Desserts:
seems like this junction between Tampines Street 45 and Avenue 9 is .... jinx!Chloecube, must be hard on you to have witnessed the accident. My heart is very painful just imagining the scenario. Couldn't sleep a few nights, can't imagine the mum s sorrow. The lady works at the macs near my place.
My dd s studying in Dunman sec and I warned her about crossing the road there. Few years back , a student was also involved in a bus accident, but ok now. -
funeral is today at 3.45pm, at 4.10pm will proceed to mandai. i managed to catch some sleep yestday nite after taking medicine, was sick since monday. i’m not a Christian , but i really hope the brothers are in heaven, in Jesus’s arm now.

My heart goes out to the family … but I would think that the family would like to have the space and privacy to grieve.
And I hope that all of us, be we pedestrians, cyclist, or motorist, remember those boys in our hearts, and slow down, look around and proceed cautiously when using the roads, and always remember to always give way to other people who are slower/ less protected/ more vulnerable than us. -
We don't need to share the same religion to pray for someone, to love someone, or even to mourn for someone. I am sure the Yap family has the whole nation praying with them, regardless of the colour of our skin, family status, religion or whether we know each other or not... I know I am mourning with her and praying with her.
We are bound by our hearts. By all the love in our hearts...
Chloecube, good to know you managed to get some rest. :hugs: -
Www:
Www,northernstar:
i saw in a post from a website that someone said not to buy bicycles for children when they are not matured enough to be left alone outside and i agree. if they are unable to take care of themselves, wearing helmet is of no use.
Why are they riding bicycles unsupervised?
:sad:
i'm also not sure why but i saw before some children are playing at playgrounds or in void decks without any adults or maids around. it seems that the parents are not at home or they are out by themselves. -
Who do we approach if we think there is a junction that is dangerous so need to put traffic lights? Town Council or LTA?
