Time moves pretty fast. Speaking of those days, I'm probably the last 20th century kid who still remember everything, before 21st century.

I like Gregory Peck with Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday.

One of the most memorable scene in that movie was when he puts his hand in the stone lion head mouth and do you know that it wasnt in the script? He made that up and it did frightened Audrey....guess she was something like Ris Low at that time>LOL

Chew Bakar SG

Nah, I will never said Audrey is Ris Low.

Audrey is pretty in any standard.

Tiffany is also selling its brand then along with Givenchy fashion.

and cat was in vogue then.

the Bear SG

poor Cat.. but in the movie, Cat was tossed aside as a proxy for their emotions, then found again...

Breakfast at Tiffany's also had one of the worse racial stereotype ever played on a major motion picture

Chew Bakar SG

Are you referring to the tiny weeny part of a fake Jap by Mickey Rooney?

the Bear SG

yeah.. that was horrific

Chew Bakar SG

You're viewing it now not in the 60s.

anyway, I found some spare cloths made into patchwork rugs in Johor Bahru.

Is thinking of picking up the skills where I seen my grandmothers use old clothes and make itto some kinda textured quilted ruffles floor rugs.

Any ideas any CC teaching those?

No idea. Haven't really check on any cc for a long time.

Then no choice. Will have to figure out how.

So far, my old clothes are used only as disposable rugs. They are mostly synthetic materials some more.

Those old style floor rugs are very comfy to have under the feet when coming out of the shower cos it really soak up water.

At first I thought it was a pic of WKS when he found out that someone had escaped from a detention center.

Do you still remember that 'Zoo 101.6' radio station from Batam?

Chew Bakar SG

Yes, but the DJs at Zoo 101.6 were the party animals that really started 95fm going with their good tunes.

Good to have competition.
