Iand Anna spent the whole morning and afternoon running around from one part to another of the city distributing these gift packs to relatives and friends.
First before we could start to deliver the packs we had to go to the shop in Puchong at 10.00am to collect them and also to settle the balance of the money owing.
We were disappointed when the lady boss said that her credit card machine was out of order and therefore we had to pay her cash. I remember she assured us when we made our order last week that the shop accepted credit card payment. I felt that she wasn't completely honest with us but decided to over look the matter as we were in a hurry to send out the gift packs.
As we didn't have RM643.80 in cash to pay her we had to drive a few blocks to Public Bank to look for a ATM machine to withdraw the cash.
By the time returned to the shop with the cash we had already wasted more than an hour of looking for parking and the bank. Stressed by the traffic congestion and the difficulty of find a lot to park the car I and Anna were getting a bit on our nerves as we entered the shop for the second time.
After lunch our first stop was at Nicholas and Amy's house in Sierra 16. By that time the weather had started to get hot. We didn't go inside but chatted briefly with Nicholas and Amy by the staircase before leaving for the next destination.
After Sierra 16 we headed straight for Peter Chew's house in Pandan Glades which was about 1 hour drive away. In Peter Chew's house we spent about 30 minutes chatting with Peter Chew and Angie.
From Pandan Glades we then went to Chin and my sister's house in Taman Sri Sinar, Segambut. Spent about 30 minutes before returning to TPJ.
As Nigel who was out of town we could not go straight from Segambut to his Koi Kinara apartment in Puchong. We decided to return home and wait for him to inform us when he was back.
5.00pm. Nigel sms to said that he had already reached home. On the way to his apartment I ran smack into a heavy downpour and flash floods. Although I was worried about the flash flood I decided to press on my journey to his apartment.
Fortunately by the time I arrived at the guardhouse at the entrance to his apartment the rain had stopped. I handed over the gift pack to him when he came down from his unit after waiting for aout 10 minutes in the car.
7.30pm. Arrived home rather exhausted by the whole day's running around and the extremely hot weather.
