Handle Bar

I checked out some of the jigsaw puzzles at Bugis yesterday. Generally, all can be categorised into few series: (i) Winnie the Pooh, (ii) Mickey Mouse, (iii) Snoopy and Woodstock, and others including glow-in-the-dark night scenes or nature shots. I asked WW to choose one from the three categories, but he thought all of them are very kiddish coz they are of cartoon characters. He even made me pay ½ his yearly road tax (jokingly) for choosing such childish stuff. Heh, but jigsaws pictures look better than cartoon ones, with all those gradient colours and beautiful concepts. Now, which size should I get? 1000, 2000 or 4000 pieces?

We dropped by a bar – Handle Bar – later in the night. Located at an obscure place at Lock Road (very near Gillman’s Village), it was a pub unlike the usual. It’s frequented by ang mohs and serious bikers, some of them really gung-ho kinds with long ponytails wearing thick black leather vests. WW and I were one of the few locals around, but we kept to ourselves enjoying our Hoegaarden and Heinekein. The deco in the open-air bar represents that of a Cow-Boy bar with hanging t-shirts, lots of small posters or sign-boards and a pool-table at the middle. The best part is no smoke and no loud music.

It’s nice go chill out at a quiet bar and chatting away on our beers, even though I managed only 20% of my mug. Hee.
