Is your wife more highly educated, does she hold a higher appointment and earn more? So who wears the pants?

1. It looks I've to look for a new maid soon, any recommendation in getting a decent maid from a trusted maid agency? 2. I ever had a bad experience with a particular maid agency, which is based in Orchard road and the maid could hardly stay with me for 3 months, one run away and 2 resigned. Finally, the 4th one stay a good 2 years. Since I didn't have such experience with any otehr maid agencies so I suspect the quality of the maid agency plays an important part in getting the right maid for our family. My maids all good life, have private room, private toilet, sleep early and wake up late. 3. Do you have good maid agency to recommned or should I be avoiding those so call high class maid agencies that give empty promises but can't deliver good maids? Thank you very much. Regards,

Just came back from Genting Highland. Second trip by fabia. Handling and performance still good, but to my suprise the car is capable of 180km/hr. I actually clock 178 km/hr but still can go because can feel the car had not reach its max yet. The accelerator pedal was not at the bottom yet. Last check was in 2001 where I manage to confirm the manufacturer top speed of 163 km/hr. During that time, car was still new and did not want to push it further. On my trip up, I hit 170 km/hr and was quite satisfied already but was surprised even when on the way home that it actually hit 178 km/hr and yet capable of going faster. I can simply assume the car is capable of 180 km/hr or maybe more. Car configuration, standard except for a piece of super fuel max magnet, which I find not much different driving in s'pore. Engine oil is syn base and only additives added was motor-up that's all. Car condition mechanically okay, problems encountered before the trip and kiv are 1. air-con slight leaking at the connection but still cool because only very slight leak and will take about a year to affect the air-cond coldness. 2. Water pump slight leak, but did not fix beacuse its expensive and had been monitoring it about 2 month before the trip, still okay after the trip. Just sharing my experience.
