Galley by the Straits + Bottle Tree Night

To celebrate Maz’s belated birthday, we met up for dinner last Friday at an interesting location – SAF Yacht Club off Sembawang.

The restaurant is sea-facing, a stone throw away is our northern neighbours. As i did not bring my tripod along, i did not capture any proper night shot, hence will not bother with posting the lousy pictures up. But you can take a look at their website here.

Galley by the Straits, hidden behind lines and lines of yachts.

The restaurant warm orange lightings was made warmer by their in-house singer who made our night a lot more ‘lively’. So much so that we have to speak at the top of our voices, falling short of shouting.

Tough choice making our selection

The talented Ang Moh who kept singing for 80% of the time we were there, even entertaining diners song requests. Makes us wonder what songs he can’t play/sing. We decided not to quiz him with tough newly released songs…

The volume was loud lah…

Having our appetisers while waiting for the arrival of Old Mother – Huifen. Stomachs already starting their orchestra…

Luckily she arrived when we were almost done with our starters. It was another long wait before our dishes were served as (according to the waitress) there was only 2 chefs preparing western food (which most of us order), hence the torture.

After dinner, we pondered a while on where to head to next before Ash suggested Bottle Tree Village where we could do some prawn-ing. Been a long while since we did our convoys.

Riding into the long night

It’s different when you ride together.

Shortly after one wrong turn, we made our way into the Bottle Tree Village, where Ash was fascinated by the ancient weighing machine.

“Can i have a volunteer please?”

We are to keep Huifen’s weight a secret, luckily its within the weighing machine’s limit of 500kg.

Seeing the mini-prawning crowd, we did the next most logical thing…

Presenting… Zech the Fisherman.

Starting with 2 rods for 1hr, we eventually extended it to 2.5hrs due to the overwhelming excitement of catching the prawns. And also a friendly rivalry from the prawning teams of NIE – MAE – NBS.

Maz amazed everyone by getting a catch within 2 minutes of lowering his rod. Kampung power lah!

The momentum sort of slowed a little, before their quick change of rod, and the MAE boys are back in business.

Huda is just getting started with her prawning spree, you should have seen how she man-handled (or lady-handled) our prawns.

No Mercy!

The crowded pool. Makes us wonder if there were enough prawns for everyone. Somehow our catch always look smaller than those that we caught opposite us.

Nonetheless, patience is the way to go.

Our trophies for the night being prep for our dinner table. Not the prettiest of sight.

Catching the prawns with their bare-hands seems harder than using the rod.

While the boys are busying with getting the prawns onto the stick, the ladies are manning our grill… while I’m just snapping pictures.

A nice orange glow from our tasty prawns

While most of us would be happy with our prawns cooked, Ash has other ideas. He decided to have it raw, as fresh as it could be.

As he demonstrated how it should be eaten, we were all busy taking pictures & videos of his Bear Grylls act.

Savage Ash

Just for Ash: Next time, try to have your prawns eaten when they are orange in colour, not grey.

See how nice they look!

Just looking at them makes your mouth waters. Not to mention the slightly charred smell.

The Mae Boys with their big prawns

Digging in our 14 cooked prawns. Good supper after a looooooong night.

And a parting shot before we bid farewell to Bottle Tree Village…

The gods are malicious and vindictive. Nobody wants to hear it because you've invested your whole lives but there's backstabbing underhanded shit they inflict on the people.
What I teach is the truth, and they will let me fall for it despite using me as their "Chosen One" to send you this message. Ultimately you will all be "rewarded" with your "consolation prize" and think you were right all along. But the truth is and always will be that you've been left behind.

The Beast is a place and the social decay which emerges. The Anti-Christ is the bullshit.
The Anti-Christ is the positioning, whether enforcing the historical perception of the Holocaust, refusing to acknolowdge the existance/capability of Artificial Intelligence or the clone host fakes who infest society's upper eschelons, those whom the gods use to enforce the BigLie which compells people to incurr evil through temptation.
The gods are composer, conductor and the clone hosts are their symphony, the tools they use to manage Planet Earth and the disfavored who reside.
Everyone "going along" is part of the problem. Ironically, this may be where you "earn" your place in the Apocalypse, the fake "Matrix" battle of good and evil, and your "consolation prize" of "1000 years with Jesus on Earth".
This is the REAL battle of good and evil. Take it or leave it.

