Update (6-1) - Another gathering

Suddenly occured to me that I should drop a line about a visit to Yvonne's house in Aug.

Yvonne had moved to Duxton for 5 years already.  We kept saying that we (me, Lydia and Yvonne) should do a gathering at/visit to Yvonne's "new" house, but never materialize. 

Finally, it was me who organise again.  In the 2nd weekend in Aug (WK's still in US), I took Lynn, and Lydia and Chow Long brought their 2 kids to Yvonne's place for dinner.

As I arrived much earlier, I had quality catch up time with Yvonne and her 2 kids.  They grew up beautifully.  I remembered her boy when he was a clingy kid at 3+, and now he is a friendly and thoughtful P3 boy.  And her gal was a fragile looking baby, and now she is a chatty and active K2 gal. 

Lydia got there quite late, and so I did not get to interact with her kids much. 

At close to 9pm, we went to visit the 50th and 26th floor roof top.  The kids "came alive", and started running wild.  It was a pity that we started late, else the kids would have a much longer time to play.

We left at 10pm, which was way past our bedtime.  I sent a whatsapp message to Yvonne the next day, to thank her for opening up her house for this gathering, and apologize for not being able to stay to help clean up. 

Hopefully, in another 5 years' time or so, we can have another gathering which the 3 of us can have some quality catch up time.

An acquaintance

My nth time on biz trip. I was wondering what I can post in FB or blog when I'm at the airport today. Least expected it, but I actually met an old acquaintance. An ex colleague from a company which I left at the end of 2003. He said he is the last one there (and said of course there is still Bee Hong). I couldn't remember his name neither can he remember my. We spoke of Patrick, whom I missed. He told me about their mahjong session with the late Michael. I told him for me it's Lydia and JJ whom i am still in touch with.

Went FB and got 2 old photos from Lina's album. Wah so many people whom I once upon knew.. Gul, a label that I didn't use for a long time liao.
