With nostalgia, we recollect good times squeezing a family of 6 or 7 into a Morris Minor, without air-conditioning in those days.
Now, sitting 3 persons at the back of a 2-litre saloon is considered having to squeeze, thanks to growing affluence contributing to bigger body sizes. Having to wait for a couple of hours to car pool from KL to Ipoh and maybe a bit of compromise on arrangement for return journey, is likely to get a reply, “I’d rather drive my own car”.
Able-bodied persons taking up parking spaces meant for disabled drivers, is common here. Very often, drivers would double-park for their own convenience. For their information:
The following is an extract of an email forwarded by a friend:
"A son asked his father, 'Dad, will you take part in a marathon with me?'
The father, despite having a heart condition, says 'Yes'.
They went on to complete the marathon together. Father and son went on to join other marathons, the father always saying 'Yes' to his son's request of going through the race together.
One day, the son asked his father, 'Dad, let's join the Ironman together.'To which, his father said 'Yes'.
For those who don't know, Ironman is the toughest triathlon ever. The race encompasses three endurance events of a 2.4 mile (3.86kilometer) ocean swim, followed by a 112 mile (180.2 kilometer) bike ride,and ending with a 26.2 mile (42.195 kilometer) marathon along the coast of the Big Island. Father and son went on to complete the race together.
