  1. Hiya Lydia! I thank you for supporting my 2nd East Zoners’ Get-together and I want to support your event too. The only snag is I won’t be able to stay till 10 pm but I guess even if I am there for 2 hours it’ll be okay right? :)

    Of course I’ll pay for dinner! Hehehe

    Cheers
    Ros

  2. Hi LydiaC,

    Again, well done for offering your time and effort in organising the next East zone gathering. And, we appreciate your making your resort club available to us for this event.

  8. Dear Lydia,

    Appreciated that your effort to arrange the gathering upon our discussion during the Easterner Get Together. FYI that can’t help in serving foods as I’m only available around 6.30pm to 7pm on that day.

    Thank you.

    Judy

  9. Hi Lydia

    Sorry I’m not able to come as I’ll be leaving Singapore soon
    You are welcome to visit me in Shanghai (nice to know you at the walk)

    I already told my friends about this event.

    thanks

  10. Hi Yatsing and Daniel,

    This is to acknowledge receipt of $10.00 from both of you for the gathering at Lydia’s condo.
    Lydia, please update the ‘paid’ status against their names.

    Hi Lydia Soh,

    Please confirm your attendance by depositing $10.00 into my bank account. I will acknowledge accordingly.

    For those who are coming, please give encouragement to Lydia by paying up the ‘makan’ money. She has to inform the caterer on the total number of people that has to be served.

    Thanks and Cheers

    Bernie

  11. Dear Lydia SOH,

    Hi, we share the same name! Wow!! Look forward to meeting you.

    And thanks to Yatsing & Daniel for paying up.

    Can the rest of the people pls at least confirm you are coming, if you’ve not paid up. I need to do food catering. Hope you can understand.

    Thomas, I’ve added your name. Sorry for the oversight.

    Regards, Lydia

  12. Steven, of course you’ll be welcomed! Lydia is extending this event to ALL SHC members. :)

    Lydia, my apologies. I’m getting my husband to tt the payment today.

    Cheers
    Ros

  13. Hi Ros, No issues on payment. Thanks for your kind support.

    Hi Steven, you’re most welcome to come. Only thing, I hope you don’t mind the distance!

    Regards, Lydia.

  14. Hi Elaine K,

    I can’t play tennis, and I’m really not sure who else are keen on tennis. I think Frisna Tan plays tennis, but i’m not sure if she’s playing this time? Frisna, can u reply?

    Alternatively, you can find your own khaki. Let me know in advance, as I need to book the tennis court.

    Btw, don’t think we’ve met? Can I take it that your attendance is confirmed?

    Cheers, Lydia.

  15. Hi Clara,

    Thanks. We have received $10.00 from you on 28/09 via ITR.

    There is an ATR transaction of $10.00 on the same day, 28/09. Can the person who deposited this money please identify herself / himself so that I can update the records.

    Hi Lydia Soh,

    Please confirm whether you have paid for this gathering ?

    Cheers

    Bernie

  16. #22 Steven Chan,

    Oi sai loh, are you going to swim? I might, if Lydia’s condo pool has no deep end. :p If there is a deep end then I’ll have to use my grandchildren’s floats. Hahahaha

    Cheers
    Ros

  17. Hi Bernie,

    Sorry for late reply to u that the add $10 is from me under transaction ref : 1083 at 2144 hrs last night.

    With regards for any inconvenience caused.

    Thank you.

    Judy Lim

  18. Hi Ros (& all those who likes water)

    Sure, you’re most welcome to come over for a swim. Remember to bring your swimsuits, towel & soap. The pool has a shallow end, with jacuzzi. Very relaxing! I’m sure you guys will enjoy it. And there’s a hot sauna too.

    For the karaoke enthusiasts, pls bring along you favourite KCD. Clara and I will be the KJ and MC for this event.

    I just wish more people can come. Those who can’t come, will miss out alot of fun!

    Cheers, LydiaC.

  19. Hi to all

    # esp: Lydia Chin / Bernie Chung

    Due to change in my family committements – I have to be in Malacca on Sat 2 Oct – hence I shall not be able to attend/ help out in the East gathering- my apologies!!
    I go by the rules – please make use of the cash I’ve paid for the party ! Have a good time everytime !!
    Cheers from : Fong T. Meng

  20. Hi Lydia/Frisna,
    am ready with a fun ‘charade’ game! It will appeal to the well-traveled and the well-read (which all of you are). Got 3 fun prizes – 1st, 2nd, 3rd – for the winning teams. So, come for the challenge & have fun.
    am looking forward to good food, good company, singing and dancing, and play Frisna’s games, also jacuzzi, sauna (wish I could play tennis with ElaineK but i am little match for her – 3 straight strikes from her and i am out), so i’ll settle for a friendly game of scrabble, if Steven Chan brings Scrabble.
    See y’all then!

