Knock, Knock, Who's there?

Mon 180711

Yup, It's none other than lil ole me! Just to let one & all know that me am still around...hehe...

However, these days me not feel up to it to sit & post. Various reasons. Sincere apologies...TQ!

A few short updates...

1. Made a one-day trip to Taiping recently (Sun 100711). First long distance maiden trip for our still "new" car as the farthest we've gone has only been to Penang. It was also a kinda "Go while me still can" trip! Haha! And, of course, the car was still "new"...3 months? And still is...!!

2. Our fav grandaughter, KL, has been enrolled in a Kindy recently...mainly to allow her to socialise & mix with other kids. A positive step forward.

3. Me finally managed to fit in a third party paper aircon filter, c/w the original mesh filter, for our still "new" ride. Air flow appears none the worse in spite of an additional finer filter layer.
Now ride occupants have really clean filtered air to breathe!!

4. An extra Engine Oil change was performed on our car @ about 3500Km ie midway between 2 Oil Changes in its service schedule. This has been my philosophy all the while for each of our new cars in the past. For better protection & improving longevity of the engine. It appeared to have positive results in the past. Moreover, I had a new 4L bottle of Castrol Magnatec 10W40 at hand. So...Tradition continues.

5. Accepted Astro's offer to upgrade to its new "Super Pack 3", namely Family+Dynasty+Emperor+Sports+Movies+3 Mini Packs(News, Learning & Variety) c/w PVR module with HDD & FOC recording services (normally RM10/mth), for only RM155/mth (excl 6% Govt Service Tax). For the PVR Module, a one-time installation charge of RM150 is payable. The main part is the package includes an upgrade to Beyond HD services & channels which normally would have cost an extra RM20/mth!

All that considered, there is a huge saving if one were to subscribe to those packages previously.

Well, installation was promised within 5 working days and activation of new services within 24 hrs. Now we wait...

Well, that's about it for now...

Until the next "Sit-in"....
