  Back again to my story of a child whose ah gong got hit by a kong (can) while they went out strolling, the child (hokkien speaking) ran to the nearest clinic to seek help, there was only an Indian doctor there

  Doctor asked: "Hello boy, what is happening"

  Child replied "Gong gong kong kong..kong ar tau gong gong"

  Park Royal on Scotts like to chase taxi out of their driveway. Peak hour not willing to do booking like Hyatt, Orchard Hotel, Marriott , so they send the doorman to catch fish along the main road.

  same as the one on Pickering, their flashing light is so inwards, who cares with your normal fare during peak hours when booking are plenty?

  You take advance, there is a stress to commit, you sweep, like me, can go one side and sleep also nobody give a fark.

  Therefore, it all depend on your health, your ability to take and level of committment. Taking too much advance can end up with heart problem hor, and knnccb, if no show, wha lau, ki ka lampard bigger than frank lampard head.

  I would said for oldies like me, advance is not my plate of food, more for those in their 40s or 30s

  Adv booking customers are usually nasty type. U dont ever be late, else they play badminton with u.

  also it breaks your routine as an hour before pick up, u need to interview pax towards your adv pick up location already. If not smooth, u just had to hit busy and fly straight to pick up... The journey cost and opportunity fare elsewhere is definitely better than the adv fee u can get

  Steering is in yr hands, it all depend on you, if think you want to Q, go ahead, some long Q can be clear by 1/2 an hour, some 1 hour still Q.

  Because TD must also jali makan, like bird, if there is food, all chiong, but there can be other food around the area, perhap not so tasty food, but still food mah, example Chennai business park, if you dun mind eating prata and tosai paxs, Changi north also got people, but mostly go into tampines
