Sunny island in the sea
So apparently I'm back home. It's been a weird and wonderful experience having to readjust back to 90% humidity and an average "cool" temperature of 24 degrees..... at night! But it's not much cooler back in London anyways.
Been trying to stuff my face with as much food as I can in the 3 1/2 weeks back here. The tally so far is:
So far
2x black pepper crabs
guo tie (fried dumplings)
weird macau food (Crystal Jade Macau Cafe at Bugis)
Hakka Yong Tau Fu (thx HL)
Jln Kayu Prata (overrated)
Cai Tau Kuay (fried carrot cake)
Manhill rest. (don't ask, I don't get it either)

F1 bureaucratic stupidity
The whole stupid fiasco about 14 cars boycotting the race was probably the most ridiculous thing to have landed on the lap of motor racing in its entire history. For a fan like myself, I felt let down and frustrated at the politicking of ferrari team and the inability of the management teams to come to a compromise. This is one of those occations where the money has destroyed the spirit of a sport. Was it so damn difficult to install a chicane just so that everyone could enjoy a good race?
"It's a disaster for Formula One in the States," said Williams' Nick Heidfeld.
They've forgotten that at the end of the day, it's the fans that make a sport happen. It's very clear today that they have completely lost the true meaning of sportsmanship. I just hope that this will serve as a wake up call, and one day, the F1 management will start to see the big picture once again.
