Delayed

Noi got back from Melaka this morning, arriving home around 9.30. Since she thought she'd get back in the middle of the night, having upped sticks at 11.30 pm, this has to count as very late. The main problem: major jams at Tuas. She reckons it took some three hours to cross. Much as I would have liked to have journeyed with her I must say I'm pleased to have avoided the sheer waste of time involved in crossing between nations. 

Can't imagine what might account for so much traffic being on the road at that time of night. Or why the authorities on both sides can't ensure a reasonably speedy crossing even if things get a bit busier than usual.
