HOW TO BE COMFORTABLE ON BOARD A PLANE
It's that time of the year again where many people pack their bags,board a plane to be where
they want to be.It could be those beautiful islands in the Carrabeans,China,Africa,Europe
or the beautiful sandy beaches of Malaysia.Travelling long distance by plane can be tiring.So
it is important to make oneself comfortable on board the plane by observing the following:
1.Travel in comfort by wearing loose clothes that is practical.No need to dress like movie stars b'cos most of the time you are glued to your seat.Bring extra clothing(jacket,shawl,etc.)to keep you warm altho airline do provide blankets for passengers.
2.Travel in comfort by getting yourself a good seat on the plane:
-a seat that can give you more leg room
-an aisle seat for easier movement
-back seat if you want to spread out(back seat usually less occupied)
-front seat if you want to embark in a hurry to catch a connecting flight
-a seat near the lavatory if you have a loose bladder
-a seat near the galleys if you want to be served early during meal times
3.Travel in comfort by bringing along reading materials(magazines,books,ect)
to keep you occupied.(Inflight magazines are limited)
4.Travel in comfort by avoiding earache due to air pressure during take off and landing
by having chewing gum or sweets(you can request from cabin crew)
5.Travel in comfort by doing light exercises to avoid muscle cramp and blood clot
6.Travel in comfort by drinking a lot of water to avoid dehydration

DINNER WITH SMILEY
Last night my younger sister took us to dinner at the Putra Jaya Seafood Restaurant.The get together was very meaningful to me for its not often that I can be with members of the family.There was my eldest sister, her grandchildren,my nephew,my son and my daughter.We
enjoyed the dinner and what makes it more memorable we were able to see Smiley in the night
sky(Smiley comprised a cresent moon that looks like a smile and two stars which looked like
eyes).From what I read in The Star (the local daily) today,this phenomenon was caused by the alignment of Venus,Jubiter and a three-day-old cresent moon at the right spot to form the
Smiley.Its not often that Smiley appears in the night sky.Those who missed it have to wait for another five years.We went home with full stomach.To my sister thank you very much for the
dinner.Hope to see you again in six months time.Enjoy your holiday with your son and
hubby in London and your stay in Doha.We going to miss you.To the staff of Putra Jaya Seafood
Restaurant we thank you for the excellent service.We appreciate your personal touch .
