WTF Tennis hitting partner

Thefiftytwo — Sun, 23 Apr 2017 21:16:35 +0800

Hi, I have just moved into a new condo in Sri Petaling, the tennis court here is in good condition and it would a waste not to hit some balls.

Should I buy a new phone?

Thefiftytwo — Fri, 07 Apr 2017 13:14:16 +0800

Hi all, I've been using Samsung A8 for about 1 yr+. The 2 problems that really bother me recently are the battery life and problem reading PDF. I think the battery is times up but i couldn't change it cause it can't be detached. For 2nd problem, everytime I try to download PDF from email, the phone has to close all the apps and freeze for a moment before I can read the PDF.

I'm not sure if I should get it fixed or just get a new phone. This is probably going to be my last Samsung phone. Don't really trust this brand anymore. If I'm getting a new phone, what would be a good replacement? I use Waze a lot, check emails, calling, reading, taking pictures and occasionally replying email on phone. Don't really play mobile games.

Thanks

Estima dilemma...

Thefiftytwo — Mon, 13 Feb 2017 22:05:18 +0800

Hi guys,

I'm planning to buy a used Estima with budget under RM100k. Firstly I would like to know if it is a good idea to buy a used Recon car like Estima. Secondly, since there are quite a number of used Estima available in the market, should I prioritize...

Year Make?
Year Register?
Condition?
Or other factor?

Thanks and appreciate your advice

2013 Hyundai Santa Fe

Thefiftytwo — Fri, 20 Jan 2017 00:17:18 +0800

Hi guys, I'm looking to buy a 7-seater SUV, mainly to drive my family and occasionally only need the 3rd row to lift 6 passengers. Most of the time i'm happy to use it as large cargo space. With the budget I have, I come across 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe selling between 60k-80k. My questions as below:

1. There are 3 variants. CRDi, Elegance and Premium. I wonder which one would be a better deal

2. Is the 2013 model reliable? Any known issue?

3. Is the maintenance a burden and spare part availability?

4. A mechanic told me not to get Diesel type for this model. Any valid reason?

5. How's the resell value?

6. Please feel free to suggest any other option in similarity

Thanks

Hi, I am looking to join some badminton lessons to improve my physical condition and skills. I would consider myself as an intermediate player with average skill level.

Aquatic pets beginner

Thefiftytwo — Tue, 05 Feb 2013 14:18:47 +0800

Hi, I'm new to aquatic pets. I have a few 4ft and 3ft tanks left by my friend and I'm thinking of keeping fishes. I've read some tips online and would like to get some advice about where I should start.

1. Should I get a filter and pump?
2. What would be the best fish species for beginner? Easy to be taken care of and less demanding on the environmental factors
3. Any recommended aquatic pet shop?
4. Internet says that I should not locate the fish tanks outdoor under direct sunlight. What would be the solution if I have no choice?
5. Any tips for a beginner?

Thanks

Looking for tennis coach

Thefiftytwo — Sat, 15 Jan 2011 00:35:42 +0800

Hi, I am thinking of picking up my tennis play again after a long rest. My level is barely a beginner, as I only started playing a year ago with only a handful of basic lessons. After most of my mates quit learning and my tennis shoes were spider-webbed since then.

Looking for coach with reasonably low rate. I am 28, too old to be a pro player, just wish to be able to play at the standard of average players do. (Am I asking for too much, lol...)

Hope to start immediately
