(Advisory: No news posts on Christmas Day & Boxing Day as we take a Holiday break. We'll be back on 27 December)

We are hoping that when you read this, you’re safe within the confines of your home and even better in the company of friends of family. It’s too cold outside to play airsoft so it’s best to keep warm and be a chairsofter over the weekend.

With the Covid-19 Omicron variant rapidly spreading like wildfire, we are all expected to do our thing to protect ourselves and others from being infected as instructed by authorities. Wearing masks, washing hands, social distancing, getting vaccinated, having booster jabs… whatever it takes to help out to avoid health care systems get overwhelmed.

But since it’s the Holiday season, let’s enjoy it even with the restrictions in place and make the most out of the situation. We wish you all a happy season as we all want to end 2021 and face 2022 with renewed hope that things would get better.
