idea.

4126. SINGAPORE STORIES - Bamboo trees in the Shiseido Forest Valley

18 OCT 2022.
Bamboo trees in the Shiseido Forest Valley -  Jewel Changi Airport.
What species is it? The stalks are thin unlike some bamboos in the forests of Japan and other countries.
I think one or two big-stalked bamboo trees will be most impressive and attractive to tourists and locals.

4125. Elephant's Ear plant Singapore

 Elephant’s ear plants thrive along the bank of the Seletar Simpang Kiri River, Singapore. Can cause nausea, diarrhoea, delirium and death upon ingestion

 Elephant's ear plants are toxic when eaten as they contain calcium oxalate crystals in the sap. They are usually pest and disease resistant and make excellent ornamental foliage plants as the heart-shaped leaves are very large.
