Fountain of youths

This fountain at the end of the Curve shopping mall, between the Curve and the Cathay Cineplex has been open for ages, all of a sudden it was bordered up with flower pots.

I used to see little kids playing at the fountain, babies lah, seeing the water shoot out suddenly excites them enough and the go screaming and running back to their parents, Nice to see and brings a smile to my face. So when i saw the fountain close up, no more playing, I was thinking "why close it up? too dirty is it?"
Then I remembered my brother telling us elder siblings about one of his escapades. He had a drink at a bar nearby and was feeling all pukey. So where's the best place to toss up? At the fountain la! Bugger went and puked at the fountain...imagine his puke being recylcled and the shot up into the air again...yucks...
So it wasn't to prevent kids getting dirty, it was to prevent a big kid from dirtying it...stupid fella...
