on the road again



service 405 operates only on days where there are demands for cemetery goers

i practically rode on a bus with no number today.
on the last leg of the journey, the driver of service 28, removed the number plate.
so yes, no one boarded. just alighted.

reason? cos the bus was behind time. thanks to 2 jams along the way.
its been 2 years since i rode on 28. so basically i didnt really know which part of Tampines it plied thru. so when it took me to the same place i been to yesterday, i was like dang it.
and apparently it plies thru hasif's area as well.
so much for me being a bus fan.

buses i boarded today: 985, 139, 28, 29, 2, 985, 172, 157, 985

985 - bb>jln toa payoh
139 - jln toa payoh>toa payoh
28 - toa payoh>tampines
29 - tampines>changi village
2 - changi village>geylang lor 1
985 - geylang lor 1>choa chu kang
172 - cck>boon lay
157- boon lay>bb
985 - bb>home

bus fan fyi: SBS 9455 M cameod on 28. originally a 74 permanent. V03x(volvo olympian 3-axled)

i spent the whole day to myself. saw some familiar faces and those familiar faces were pleased to see me too. that cheered me up.
12pm-9pm of bus riding.

"good that you're home early" dad said

whoa. so 9pm is early? im kinda confused.

i finally got it back from my bus freak friend... cant believe i gave it away for free... but to get it back wasnt easy i had to exchange it with another desto (aka destination plate) i had to trade this rare 97 temporary desto... he didn't force me for it, but i felt it was only nice to give something in return.... especially like in this case when i ask for this 185 desto back.. whats so special bout 185? three reasons.. 1) this bus is my childhood service...always took it 2) this service is no longer in existence... so imagine how rare the desto is 3) i ride on the improved version of this service almost daily Improved?? here, a lil explanation 185 (my era) from Choa Chu Kang to Jalan Anak Bukit (loop) 185 was handed over from SBS to TIBS in 1998 due to an agreement.. 185 merged with the newly introduced 989 to become 185 Choa Chu Kang to Jalan Anak Bukit (loop) 989 Choa Chu Kang to Changi Airport PTB 1 & 2 185 + 989 = 985 985 Choa Chu Kang to Geylang Lorong 1 so now, i freq

great. what's been up with me is this. as mentioned way too many time in the utmost gentle manner ever possible. i am done with my driver course. i belong to the early bunch who finished our TP. TP was special cos unlike the member of the public who did their TP test using civilian cars, we used out big lorries for the test. so whos test was tougher? u decide. we were supposed to get OFF. but today, tsk tsk, i ended up doing loads of cleaning. and so i guess tomorrow as well. til 9th march! transport supervisor course. back to route marches and field camp. after fieldcamp now without field camp and route marches plus loads of diabetes Milo from the canteen. and yes. looking back at pictures, i need field camp and route marches. getting fatter. tsk tsk. need gym badly. its been 3 weeks without the treadmill and weights. --------------------------- and my greatest camp companion apart from my PSP would be the books that accompanied me through the night. sleeping at past midnight just
