Farewell to Lego 10196 Fire Brigade MOC

This MOC (My Own Creation) was done for loan to Bricks & Cubes Café, Cathay Building Outlet for public display on June 2015. It was then moved to a private collector for safe-keep and display since Bricks & Cubes Café closed the outlet, till today.

The Fire Brigade MOC is done using 2 sets of Lego 10196 and surplus with parts from Bricklink.
This MOC will be tear down shortly, this blog post will served as a sweet memory for all the past good times.

Displayed @ Bricks & Cubes Café

Thank you Chief for keeping my City safe

Wonderful and spacious kitchen space isnt it

Those were the good times we had spend together

Chief always say its about time to retire the 1930 era Fire Engines

We thank both the Fire Unikitty mascots for safe guarding the station

Super Blue Blood Moon

31 January 2018
Singapore
The last time the astronomical event happened, inelegantly termed a Super Blue Blood Moon, was 152 years ago in 1866.





If you miss this one, the next blue moon total lunar eclipse will happen on Dec 31, 2028, though it won't be quite as large since the moon will not be at its closest point to Earth.

Another will happen on Jan 31, 2037, a total of 17 hours before perigee.
