Here's the map of the location. the car park next to the old Oasis Restaurant very close to the Kallang
River water shore line ( more like a sandy beach ) You can see the Singapore Flyer and the future IR over the water skyline from the car park, and the Indoor stadium behind you. Refer to my previous posted pics above, you can come by the Stadium Road from Nicoll Highway or the Stadium Boulevard from MacDonald and KFC.

by pessimizt 27th August 2009, 9:05 am

Add-on from ctoh's:

things 2 bring:
1) spanner to open the casing (should be in the boot with the spare tyres)
2) scissor/cutter to cut the materials
3) ice cream stick to apply the glue (i have a lot of ice cream stick and cable tie left so dont need to buy)
4) small container to hold the glue
5) drinks to quench your thrist (1.5l mineral water should be sufficient)
6) stool to sit down and rest
7) umbrella if it rains (if it rains, have to plan for wet weather program)
8) a smile on your face Razz

9) don't leave your patience at home grin

10) bring towel if you tend to sweat alot
11) bring extra clothes if you are going somewhere directly because you will definitely sweat (and smell)

* Dont wear jeans or long sleeve as it is open area and sunny (hopefully). Try to dress in shorts (or berms) and tees (or singlets).

Anyone have any other things to add-on ? alien

lukester wrote:emmm spanner can get from spare tire compartment.

No spanner in the spare tire compartment. Don't forget to bring along a piece of cotton material cloth for drying the air-con pipe prior to the installation. I will post some photos of the car park later in the afternoon.

by pessimizt 27th August 2009, 11:54 am

Hello andi, have ahhh....my spanner was found together in the spare tyre compartment.

But anyway, to those who are doing the insulation, kindly double check the spare tyre compartment if yours have the spanner or not. If dont have, can share share the spanner too. Very Happy
