Twice a year, maybe thrice, I get to wear what the clothes were built for

She’s here! Last week must’ve been bare busy. Just wanna say a huge shout out to Graeme for getting this and the repair back quickly.

First stop IH Nagoya..

onwards to OGL/ Rugged Gentlemen Shoppe to pick up my red wings I sent off for resoling by Dr.Sole.

made use of the studio to take some photos of a jacket and of course, a fit pic.

@Matt hahaha it’s good to listen to the devil once in awhile..

@tody its still there but it isn’t as obvious as before given the darkening of the leather through aging

@DrPat i can’t seem to remember where that spot was, and I can’t find it on the jacket now. So I’m probably gonna say it’s disappeared..

Took a photo before I left while waiting for it to get pimped

just had this oiled a couple weeks ago..

well I hope there's something to show. not much going on at the moment. daily ride to work takes the first snapshot of this leg..

@mclaincausey yeah this was when I thought I was still riding my motorcycle on track, until I realise this was an F1 race..

just over a year.. started this either late 2023 or early 2024..

The Singapore motor show is on this weekend. it's also been raining non-stop since friday morning, not even intermittent showers, not stop pouring through the night! I have not seen the sun since friday.

with that said, I think everyone should know by now how expensive cars is in Singapore. lots of deal to be had at the motor show but it's crazy to think about when a civic or corolla costs about USD130,000.

for those that don't understand, the price consists of:

Original manufacturers Value (OMV)
Tiered Additional registration fee (140% to 320%) on top on the OMV
Certificate of Entitlement COE (the right to own a road going car)bid based system, at which it currently stands between USD60k to 90k for a piece of paper
Import taxes and GST
Dealer Margin (est to be about 30k per car they sell)

oh and also a fit pic..

Went to hachioji but apparently I missed him by 15mins and he just left for home

Here we go. The TROPICAL leg of this tour..

Just want to give a shout out to @Cutlasshound for this beautiful gift. And to do it honours, I’ll use my childish side..

with the Lunar New Year just gone by, life has been hectic.

The Food

Ever since I've moved back, I've been helping my grandparents, these past couple years only my grandfather, with the food prep needed. Also learning to dissect and fillet a fish. We use Pomfret, a fish generally found in South Asia. the small ones are the every day fish. The bigger ones have to be pre ordered for special occasions. This one here is about 1.5 to 2kgs which we use 4 over 2 days for about 20 people

NgohHiang translated to fried meat rolls. a staple at our new year dinner. Basically, minced meat, prawns, egg, water chestnuts and crispy dried flat fish are mixed, then wrapped in beancurd skin to be steamed and then deep fried.

Traditionally, most people have steam boats. Yonks ago when I was a kid, we used charcoal steamboats. As the elders got old and time gone by, most people have electric ones with some kind of hot plate for BBQ. Food is prepared and you cook them in pork bone stock. Dishes consist of meat, fish, seafood and whatever you can think of. The soup at the end usually ends up sweet and delicious with all the food being cooked through it.

Not too mention snacks, for nibbling while your relatives gossip about their lives over the past year. This little bake cheese snack being one of my fav.

Bonus question why did the chicken cross the road?
I was very close to ending a generation..

@goosehd wow the sleeves looks very well molded to you body after the wash!! Love the “arm honeycombs”

Took it out first day for me, sleeves are definitely longer than the pale rider. Overall too.

Suns out. Buns out.. ️
