20260226! FOund the Leak!m?Seal ! CLosure!

 LEAking Woes! How does one find the leaking area?

By hearing the bubbling sound! Just like a stethoscope!

The water bill was high since Oct 2025 

And we wonder why?

Finally called for a specialist leakage contractor!

They came and they “Hear”

We found the leak at last !

Now is to close it up!

Reflections:-

Something happened this morning  

Was feeling a little disappointed 😔 

Perhaps the Leaking contractor who came during this time did bring a closure of comfort to me  

It is a time to Move On  

To be more discrete in messaging in Group chats cos we really do not know how the rest of the group members may react even though it can be a close knitted chat group  

The world is getting more UNKIND? 

Some people fail to be more diplomatic in replies in a group chat setting  More difficult to agree to disagree in a kinder tone   That sense of condescending tone  and use of words  Ouch   🤕 Hurts bad eh!

So I have learnt  The hard way  

There is no such thing as a safe haven even in a close knitted chat group  Unfortunately  I was naive  perhaps  

But good to learn to move on  

The learning journey on this earthly pilgrimage  

Be oneself  be True be honest  

the better Be- attitudes to remember!

Shenzhen Memories !

20260123 Zhuhai day Trip!

 

Left Macau for Zhuhai and Shenzhen !

1. Shocking to see that we were the only 4 humans at the land crossing to Zhuhai from Macau! So quiet!!!!

2. ⁠Saw the 40km HK-Zhuhai long above sea bridge as we cabbed from Macau to ZH. 

3. ⁠Spent half a day at Zhuhai to look see:) Their Moon Oyster Opera theatre was quite a sight. BIG. There was a heli ride for 3 min @ about S$75 for an aerial view of this. Their New Summer replica palace was so so. “Donated” rm10 for a name poem which was quite chim ! 😂 his job at stake now with AI!

4. ⁠The SZ bridge was quite a new one. Construction started 2016. But only opened in 2024! Upon approaching the Sz , had to go under for 5km as the sea route cos the sea route required for passing ships etc. Really helped to cut the timing from ZH to SZ to less than 1 hour 20 min!

5. ⁠Went to Wanxiang QianHai mall and saw so many beautiful cats! Fat furry. Chubby. ! cat petting for RM38 an hour! More than 100 cats in the arena! Gorgeous furry fellows. Almost wanted to have a pet too! But too late after dinner last nite ! 😂
