Season's greeting to you, my old friends and ex-classmates..

Hi! If you are celebrating christmas as I do, I wish you a merry christmas. If you do not, I wish you a happy new year. As we close yet another year of our life, we will take with us more memories..Let me share with you, some of mine..

Dinner & Dance

My hospital's annual Dinner & Dance is a fine time for us to 'let our hair down', to enjoy fine food and be
entertained by a professional DJ who, without fail, will always have a list of hilarious programmes lined up
to make one double over with laughter. The theme changes every year. I remember that in 1998 our table presented the Flintstone family and I was Flintstone. Another year I was Count Dracula. In 2005 I was the Grand High Witch from Roald Dahl's "The Witches" (See pic).










This year I appeared as a flamboyant playboy (picture). You see (wink) this costume was inspired by my encounter with a mannequin when I was just a young man. I was not the only one enthralled by it as you can see. The shops were already closed at Serbekas Shopping Centre in Kuching but four restless souls were on the prowl...We came across this mannequin in the foyer and also came face to face with the security guard. No, we were not jailed. We got him to take a picture with us..with the mannequin! But that is not to be posted!

I thought 'flamboyant playboy' should also display a bit chest hair and bulging crotch ... ;)

(hehee,I know I'm wicked sometimes)

BTW, I'm glad that I did NOT act like a sex-starved maniac back then!

Thanks for the post! Nice.

Thanks APa Itu. Time for fun means letting the hair down! The fourth person was Arthur Lee. He was the photographer! Those were the days...sigh...lovely memory though.

Hey, Apa Itu, I like your ginger cat. Just leave my baby bunny and kitten alone though.. :-)

Apa itu said...

Ginger is a tame, warm and cuddly kitty cat - no roars to frighten bunny & her buddy.
