Second post for today

I decided that I will not go for a run today. Looking at the air quality, I reckon that it would be more advisable to remain indoors. When I got up this morning, I saw on CNA (Channel News Asia) that the PSI hit 130 which is in the unhealthy range. Subsequently, the NEA issued an adivsory not to have vigourious outdoor activities for today. However, we are considered fortunate compared to our neighbours in M'sia and Indo. The air quality up north and across the Straits is much worse.

We went to Harvey Norman earlier to purhcase a hot water airpot (something to store and boil hot water) as our previous one leaked. That one only lasted 1.5yrs! Hopefully this one will serve us longer. It has got some pretty cool functions such as reduced chlorine and power saving etc etc....but it cost $1xx/- after discount. Well, we needed one and since it would be helpful when our little one comes along, there is a 60 deg C function which would serve pretty handy.

I managed to catch the Japanese GP qualifying earlier. As usual, the scarlet cars were the benchmark for today's pace. In fact, it seems to me that the cars running on Bridgestones appear to be more superior compared to the Michelin shod ones. P1 to 4 (grid position) are all Bridgestone shod while the Renaults only managed fifth and sixth respectively. McClaren? Not even in the top 10. It appears that the McClaren team powered by Merc are way off the mark compared to the Ferarris and Renaults. I will not be able to catch the start of the race tomorrow as I can only be home at 2.30pm. But at least I can still get to see the chequered flag. So who will be on the top step of the podium tomorrow? It all comes down to the 90 minutes and how the weather will be.
