The trip up North . . . Prai

Boss: The customer in Prai called up. Seems their lines are down.
Me: OK, let me call them to confirm........

[Doot doot... doot doot...] After dialing more than 10 minutes, no one answered, so I had to reach them via their Boss's mobile phone.

Me: Hello, Boss. Heard your lines are down la.
Customer: Yeah, we can't call out and out customers can't call in.
Me: OK, you can call internally or not?
Customer: No la. Everything is out
Me: How about the Sales side?
Customer: Same with them too. Everything out
ME: OK, I'll come as soon as I can. [Click] Boss, confirmed system down
Boss: OK, you go to Prai. Now.

And halfway into the journey, my mobile phone rang and when I saw the Northern area code telephone number .....

Customer: Er, you on the way, ah?
Me: Yep, why? (I know the bad feeling)
Customer: Er, the phones all up again la.
Me: So, you want me to turn back, right?
Custormer: No la, you still need to come because of the credit cards la.
Me: OK, be there as soon as I can.

Stopped by the Sg. Perak R&R. It has undergone
a huge renovation last year. Now, I am not sure
what the design represents. Nothing Malaysian.

Since I was in a rush, I only
noticed the only way in (up)
was through the escalators.
If this is the case, this is bad

I like the way they used natural light as this would
save a lot of energy. But come rain..........


The fruit stalls are still here but I did not look
around much.

The children playground was quite nicely done but
after a second look, it felt as it its a bit too cramped.
And children are going to knock into each other or
other people or worse, the equipment itself if they
start to run around in such a small space.

OK, they also have the pond/water thing so that you
can sit there and contemplate the meaning of this
sick joke of a design.


Since I cannot show you the system or the customer's
place, you'd just have to be content with a random pic

The cause of the problem? I already
know the answer as when I was on
the way to the Phone system, I saw
this door opened. Put two and two
together, you'd also know the "WHY"
But if you do not know the "WHY",
it does not matter, less dead brain
cells for you.

Later in the evening, Loctor and I had dinner at
Jusco. For RM998.00 this aquarium is a very nice
idea. Too bad I cannot have it as the girls are still
too young and they might dump a lot of things in
there.


Forgot what it was but its some ice-coffee.
But man, I tell you, it has some very thick
cocoa in there. Which is quite nice, really.
At the bottom right, is my batang for him
to Wii about.

The rice is quite nice too. I ordered stuffed egg something
and the rice, sadly, has to be ordered separately. Still, I
like the way it was presented. "Yat Kau Fan"........ha ha ha

And so, after not seeing Loctor for months, it was time
to go back to the hustle and bustle of Kay El.

Still, this is my first time to get the 10% discount from
PLUS as I crossed the toll gate eight minutes after 12
midnight (had to stop at some R&R for some nap)
