When Lightning Strikes!

Raymond sent me these photos taken recently in the compound of Ngee Ann Polytechnic campus in Singapore. These photos show the condition of a tree (not sure what species) that had been struck by lightning recently....... AND SURVIVED !!

According to eye-witnesses, the lightning bolt wrapped herself round the tree, leaving behind deep laceration marks on the tree trunk from top to bottom, but not spiltting it nor killing it!

A wonderful example of what Mother Nature is capable of !

Raymond's New Wheels!

Raymond, my twins (bet some of you do not know I actually have an identical twin brother, do you?) who resides and works in Singapore, recently bought a new car. It's a NISSAN SYLPHY (BLUEBIRD) 1.5 Auto Silver. It costs him S$61,000 OTR and comes with Intelligent Key System!

Beauty, isn't it? Looking forward to ride in the car this coming Chinese New Year which falls on 18 February 2007 when all of us will congregate at dear Mum's place to celebrate the joyous occasion together. Can't wait!
