Our Saturday morning started off with a $70 traffic summon. Reason being: Parking within 6 metres of a junction. We were absolutely indignant about it because we saw that the other cars parking within a metre away from us didn't get any summon ticket. So why us?

To cheer ourselves up, we decided to go to one of our favourite haunts in Toa Payoh for dinner together with our Aunty and Uncle. Looking at the crowd, my husband decided to drop us off first so that we could place our order. Strangely, it took an unusually long time for him to join us at the table. When he finally arrived, he brought with him a really BAD news - He had locked himself out of the car!

Earlier on, my husband sent the car for a "spa treatment" on Friday. I guess the worker must have accidentally turned on the child lock while polishing the car. He was meddling with the lock when the car door slammed shut. We have a spare key at home. However, the problem was the house keys were locked in the car!

We ended up taking a cab to our Uncle's house, took his car, he drove us to my mum's place to get the spare keys we left at her house for an emergency like this, drove us to our house, get the car keys and went back to Toa Payoh to unlock our car. Talk about running in circles!

This is a classic example of Murphy's law: If anything can go wrong, it will.
