London Bridge vs Tower Bridge

Now that I am back in Singapore, I am going to slowly upload my photos of my trips into my blog. :)

On the first day of my London trip, I went to visit the well known London bridge in the nursery rhyme: "London Bridge is Falling Down". What I actually saw is the new London bridge as the original one had already been taken down. (See wiki post for more info)

Side View of London Bridge

The nicer looking bridge that you might had seen in various tv shows is actually the London Tower Bridge which has 2 main towers at the side. The bottom of the bridge can be opened when a big ship is passing through.

We didn't have the time and patience to wait for that to happen so here's the photo from Wikipedia. It does looks like at night it'll be a lot prettier.. Too bad we went in summer and at night means it's going to be at least 11pm or later to get this sort of view..

There's also an Navy Ship on display between the London Bridge and the Tower Bridge.

That's us posing with the prettier tower bridge

There's also "The London Bridge Experience" place near the London Bridge area. From the attire of the people giving out leaflets, I think it looks like some scary experience place which is under the category that I no longer feel like visiting.

Here's more photos on the tower bridge and in that area I took for your viewing :)

Backup!

Haha.. I spent most of the day creating recovery disk (1 set -- initial setting), install everything I want then create backup disk. Lol.. Yes I really need the backup... 'cos before I create the backup.. I actually configure until the DVD drive cannot use.. Such that ermm heng hor, Windows have restore point and I was constantly installing stuff.. haha.. So I'm not too sure what config went nuts 'cos I just restore and start again loh.. It's just day 2 nia.. I spoiled the software again lol.. Think maybe I should just not try to be too funny about my config ba.. Then I try to play the game, it seems like my pointer settings will affect the game play if I use pointer. A bit ma fan.. So maybe I should just use mouse for it ba. And something wrong about the map also.. I can see the floor.. yes.. But the pic of the mini and big map for one of the quest cannot be displayed. Now trying to find direct X to install. Hopefully it helps ba. At least most of the stuff is done le....

Free Antivirus Software

Just shared with one of my friends a few days ago that her computer is infected by some virus. And came to realised only yesterday that she's not the only one with unprotected computer. Then I'm wondering if it's just IT people that knows where to get free yet good antivirus software and install? Just to share with those that didn't know, AVG is really a very good yet free antivirus software. If you don't have one, it's best that you just download and install it so that your computer will be almost always virus free. At least most of the normal virus won't be able to disturb you :)

Monopoly Deal - A Fun Game to Play @ Chalets!

I felt that Monopoly Deal is really a fun and challenging game to play, especially at the Chalet. There are many rules to the game, but luckily we had a monopoly deal rules expert with us to double-click with in event of discrepancy! I feel that it requires strategy and some form of luck to win the game. So far, I always get good property cards sets but it always get taken away 'cos I don't have the "Just say NO" card and it tend to get taken away, especially if I've a complete set. Then, I tried the strategy of not putting up a complete set, then it also doesn't really work 'cos in the end, I don't end up putting my sets on the table. Perhaps, I'll need to play a lot more times and try different methods till I get the idea right I guess. If you do have the chance, try playing that game. It's really exciting, 'cos you'll never know how long will your properties stay with you! As well as, how much money you can have in your hands. T...
