FM 560 : Holland Toy Shop

2011

I have several similar fridge magnets but the similarily stops at the shape of the magnet. Often such item depicts a sex shop or prostitute biz but not this one.

 


Thanks so much Mimi. I hope you have more trips in future.

FM 557 - 559 : Elephants of Krabi

March 2011

I bought these cute shiny elephants at one of the shops selling pretty ornaments (read: stuff you don't need) by the Aonang Beach.

It is quite unfortunate that they are not that cheap but well, I can be greedy and want to buy a lot of things in bulk, especially if they are cute.

 

I bought them in a set of five and I am keeping them in this set. Let's call it a triplet :)


Krabi has wonderful beaches, especially if one goes island hopping. The water, the sky, the greens. It made you drop your jaw most of the time.

FM 556 : Verona - Romeo & Juliet

One more prezzie from Mimi!! I believe it depicts the time when Romeo climbed up to Juliet's room. Something romantoc with a touch of nastiness. Haha



If you do not know, William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet was based in Verona. One of Shakespeare's early comedies was titled The Two Gentlemen of Verona.

FM 545: Holland

2011

This is one of the fridge magnets I received from Mimi Hafiza, one of the major contributors to my collection. One of the friends I am blessed with.

She and her family went to Holland for a holiday and I, as usual, stand to reap the benefit.


She sent this to me together with the first Longchamp bag I bought from her but I only received it from Onnair with the delivery of the second Longchamp bag. It was worth the wait.

FM 537: Anstruther

May 2011

From a small village in the east coast of Scotland (in Fife), where fish and chips are so famous (so it claims, I have yet to sample it), comes this little fridge magnet.

In case you can't see it, it says "Welsh slate 500 million years old, Hand-split by specilaist craftsmen"




I am just glad it is mine! Thanks again, Nik Yurni.

FM 536: Wollaton Hall

May 2011

BNik Yurni bought me this fridge magnet and passed it (allong with other "bits and bobs" - her words, not mine) to me through Nik Dy.



Wollaton House is a country house standing on a small but prominent hill in Wollaton, Nottingham, England.
Just in her backyard, I suppose. Not sure if I will ever go there but suffice for the time being, some momentos from that place :)

Thanks Doodlemom, it is always a pleasure to get these things from you.

FM 528 - 530: USS Crazy Rides

30 May 2011

We went to Universal Studios Singapore for the very first time on Monday 30 May 2011. It was quite a good trip. Kinda warm. OK, hot, actually. But more importantly, it was not raining. That'll spoil our day but no, it was warm. Hot, I mean.

One of favourite rides was Revenge of the Mummy. We went on it twice. And later, I shopped for some new fridge magnets. 

 

Come to think of it, I have not taken the pics of the fridge magnets from USS which Izwan bought early last year, before the park was open to public. Oh well, let's be up to date and showcase the new ones:
