Brian & Fiona in Indonesia

Hi there !! This is our 2nd blog as our 1st one went down the drain. Some techinical issues that could not be solved. Our entire site got wiped out. We had to locate our blog here instead. This blog will not be as fanciful as our first (with it being free, who can complain?) but it will continue to be a window into our lives here in Indonesia. Take care. :)

Fiona's Craft Blog


Don't forget to check out Fiona's craft blog where she'll post all her wonderful and quirky creations that she churns out on her trusty Singer Sewing machine. It's called Table Calender. :)

And since we are at this topic, perhaps I can have a show of hands to see who will be interested if I were to have another blog just for the guys? I'll post nice thongs ... erhmm ... I mean ... things that guys love to see. :) Hee hee hee :)

We are back online !!


Hello boys & girls,

Welcome to our new blog site. We are done with the previous website. We had some technical problems with the previous site and even the .Mac support were not able to provide us with any proper support. This blog site will not be as beautiful as our previous and we will have to get used to utilizing this new blogging format that Blogger provides us with. But it's free !! :)

Where were we for the last few days? I bet some of you did not know that me and Fiona took a short break to Jakarta. (I posted it on our blog but I think it did not get posted) I was sourcing for some sanitary wares to sell at my dad's showroom and Fiona was looking to buy some craft books. We also managed to eat some stuff that is unavailable here in Palembang (dim sum, proper ice cream, la mian etc etc etc ...) and did some shopping at "real" shopping malls.

Now we are back home in Palembang. Nothing out of the ordinary happened these past few days. But Fiona was unfortunate to have gotten an allergic reaction to who-knows-what (and thus, lots of rashes) in Jakarta on our 2nd day there. Could very well be the dusty carpet flooring or bed sheets. She saw a doctor in Jakarta and she's alright now. I was also unfortunate to have caught a bout of food poisoning (Not too unusual for me) on my last day in jakarta. Bloody hell. :(

enuff ramblings for now. You people take care lah. :)

By the way, the picture posted above was taken by my wonderful nephew Gideon. :)

Cheers
Brian Ong

"Hey kids, Rock & Roll, nobody tells you where to go ... Baby .." (R.E.M) - currently in my head and it's annoying the hell out of Fiona when we're driving in the Kombi :)
