earth hour

You should know that tomorrow at 830pm (local Malaysian time) is Earth Hour, right? Well, if you don't go here for information & do sign up for it....

There was a letter to the editor in The Star a couple of days back, saying that this is just a publicity stunt. He said something like it should be a continuous exercise & not just one hour a day in a year. But it starts somewhere right? It's up to us to make it an annual one hour on one day exercise or if we want to practise it.

But it will make a spectacular sight no? Imagine the city in the still of the dark, lit probably by candles or lanterns. Plenty of happenings around town but unfortunately we have dinner plans with some friends.

The funny thing is, the hubby wanted me to check with the restaurant whether they would be part of this Earth Hour event. So I called them, spoke to the manager & it went somewhat like this:

Me: Hi, I was planning to come over for dinner at your place this Saturday but I want to know if you are participating in the Earth Hour event?

Her: What event is that?

And I very patiently explain to her what it's about only to have her tell me "No, no we don't have booking so far for this event."

Whatever lah!!!
