Updates!!!
Hotel chosen : Ibis Bangkok Siam
Flight Details
26/03 SIN – BKK Scoot608 Depart 0700 Arriving 0830
29/03 BKK – SIN Scoot605 Depart 1455 Arriving 1820

Cost (Flight & Hotel) : $372.15/pax 
a) Based on twin sharing @ Ibis Hotel.  For 1 single, the cost is estimated at $496/pax.
b) Handcarry bag (7kg) only
c) 15kg Baggage, extra charge of $54 for both ways
d) Departing on the next morning timing, will be incurring another $17 extra/pax
e) You will need to get travel insurance individually which we can map out later

Both Pattiya and I are planning a F&E Bangkok Trip from March 26 – 29 2023. This trip will be done solely on own timing/agenda as well as going thru obstacles with public transport – BTS and MRT, buses and others.

Maximum to go : 16 fully paid members (inclusive of Pattiya and myself), we still go ahead even we dont have 16 members.

POIs intended to adventure are as follows:

1. Iconsiam- White Orchard River Cruise – Dinner Cruise
2. Leng Saap Restaurant – Strongly recommended by Pattiya for their speciality – Pork Ribs
3. Maeklong Railway Market (hope tht I got this place right) – interesting place whereby both train and market peddlars are using the same location giving way to each other whenever needed.  A POI that definitely a go.
4. As for night market, as there are too many locations these days so we will choose 1 once we confirmed the hotel that we intended to stay
5. Not forgetting spa and massages to look out for too.
6. For those interested for shopping – maybe can try if 1 can get Korean Hanbo for the coming SHC D&D – Good suggestions right…
7. For those keen of cafe hunting for coffees and cakes, there will be no short of these too.
8. Last but not least, night spots to enjoy before we headed home

For 4D/3N, the above POIs will keep us very busy, I am sure.

I will be checking on the airfare/hotel packages thru travel agent first as the last check for online booking for both airfare/hotels will be around $330/pax based on the twin sharing.  My personal preference will be if Travel Agent’s quote is only less more that $50+, we will go for travel agent’s arrangement.  Of course, I am not stopping those to go direct to book online but on 1 clause, try to get the same hotel to save time

I would also like to advise for those going for this trip that have not taken 4th jab, to go for flu jab for protection.

Members going:
1) Pattiya
2) Dolly Lim
3) Alan Ang
4) Cheng WK
5) Terry Chun
6) Lim HP

From time to time, I like to introduce members of the club, so we get to know them better. Jasmine jpined SHC in 2021.

JasmineW
Professionally, Jasmine plays the roles of both a Real Estate Agent and a Tourist Guide. Both professions are closely related – she conducts relocation tours to help visitors become familiar with Singapore, focusing on helping potential migrants orientate and settle down.

She handles tours like HDB Heartland Tour, Urban Planning Tour, Chinatown Historic District Tour and Rediscover Marina Bay Tour all serve to give visitors an appreciation of the essence of living in Singapore.

Pastime, she loves playing harmonica and doing craft.

Jasmine used to run a 24 hour internet cafe and an art & craft retail outlet in different locations. She has since given up on all the brick and mortar stores and operate only an online art & craft store.

She also enjoys a variety of activities on a weekly basis, e.g. walking, swimming and cycling. Likes making new friends and enjoy interesting conversations sharing life experiences. These different businesses, activities and people make her life, a colourful mould.

Jasmine volunteers in a number of Silverhairsclub activities.

Queen Elizabeth II has passed away. A Queen whom many of us know during our lifetime.

Some of us have been “to London to see the Queen”. And  I think everyone of us have memories of the Queen.

There will be no more Queen who has lived this long.  Lets share our memories of Queen Elizabeth II. When have you seen her?

Hello Fellow SHC members old n new,

My name is Leon and have been a SHC member for more than 10 years. The purpose of my posting today is to bring to your awareness of a nation wide campaign of a collaboration between Abbott Laboratories and Diabetes Association Singapore. I am one of the appointed ambassador/promoter of this campaign. This campaign is also announced in CNA news 2 weeks ago.

https://cnalifestyle.channelnewsasia.com/wellness/diabetes-blood-sugar-levels-wearable-glucose-monitor-no-prick-326531?cid=internal_sharetool_androidphone_31082022_cna .

They are introducing a revolutionary CGM ( Continuous Glucose Monitoring)program with a medical sensor that no longer required blood sampling and is painless. The first step to manage diabetes is is to monitor your blood glucose level and then manage it with diet and medication. Many diabetic person don’t do the blood sampling testing for fear of the needles and the hassle. In fact I observe many patient take a indifferent attitude towards their diabetic condition. Currently doctors prescribe medications that need you to take after every meal. Medication have side effects. With this program, you can manage your diabetes with diet first and then medication if necessary. This device is given free to all diabetes patients during this campaign period upon successful registration.

I urge all suffering diabetic persons to take the opportunity to participate in the program. The link to register is in the article near to the end. Diabetes is sometimes called the Mother of all diseases with its linkage to a host of future medical problems (blindness, amputation, kidney failure,etc) if it is not managed well. The campaign is for a limited period only ending in October.

So please don’t hesitate or proscratinate. Submit your registration now.

Thank you for your attention.
