A getogether of the old & the young...

Wed 111109

Just a short entry...

Yup, it was a night to remember...when the old & the young got together...for dinner!

And yup, it was a dinner organised specially for retirees of my former school and very well supported by many of the present teaching staff, too...not forgetting even friends of friends. The event was held last night (101109) at the nearby Anggerik Restaurant. 5 tables.

Dinner was kinda delayed a bit while waiting for those who had other commitments in their present lives. However, when it finally started, it started with a bang! Yup, the first dish was a special one...roasted piglet! Karaoke singing was also part of the package, not forgetting there was enough "booze" for those who were into its consumption, courtesy of the many sponsors.

A couple of pics of the "guests" from my seating position....

The Karoake enthusiasts were still at it when me had to leave...my other half was alone at home lo...

All in all, it was great to meet ole friends & colleagues besides meeting & making new friends. The best conclusion of the evening? None of our colleagues were "MIA"...still around! A good sign.

One topic that inevitably came up in our conversations was that about children and sons & daughters-in-law. What can I say? Guess it's the scene these days...the number of young who do not respect their elders is definitely nothing new! Me felt better...somehow...

Time for me breakfast.

Have a good day!
