Ted’s Friday night dinner 15-Jan-2010

Another really good Friday night dinner at Ted’s Butcherblock. Happy chickens make for very tender chicken fricasse it seems.

Clipper Club do

For my birthday last week, I decided to indulge myself a little bit with The Clipper Club‘s Lifesaver package: shampoo, head/face/neck massage, hair cut and another shampoo.

It’s a very relaxing process. Sit back and relax with a hot towel wrapped around your face while you enjoy the head and neck massage. Afterwards, you get a fantastic haircut and then another shampoo to wash out any loose hairs.

The Clipper Club is located just off Maybank Highway behind Wappoo Cuts (just past Mustard Seed and Boulevard Diner). It’s a place I’ve walked past many times before, but never noticed until recently when Clipper Club got on Twitter.

Not only did I get to enjoy a nice relaxing massage, I also received one of the better haircuts I’ve had in a long time. It’s also within walking distance of home, which makes it easy for me to get haircuts a little more regularly than I used to.

So glad I discovered the place. Now I wish I had known about Clipper Club earlier.

Google Chart API and QR codes

Google’s Chart API is pretty cool. I just discovered it can also be used to create QR code graphics.
Cool.
