  3. Thanks a lot Mary.

    In fact, one of the main concerns the computer working group has is where to find the computers. As usual, you have led in paving the way for the first donation………grateful.

  4. Hi Mary, you are such a darling. You are so far and yet so near. I see all your postings, north, south, east, west, I see you. You are very kind and helpful. When I asked about fishing, you are so quick to response and give me contacts. It is really good to know you but have yet to meet you. Looking forward to seeing you when you come for visit. Take care and stay happy and healthy :D

  6. Thanks Caroline for your kindness,

    You are an angel who I cannot resist to communicate and hope to meet you soon. You are always welcome to Perth and I can bring you to the oceans and the hills.

    I feel connected to SHC members because most of us are about the same age group, we have experienced similar things (goood and bad) in life, we share the hope of having quality life in our old age and we want to share what we have with others.

  9. Hi Mary

    Thanks for your great efforts and all the contacts you have gave us. I m glad this project is moving on so much faster than predicted.

    One very urgent thing now which I really need is a small area or space to store PCs that are refurbished to working state.

    Our status – collected 2 cpu n a monitor and delivered one set tonite. Now there are 3 cpu in my house (2 are from me). 5 more cpu (plus monitors) will be collected before this week ends.

    Once again, our sincere thanks to you Mary.

  11. Hi-Yew Kwong
    I just joined SHC recently.
    I like to be involved in IT activity.
    esp in the refurnishing the old PCs and helping in training in basics of using PCs.

  12. Hi Yew Kwong, Dennis Har here. Ever since I volunter for Used PC Project, I am lost until this email. Let me know when is the next meeting.

  13. Hi Yew Kwong, pls refer to Stock Investing, Sharing…. @ #46. I found this place may be ideal for IT activities.

    Come for the FREE talk or we can meet up on that day to explore the possibilities for your IT club to use the place. This place has 3 floors of space.

    I fine that IT is a great driving force for us silverhairs to leap forwards.

    Regards,
