Motored up to Maison KL in the early afternoon, making reasonable time. When Noi drove up last Friday afternoon with Rohana and various chums they got stuck in a four-hour jam at Tuas. In happy contrast we sailed through today.
In the interests of full disclosure the music for the journey was as follows: various Malay delights on Warna, the Singapore radio station, up to Machap where reception, as always, shut down; Bowie's Hours, late-period and a bit bland, but I bought it cheap on a pirated CD ages ago and any Bowie counts as good Bowie when motoring; the sound-track to The Good, The Bad and The Ugly by the Maestro himself, Ennio Morricone, which just gets more spectacularly inventive and completely out there the more I listen to it; and Daniel Lanois's Arcadia, which soothed me through the evening rush hour traffic in KL on arrival at the metropolis.
Just ate two excellent prata with egg at the Craven Restaurant on the hill (or should it be pratas?) and replaced five light bulbs and had a shave and all is very well indeed with the world.
