"Oh No, not ag....!!!."

Being a Night shift driver I have to wash and clean up the taxi everyday before handing over to my Relief driver. For me, its usually around 4am. Sometimes, I get lucky when heavy rain falls, I am relieved of the chore after a tiring shift. I need only to clean and dust the four pieces of floor mats, that's it. Then just watch my taxi get a natural 'heavenly' bath. Believe me, it has always been a big thrill just watching the show. Last night, my last passenger, a young lady, flagged me near Lavender Foodcourt and she wanted to go to Ang Moh Kio Avenue 4. As soon as she sat down, even before shutting the door, horrors of horrors, she started to puke. Fortunately for me, just outside my cab - 'heng-ah'. When she finished, I straightaway gave her an NTUC plastic bag which I always keep handy, at least 3 pieces in the glove box (lessons learnt from past experiences). Asked her if she was alright and will she puke again she answered "Don't worry, I will not puke inside your taxi". I thanked her and gave her another bag to hang on just in case. I immediately sped off. On the way, along the CTE... "OMG" she held the bag to her mouth and puked twice more,  Yes, luckily, inside the bag.
During the whole journey, I felt very apprehensive and dreaded the worst. Finally we reached her destination, she paid her fare, thanked me and left. Safe at last, "Phew" what a huge relief, just then I thought I had to sweat. I think I better not recall what I had to go through the last time a passenger actually did 'it'.

Oldest trade in the world

Last night picked up a Malaysian young man, here in Singapore for 3 days. 
"Uncle, can you bring me to your famous Geylang, I want to see the girls there" 
"1st time here?" 
"yes" 
"'ok." 
Ah, you see, although Singapore is seen as clean and GREEN, we too have our RED light District. 24-hours alive and robust with beautiful girls from all over Asia. Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam, even from as far as Columbia, Spain and Russia etc...illegally plying the oldest trade in the world here. WHY? Money is good and customers flock here from all over the world. 
I drop my passenger along Lorong 8 and told him this is where he should start window shopping, this first Lorong are girls from China then proceed to Lorong 10 where girls are mostly from Indonesia and on to Lorong 16 where u find them from Thailand and so on and so forth. Enjoy yourself and Bye. 
He thanked me and there u go, another satisfied and happy passenger. 
Must go look for some bite now, yes! FROG porridge at Lavender food centre...yummy
