*OBSERVATION CANCELLED*

Passing on a message, the Tampines observation session has been cancelled because apparently the grass field is being hit by a bushfire.

Please wait for an update online or give Weixing a call. Don't turn up and start wondering why no one is there and why your shoes are on fire. :)

Have a nice day
Chris

Hi,
Just came back from outside, the smell is now nearly gone and the sky is quite clear.... but it just too late and I too tired to go out.

This is what happen :(

Anyway, hope that next week the weather will be better and no fire this time.

Have a nice day.

Ya... The sky is clear, but also very hazy at night. Anyway, I won't go out even the sky is clear... the smell is so thick at night that make me feel sick! Also, there are so many ashes in the air... I don't want to clean my scope everytime I came back!

By the way, hope that the it'll rain for one or two days to clear up the air and sky... it's full moon now, so rain la!!

Have a nice day.
