One Fine Sunday Afternoon In Kuching
Doreen Chin, all the way from Alberta, Canada, was in town for the Marian (St Mary's School) Reunion Dinner on saturday night and Geok Lian flew in from Singapore as well for this dinner. I was not prepared to dorn a dress so I'd to forsake the dinner ... *sigh*
Anyway, Geok Lian organised a lunch get together for sunday and I being the 'kay-po' (and fussy about food - I wasn't prepared to give up my sunday kayaking for lousy food!) that I was; caused a change in venue for the meet. We met at the "Shanghai Restaurant" (top level of Loke Thian Restaurant) at noon.
standing: Tsui Pheng, Geok Lian, Francis Ho, Irene Lim, Lim Lian Keeseated: Doreen Chin and Nancy Foo
It was a very nice dim-sum lunch and Lim Lian Kee generously picked up the bill. We suspected that he needed the receipt for his taxation purposes ... *ahem*
This is Mr. Bean , himself besides his 'funky' van-car that has space behind the back seats for prisoners or dogs! No kidding!
After the very nice lunch, I invited everyone over to my house for coffee and to show them that I really do have a jetty and a river at my place! Here are the lovely ladies at the jetty.Doreen Chin, Geok Lian, Nancy Foo, Irene Lim & Tsui Pheng.
We then went inside for coffee and freshly home-baked pastries by my wife. It's the durian season now in Kuching; and as a durian lover, I have fine 'yellow-flesh' durians (from Borneo Highlands) to offer as well which Doreen, Irene and Geok Lian said are the best they had tasted for a long time. Of course mah! Kuching durians are the bestest in the whole wide world! *burp*

Aha, we now get to see Doreen & Nancy, fast forward 31 years.
Fh2o, not fair, we weren't invited to your house & jetty!
fH20, thank you for the posting and showing the photos. Can still see the face resemblance on our old school mates. Note so many cameras on the dining table and in their hands!
apa itu - soli, soli! I'll roll out the red carpets the next time ... ;)
thedtan - most welcomed! trust that you'll do the same with the meeting in Spore with Doreen ok?
Yes! Very observant of you! Everyone has a camera except Mr Bean who is now 'learning' to use the email. I was impressed until he explained that he's now instructing his secretary to use one! Not him! aiyo!!
Good to 'see' you all again.
Has Mr LLK got a barrier between the main body of the car and the doggie/prisoner section?
I always thought Nancy's surname is Sia. Don't tell me that I've got it wrong all these years!! So sorry Nancy.
I'm not sure about the barrier but I know that its a "Renault Kangoo"; a car with as much character as Mr LLK!
I can't help you with Nancy's surname nor me with her "flat-feet" problem which are 'acting-up' on poor Nancy ...
thedtan, does our BA's head look like Lao Fu Tze's here? When I was young I used to draw men's head with 3 strands of hair, not a great artist mah! Peace, fh2o, peace man, it's X'mas!
I see 2 cameras on the table and 2 ladies holding satu biji durian! Anyone holding camera?
Apa Itu, see the other photo taken by the jetty and you will see people holding camera...(no durian then).
Oh Ya! Definitely look like LFTze..Mercy, BA...mercy. :-)
*sigh*
People can you please stop picking on my hair as there are not many of 'em left ... *sob, sob*
Ed: Oh, I was feasting my eyes on that dining table & durians! Sorry man!
