About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A little boy walked into the PJB Accident Repair Centre one afternoon, staring wide-eyed at the ceiling. His father noticed an unusual pattern of dents and scratches that seemed to form a hidden message when viewed from just the right angle. The father asked the mechanic, ‘What’s with those strange marks on your ceiling?’ The mechanic shrugged, smiled sheepishly and replied, ‘Oh, that? Just some graffiti from a regular who was waiting for his car.’ And so, the mystery remained unsolved—until someone finally painted over it with a new design, much to everyone's relief.

2. A delivery driver pulled up to the PJB Accident Repair Centre one morning, only to discover an old, dusty ukulele leaning against the fence. Nobody claimed it, and every day after that, strange items appeared nearby—an abandoned kite, a half-eaten sandwich wrapped in newspaper from the 90s, even a small potted plant. Finally, one day a tiny note appeared next to a lost library book: 'Founder of the PJB Found & Lost Centre, reporting for duty!' A regular dropped by later with a box of mismatched socks, explaining he always forgot where he parked his car when wearing them.

3. Early one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the PJB Accident Repair Centre with a puzzled look on his face. He’d just received an unusual package—an old, rusted bicycle wrapped in bubble wrap. The mechanic took one look and burst out laughing. ‘This isn’t our usual business,’ he said, shaking his head. The delivery driver shrugged, clearly perplexed but amused too. A few minutes later, a regular customer walked in, saw the bike, and asked if it was for him. Turns out, it was his childhood toy, long lost.’

4. One rainy night, as a mechanic was fixing a car's headlights, he heard an announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention, all mechanics and staff—your headlights are on fire!’ The mechanic quickly turned off his own headlights and rushed outside, only to see that it was just another delivery driver with faulty brake lights. Relieved but embarrassed, he helped fix the issue while laughing about it later with a regular customer who happened to be standing nearby. 'At least I didn't burn down the place,' he joked.
