The Sun Always Shines on TV

I never ever thought that I will one day own a Norwegian. Not even during those days when I had A-ha posters in my keeping.
But Izatul made it a reality.
A package from UK arrived last month, containing , among other cool stuff, this Scandinavian. It is rubber, just in case you are wondering.

Reaching the Sky

The skyscrapers are defuinitely reaching for the sky. Here are two "wooden" fridge magnets I bought at Pavilion recently. They are products of Arch, I think quite a number of people have heard of them. The magnets and the pictures they depicted are cut using laser, so I was told. That is why he precision can be obtained.

She Bakes Well

Bakewell is small market town in the Derbyshire Dales district of Derbyshire, England, deriving its name from 'Badeca's Well'. However, I must add that the lady who gave me this fridge magnets bakes really really well.

JR Ewing vs. Bobby Ewing

This one will take your breath away. So modern, yet represents the very culture of the state of Texas.

I still look at it in awe. Sometimes, I take it off the fridge door just to admire it in my hands.

Welcome To My Lair


The number is going up. I am, so very pleased!!

I had asked Ar Yusof to get me some fridge magnets during his trip to Uzbekistan. He got me 8 of them (see above). And below, GH gave me 3 (including the Korean couple ) and the rest is from Mrs Woods who resides in India.

Mrs Woods emailed me coz she was devastated since a Hard Rock Cafe Roma magnet which was supposed to be in the package meant for me is no where to be found. Nevertheless, I am so glad!




My sis Gee bought me all of the above during his work trip to Jakarta a week before our brother's wedding.
Below, is a pleasant surprise. In my excitement in collecting, I totally forgot that my cousin Abang Chik is studying engineering in Sydney. So when Mak Uda Leha told me Abang Chik bought me fridge magnets, I almost jumped for joy.

Admittedly, I gave ONE to Mak. So stingy, kan? Anyways, in an effort not to appear to be stingy, (tho I am one, when it comes to my collection), I bought 2 real nice ones at the Singapore Zoo for Mak; including a PVC magnet of Singapore showing some prominent landmarks.

Above is a picture of the magnettos I posted to UK for Izatul. It was a belated birthday surprise! Below, I parted with some of mine for GH.
