Used Auto

Back home in Singapore.. Used Cars weren’t that popular even though cars were very expensive. I have no idea why but i am guessing is the Asian mentality that used things may not be as good or they may break down. Most friends that i know wouldn’t even consider a used car.

And the strangest thing here in Canada is .. everyone is into used cars, my father-in-law buys used autos all the time. I guess the men here are really handy .. and they know exactly what to look out for when buying a used auto..?? I have no problems buying a used auto now.. and with some help, reviews and a brother-in-law to check on the used auto, I’m all game.

A complete resource for buying used autos, Auto Guide has the most comprehensive listing of used autos. It’s the most useful and flexible way to find your ideal auto. As a buyer, we all know how worried we get when spending so much money on a vehicle, but now with Auto Guide you can narrow down your search and get more results with a few clicks. With photos of the featured auto included and a review to help folks like you and me to find the best in the market, plus it’s so easy to make your search either by model or the make of the auto you are interested in.

Buying used auto is hassle free, no harassment from used car salesman .. and you can save thousands too.. if you choose wisely. I’m very much into used autos now, the notion of used autos are not as good is no longer in my vocabulary.

No Rest

We will not be getting any rest day for this Saturday because Keegan is going to visit her b/f in another town. As you all know.. her b/f is away.. for school. It is quite taxing .. with Keegan gone.. but she had babysat another day for us during the week to make up for going away this weekend… but we still won’t be able to shop on a Saturday.. like we have had planned.. because we need to work full day.. like any normal day.

So if i donch get to blog hop this weekend, you’ll know why. And I really hope Kate have a good time. I know she is so looking forward to see her b/f even though .. he was back only a few weeks ago. Well.. you know when you are in love.. all else donch matter.. and you just want the time to stand still eh..??

Loonie closes above parity

The US dollar continues to fall against the major world currencies.. and the Canadian dollar continued to raise above parity. Event the tourist we had today at our store .. was asking for our quarter to exchange to bring home. This is really strange.. because when I first came to Canada.. i remember the Americans being very indignant.. about getting their American dollars for change .. for anything they bought.

Strange as it is.. but i get a feeling that the Americans coming across this is year are way better than we’ve come across .. the last few years. I wonder if it has anything to do with the greenbacks..??

Teak Furniture

I love teak furniture, i heard from my grandma that when one buys teak furniture, you don’t have to worry that might rot no matter what the weather condition is because teak furnitures are considered gold standard. Nothing resists better than natural teak. Not only is teak furniture beautiful it is also the most robust outdoor furniture that one can buy.

Teak Chairs are the most commonly bought by my family and I. We love it because there is absolutely no maintenance require for a teak chair. My grandmother has teak furniture left outdoors for almost a century and none of them has rot. One of the reasons that teak is so weather-resistant is that it has a natural rubber content and a high oil content sort of a built-in natural water repellent. Even better, exposure to the sun actually activates the natural oils. Teak furnitures are also easy to mix and match with your leather ones for indoor use.

If you are thinking of buying some, now is the best time to do it because there is a sale on. Don’t you miss the sale now..!

Halo Hype

So what’s all the hype.. you ask me..?? being a store that sells Halo 3 or any new games that the market has to offer…. i really can’t tell. But Halo 3 is the all time money making champion in entertainment history. Up to $170 million.. in entertainment budget in the first 24hrs after release. Fan frenzy was cited but not much about the game itself..?? Hype is another part of it and it really didn’t suck big time.

Tourism AGAIN..!

I write things close to my heart.. because it affects the business alot. It also affects if we are going to continue to stay in Yarmouth, and invest in this town. This morning on local news.. they wrote a small piece about the Provincial tourism official getting a earful last nite. But what is their action plan.. besides changing the stupid name on the brochure..?? (like it would ever helped..???!!??)

Business has been hurting downtown.. big time.. with Walmart and the expansion of Superstore and some other various specialty stores that sprung up on us.. during the last few years. Even we were not spared.. with Movie Gallery trying very hard to undercut us.. downtown merchants.

My question is ONLY ONE.. ! What is the action plan here..?? No more HOT AIR please..!

Falling In Love With Britain

The British Rocks..!! I chose to study in Glasgow.. because I met a wonderful Englishman from Plymouth, UK. No don’t be silly, he isn’t my boyfriend, he is a much older gentleman, married with a few children and a few dogs. Someone who had stayed in the hotel i worked in during a school holiday many years ago, and he was a little hard at hearing, so he needed special attention.

Of course I love London most because it’s has got one of the biggest chinatown in UK. Hotels in London are aplenty. And if you are planning a vacation in UK, depending on your budget, you can definitely find great hotels at an affordable budget. When we were much younger.. we didn’t have all the money nor spending power, so while traveling around UK after finishing my studies, we chose a few places that we much see. Hotels in Manchester and Hotels in Birmingham were booked promptly because these are the places we had to see.

But we didn’t want to stay in those back pack hostel because we wanted to be safe… and most importantly have our own bath, instead of sharing. So a few of us, made reservations and shared a room instead. And since Birmingham is just in between Manchester and London, we just have had to go there too. But we chose the bed and breakfast, because we’ve never experienced that before. It was very affordable and very homely i must say. So whatever your budget maybe, planning is very important when you visit Britian. And it can rock your world.. if you have all your itinerary planned. Happy Holidays..!

Geez..!! It’s the Doctor’s Turn

As if they donch make enough..??!!!?? Now the doctors here in Nova Scotia.. wants more money or go on strike too..??? Local news reported that rural intensive care units in Nova Scotia may be without doctors for the next week or so. Until the doctors get a better deal with the provincial department..!!

I donch understand this..! i know the doctors are paid good here.. and just to entice them to come to Nova Scotia.. they have so many packages.. for them.. and their family. And you would think that morally the doctors wouldn’t go on strike right..??
