Update #1 : Our niece, YL, had a successful ops ( Entry dated 110908) & is now on road to recovery. Congrats, YL!! Have a swift recovery...

Update #2 : Re Emergency Lamp replacement, a similar, but appeared to be a better system type ie with an overcharging protection circuit by the same company, was found to be offered at Tesco here for RM85. That's way higher than what me had paid for the present "faulty" unit! If me remember correctly, it was only abt RM60...
Oh well, let's check out the price of that unit offered by other electrical outlets in town. A decision will be made then. No urgency as present "faulty" unit is still able to function...although not 100%.

Need to keep fingers crossed that there'd be NO power failure in the meantime...hehe...not a long failure session, anyway!

Update #3 : Received an invite for a "Nasi Lemak" dinner do at a former colleague's place, just at the end of our block while we were at Tesco shopping around for the emergency lamp. Turned out to be a small celebration of her daughter's 13th Bday. Food was great. Not just "Nasi Lemak lo..." Lots of choices including home-made chocolate "cookies"...yum yum, my fav kind!!

Today : 12 Sep is the Bday of our fav cousin, KS. As mentioned in my post yesterday, we'll be making a sp trip for a dual celebration of sorts. Until then, this morning, a sp personal call was made to wish our Bday girl a very Happy Bday!! So, Happy Bday, KS!! Have a nice day today... we'll see you on the 19th, ok?

Also made a call to MBB to make a request for the Annual Fee waiver for my credit cards. A nuisance really. Most banks are already issuing "No Annual Fee" cards. However, at such lean times, any $$ that can be saved will certainly go a long way in one's budget. Agreed? In my case, it amounts to abt RM200...which is no small sum, right? With that settled, I was also told that it is possible to request to be emplaced with an auto-waiver facility but I need to write in officially for that. An email would suffice. No prob, right?

Now back to the usual routine of a normal Friday, another day in Lot 10...
