(Hmm... talk about kicking a man when he is down, eh?) Also, the timings for the 2 photos are the same because I took both photos at the same time mah, i.e. I took a photo of my feet after I have reached the shoe stall. Aiyah, must I explain everything?<br /><br />YG - I guess it is good to bring along spare trekking shoes even for mountain climbing.<br /><br />Fr - The strap came off suddenly and not gradually. No way could a regular inspection programme prevent such a incident from happening... once every 50 years. Haha.<br /><br />Icemoon - The quiz would have been too easy. How big is Marine Parade Central? I use the word "wilderness" somewhat sarcastically. So you think that $4.90 is a fair price to pay for the trendy slippers? Want to buy my used pair at 10% discount?<br /><br />Chun See - Ah, you know me too well.Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10339178864363140977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13303109.post-35842050951303621342010-06-29T22:44:37.051+08:002010-06-29T22:44:37.051+08:00I was stranded somewhere in wilderness of Marine P...<i>I was stranded somewhere in wilderness of Marine Parade Central ....</i><br /><br />Victor can have a quiz.
