Reunion in London
Rod, Chui Peng, Eva & GL
With emails, it was easy to quickly organise a small group for lunch. Rod, the thorn among the roses, met up with Eva, Jackman (our Chui Peng), GL and a common Marian friend, Lesley. There were 4 Thomians & 4 Marians among the 5 of us.
We were the first customers for lunch at the Dim Sum restaurant, which was popularised by prime ministers (of UK & Singapore). No celebrity during that Sunday except us!! It was good to catch up again after quite a long break. The last I saw Eva & Chui Peng was in late 70s or early 80s. Who cares! It was good to find out how each of us are doing with our career, family, etc. We spoke of good old times as well. Rod recounted an occasion (during Lower or was it Upper six) on how the guys did not know how to handle the girl (or lady) who cried over a precious jade bangle which was accidentally broken during a rehearsal - an incident the lady has forgotten!.
The waitress was getting impatient with our long stay so, we got out & continued talking non-stop outside the restaurant. We have to part our ways & the ladies continued to Oxford Street & China Town of course.
Well, I managed side trips to Birmingham to meet up with my landlady, who is 91. The weather was hot for September, so it was the "second" summer for the year. We also managed strawberry & raspberry picking (& eating) session.
Eva, GL & Lesley raspberry eating from the shrubs!!

FH2o, this is better than the 5 lines!! Ai yah, you do not know how this IT idiot was trying to figure out how to post on the blog. Not bad for first timer?

Congrats GL for posting to the blog. We have another contributor.
Wow! Good looking 50 year olds not a day older than 18!
Well done Geok Lian for that impressive debut!
Although questionable pics that may again be misconstrued as phallic objects are best left out especially when they're being handled by minors! ;o)
Looking forward to many more posts from you in the future GL!
(btw I'd taken the liberty as blog administrator to re-align the last 2 photos and accompanying text for easier viewing. so don't hit me with that fearsome looking phallic vegetable!!)keke
Ai yo, GL. Trust the administrator to think of that!
Ha ha..fH20 you are shocking! We NEVER honestly see it like that until you corrupt our mind. Must go to church for confession now..
Look look!! It's innocent eyes who won't imagine what FH20 is interpreting!
Pure mind thinks of simple things.
You are awful!
soli, sol1!
*hanging head down in shame n slithering away ...*
;o)
I'm just pulling you folks legs lah since mine is long enough n don't need pulling ... hehee
I'm BAD!!! *piak piak*
ACTUALLY - this is to 'wake up' readers to this site ... no?
Hmmm! fH20 is incorrigible. No help! :-)
watch it, watch it....
Ahhh...h there's an even better photo that GL's got, but hasn't posted. ..... you know the one I mean GL....
fh20, you upping your offer of latte and puff to GL then?
em, you are very right. Luckily, my second sense tells me better don't post that pic.
Can't imagine what other comments will come from that!! Let's keep the suspense. I think I did not send you that pic right?
I think FH20 has to up the offer with laksa & kolomee, with Kuching kopiO or special teh! airflown from Kuching.
fh2o, Fedex kolomee & kopi O on sat. and laksa & teh c special (with gula melaka) on sun. to GL, can or not? Ya lah, chia pa boh su chor!
On the advice of legal counsel *ahem*, I shall make no further comments on the grounds that it may incriminate me further ...
dthetan - Incorrigible or Recalcitrant? ;)
Come to think of it, both suit you equally. No hope liau! :-) Meditate on a snow flake..
I'm gonna chew up the bunny n kitty!!! arrrrrrggggh!!! ;o)
Hello to Rod n the "Roses". You guys don't look a day older than while we were in Lower Six! Is this a recent 4to? Hehehe.
Lost Rod's contact since our chanced meeting at Federal Hotel KL c/w your fiance and parents. And thereafter, your parents' anniversary celebration cruise along Sg Sarawak.
Didn't know GL is in S'pore. Hope to meet up some time in Kuchg or Kl, or even S'pore.