  21. Dear FongFong .. sad that you can’t make it. But you have a good reason, hence we can understand.

    Yatsing, your enthusiasm uplifted me, esp after reading about FongFong’s withdrawal.. Thanks alot. I also have a scrabble set, just need to dig it out from the storeroom!

    Calling Sam.. pls confirm your attendance.

    Cheers, LydiaC

  22. Dear Elaine Kong, I received an sms from Shirley Wee, she’s a tennis player. She can’t come this Sat, but would like to rope you into her tennis group in the East.

    Dear Tim, I can’t read your comments, is it in Chinese characters? I can only see boxes! Strange! Will u be coming or not?

    Cheers, LydiaC.

  23. Hi Lydia,
    Replying on Sam’s behalf as he is working in JB rite now.
    Sorry 2 infm u dat as much as he wanted 2 attend this gathering, Sam is unable 2 attend tis gathering as he was told by his bro dat his help is much needed this weekend in JB due 2 shortage of staff at his bro’s shop.

    Best rgds… Dolly

  24. Haha, Lydia-C, you see boxes?

    Dont worry, we’re now 1 month after the lunat 7th month so I dont think you saw any long or oblong boxes………but if you did, then you must wear everything red for the next 7 x 7 = 49 days. Dont cheat with the color inside. They from the world under are like those from the underworld – they can see what we cant see.

    Jokes aside, if there’s a minimum number for the catering, I will go and reduce that number by 1.

    It’s never easy to organise an activity………….

  25. Hi Yat Sing,

    I will bring along the Scrabble set just as we had enjoyed playing at the Flyer world bistro. This time I bring the wooden stands as well.

    Are there any more Scrabble kakis ?

  26. Sorry to see this so late. The truth is that I’ve not been checking Silverhairsclub’s activities for some time. Imagine 2 activities – the monthly walk and this get-together in my backyard – on the same time and time! Em…hard choice…I’ll make it. Bernie, will credit as thomasgoh into your a/c tonight.

  27. Hi Judy, Rosalind, Steven Chan and Thomas Goh,

    I have received with thanks $10.00 from each of you on 28 and 29 September 2010 for Lydia’s East Zone gathering.

    Lydia, please update their status as “paid.” By the way, there is no record of payment by Lydia Soh. Please change the error.

    Cheers

    Bernie

  28. Thks Lydia for your kind hospitality. I really wish to come and see you all. But I was asked to attend a company meeting over the weekend and I won’t be able to make. But I would make it a point to attend another if you do organise it again. Hope your party would turn out nicely. Best regards, ElaineK

  29. Hi Thomas Goh,

    I m glad you are joining us in this gathering. Perhaps, you can join us at Scrabbles too and this time round I don’t need to bring a dictionary.

    You are an English teacher and a walking alive dictionary. :)
    See you tomorrow.

  30. Lydia dear, I got up this morning with a bad case of the runs (nicer word to use). I hope by this afternoon I’ll feel better. Nonetheless, I just want to let you know that if my condition persists I’ll have to stay home and rest.

    I wish you great success in your event and am keeping my fingers cross that I’ll be able to make it.

    Cheers
    Ros

  31. Dear everyone who came last night…

    We all had a fantastic time last night. The karaoke was great.. and the charades were challenging. And the games too! And I hope the food is up to your expectations. If not, pls accept my sincere apologies.

    Yat Sing took us one level up in the charades, and we’re now in “advanced level”, playing with worldwide landmarks! I look forward to the next charade session.

    Thanks alot, for all those who came. You’ve made my day.

    Cheers, LydiaC.

  32. Hi Lydia Chin/others,

    Not to worry about the food , it was beyond my expectation of what I should get for a $10 meal. I like some of the home cooked dishes like sambal ladies fingers and fish cake laced with coconut shavings and curry chicken.

    Important is that everyone had a good time together whether it was KOK ,charades,scrabbles and to me meal is secondary.

    Thanks to my scrabble kakis, Yat Sing, Rose White and Thomas Goh. Ultimately , guess who was the winner ?

    Thomas Goh, of course our English teacher who specialises in English. Congrats. If and only if more could attend……..

  33. hi lydia

    i thought you were going to email us the list that you have collected? anyway i have lost your email and need to contact you… so please email me; thank you
