Conrad Tang – Profile

Hi All, just wanted to introduce myself.  I register as a member last month in time for the monthly gathering.  Had an interesting time learning a new dice game from Jane (thank Jane) but on hindsight I should have probably circulated around more.  I am still working but am looking forward to retirement (not soon but inevitable).  I like to do walks, cycling, read (chinese and english – prefer sci-fi), photo nature particularly birds.  I visit pulau ubin yearly on pretext of looking for hornbills but really just to destress and enjoy nature.  Have done the southern ridge and McRitchie walks a few time. Hope to meet more of you soon
