I know I have fans. I must have. That feedburner count doesn’t get that high if no one’s reading my daily… ok ok… not-so-daily fluff right? 
Anyway, Wuching wanted to know about my fans.
By Wuching’s definition of fans, I have only 2 that span the ages of technology and nostalgia.
The Modern - wireless, remotely controlled gizmo wonder
Panasonic ceiling fan with remote control speeds. Cools a treat on hot days but is usually off because I get some strong winds up in my castle in the sky.
The Old - nostalgic, yesteryear still going strong.
Hands up who remembers this KDK table top fan from their childhood? You don’t see these around much anymore. This says its the deluxe model! I suppose its because it comes in 3 speeds. 
I grew up with this fan that used to belong to my late grandma. As a kid, she would scream at us if we went too near it while it was on, lest we stick our fingers between the wire screen and have them lobbed off by the fan blades. Many years later, it was wrapped up and kept in the store room until some time last year when I asked my mom if there was a spare fan around the place. You see, I’m too stingy (and inefficient) to get an air conditioner fixed up in my “study” so I figured a table fan would do in the interim.
It does work, and it serves its purpose. And I get some pleasure and a big dose of nostalgia using it because the whirring it makes as it turns reminds me of the nights as a kid when I’d creep into my late gran’s room to sleep. I had a room of my own but I went through a phase when I couldn’t sleep unless it was in my gran’s room. So, yeah, this fan reminds me of those days.
Perhaps it should look a bit more like this:-
And those are the only 2 fans I have in my house.
Over to you to tell me about your fans:-
Yours fluffily

actually using fans instead of air-conditioners is better for the environment so 3 cheers to Paris! hip hip hooray! hip hip hooray! hip hip hooray!

Hey I remember the table top fan, ‘cos I still have one at home! Almost got my fingers hacked off when I was really young, cos I just had to stick my itchy hands in then. Tsk tsk.
