Don't tell me u studied in SJI or ACS nearby.

 

That's the Josephian spirit [;)]

I remember back in the late 70s during the Inter-District Football game between SJI and ACS we had a pitch invasion at Bras Basah.

After SJI scored the spectators invaded the pitch and threw curses at the ACS goalie.

 

Anyway, everytime when there is no crowd or little students at the Stamford Library bus stop during school dimissal time will mean only one thing. Fight is on at Fort Canning !

It was 120Y coupe registered in 1975. Bought it second hand in 1982 and drove up Genting with 3 friends in 1984. That time no new hwy. That time I only dare to go up 135 kph and then no more courage.

oh really? I never see John Little there before.

 

It was quite a rowdy place even now.Now is Sheng siong supermarket which I feel should be able stay longer than previous few occupants.The place was like a dead town.Even the pizza hut seem deserted except for mainly takeaway.