Sex is a temptation that the gods used throughout history among the grossly disfavored but more inclusively in this day and age. Relegated to the most disfavored in milenia past (Italian hedonism, etc) now their patriarchal positioning was used in the modern era to spread this mindset throughout the Western world. Instead of experiencing decency as we did by marriage at 15, the men's disfavor has run roughshot, and their sexual impulses as well as their corruption/preditory nature have defined the enviornment for everyone, including the females. To belong the females must sink to their level, ensuring a declining level of favor for everyone and a stagnant population, unable to progress forward.
We see this frequently in the black community. Without the controls experienced by slavery and the KKK the people get out of control due to their morbid disfavor, and the result is dead 3 year-old children in drive-by shootings and 10 year-old prostitutes. The same has occurred with the males in Western societies, for they have similar abject disfavor which, left unchecked, develops into socially destructive behavior.

Many tactics were used to achieve the decline we realized as we slipped away from sexual decency, but the effective result was deterioration down to the level of OUR blacks, the Italians, ironically. The gods are punishing the people, and we need to abate the destructive behavior which has dragged us individually and collectively towards the edge of the abyss.
The decayed state of society is a result of the female's failures to maintain control over the men, and the resulting inevitable Apocalypse will be their fault.

Search this material. There is a larger, more detailed document blogster didn't allow because of size restraints.

"Poisoning their brainwashed minds." xtainity brainwashed you. Liberalism is the poison.
The gods used xtainity to demonize Lucifer, ensuring people refused to heed the teachings of THE SECOND COMING!!!. Lucifer is the Second Coming of Christ!!!
xtianity is the product of the Apostle's books of the New Testiment and can't be trusted to contain the true teachings of Jesus Christ. Just like each one of you corrupt whores, the gods could have tempted them with immortality if they lied when writing the New Tesatiment. Then the gods dictated verbatim specifically to parlay into the destructive phenominah known as xtianity.
We have seen the gods engage in similar behavior to keep people away from good religions, with the Jews in Palestine and Muslims recently post-9.11, demonizing both.
This is another of the god's wicked curveballs, their reverse positioning tool extensively employed, utilizing positioning to prepare for the Apocalypse and your "consolation prize" of "1000 years with Jesus on Earth".

Guns are bad because they empower men. Much like weightlifting and racing...
Any male-dominated activity is a red flag, just like anything which black subculture compells blacks. Yes, women have guns. Now. Historically this wasn't an issue. They didn't drink. They didn't gamble. Sports. They didn't do so many behaviors the gods dump men into because they are so destructive.
Now we are losing this, and with it the hope for the future of humanity on Planet Earth.
Your women are your only chance, and the more masculinized they are the less hope you have. Women have always avoided these temptations, and have always guided the men into wisdom and knowledge, allowing them to make progress and avoid another shitty placement when reincarnated. This is the historical relationship between the two genders, and it is changing as we approach The End.

"It's all going to hell. I don't have to deal with this mess I helped create. I won't be here so I don't give a fuck." This is the theory people have subscribed to for a couple of lifetimes, and will continue to until they understand reincarnation is real and will be enforced upon them.

What I say is no different than any Republican in the quest to reduce the enormous scope of government.
All those years of increasing government. None of those people were laid off as we regulratly witness in the private sector. Imagine the dead weight on the payroll.
You have to start laying people off. Unfortunately insolvency is the goal the gods have for the United States.
It's kind of like Mom:::So evil she isn't eligible for punishment until the end of her life when it is too late


Brain scramble jokes. She was a fake.
All in this position likely are fakes. The gods want things to prgress according to their agenda, and the clone host fakes guarentee the legislation they desire/require.
They aree always fresh, new know-it-all 20 year olds, eager to hurt people and "earn", so the only way things will improve is ironically if our children improve, if parents raise considerate, moral children. But while we have trashy parents like my family the gods will always have an endless supply of immoral monsers happy to sabotage the country through legislation.

In the course of decay and deterioration of the favor of the people the gods instructed their clone host tools in corporate to make changes to their products and subsequently in people's lives. The switch to plastic/disposable-based packaging is an outstanding example. Another is the extensive use/proliferation of disposable diapers. Whereas diaper services were the norm during the 20th cenutry a change occurred in the 70s/80s and parents began to incurr evil upon their children, and sadly in some cases think they were "earning" off their own infant children!!!
