Haha...thatz so funny CanCan...eh but for me tampon i still alien leh. :tlaugh:

Also missed old school playground. esp the see-saw, merry go round and swing. Somemore, like wood and metal made ones. Now where got liddat one. Child falls down on this current playground oredi, parents panic like xiao. Just imagine if present playground most of the equipment are made of wood and metal, when the child falls down, parents will have heart attack.

Kids now so lucky coz playground now like so 'cushioned' and safety-protected BUT they are not as rugged as kids like we used to be.
