N-Flag 2015

National Day is just around the corner.
SG50, big celebration for the nation.

Since it is the time of the year, putting up the flags around the estate is back again.
Remembering from last year, it was quite a daunting task, as we only had 2-3 persons doing all of it. Probably a good 60% was done by Mr Koh.

This year, the commander is back. Mr Koh of course.
Bought new flag poles, and also some SG50 flags.

We had a meeting on Wednesday evening. Halfway from the meeting, few of us adjourned out to prepare the flags.
Mr Koh, Jason, 2 Erics, and myself.
Due to larger manpower, we prepared the 40 flags pretty fast. Impressive. Mainly near the Eunos MRT side alone Eunosville.

When the committee meeting ended, Sunny joined us to go around the estate to put the flags up.
6 guys putting up the 40 flags. Finished around 10pm. Pretty good I must say.
 
Then Thursday evening, we continued. Because less people this time round (only Mr Koh, Jason and myself), it was a long and tiring task.

Putting the flags along Changi Road towards Geylang.
Walked back and forth quite a few times from Kampong Ubi CC, as most of our old flags were pulled out from the store room.
There were about 80 flags from last year!

Can't believe it, we were doing from 7pm to 12midnight.
Si beh jialat.
And guess what? Not finished yet. LOL
Tying the flags to the railings can take quite some time. These were the ones without the poles. We had a lot! :P

Some more important sites, we had to put up the flag poles first also.
There were a couple of things to do.
See the men at work!

The only good thing was, we were doing it in the evening this time round.
No scorching sun. No sunburn.
Just aches. :)

Today is holiday. CC not opened, so cannot continue as we cannot get the flags out.
Tomorrow is another day. if not, will be Sunday.

Wow! Tomorrow quite a lot of activities.
