Hi Friends

We have filled up 2 tables following my post in October on the New Year’s Eve Countdown at Ritz Carlton.  We have received several enquiries asking if we could book additional tables.  Here’s the good news!  The organisers are able to accomodate us if we book by this week.  They could try to group us together with the first 2 tables which were booked in Oct 2013.

If you and your friends (SHC’ians and non-SHC’cians) wish to join us on New Year’s eve, please register as soon as possible.  We need a minimum of 10 persons to a table.  However, if we are not able to get a full table of 10 persons, we will not proceed with the booking.  Please check latest comments in this post.

Rate:  S$120 per person (includes door gift, dinner, dance and entertainment) FYI, the door gift is an innovative (branded) air purifier retailing at about S$150.

This trip is the beginning of my love story with SHC travelling group.  We had so much fun, laughter, food, entertainment and dancing throughout the short trip.  I’m sure most of my fellow travellers will agree with me.

We have to thank the following people who had made this possible –

• Terence for initiating and leading the group;

• Susan for making the hotel arrangements and rooming list

• Peri for looking after the financial aspects

• Gentlemen for their tender loving care in looking after the ladies

• Frisna for providing free entertainment on board

• And any other SHC’cian who had in one way or another contributed to the success and smooth running of the tour.
• Last but not least, all the supportive ‘seow seow’ audience who were so receptive to all kinds of jokes, Q & A grilling by our infamous reporter from CNA, CNN to CBS, without whom, we would not have had so much enjoyment during the trip!

A comical star was born on 8 November 2013, Day 3 of the trip.  It was spontaneous and so hilarious that we all almost died laughing so hard and many can’t stop laughing even after the show ended.  So, fellow travellers, please share your experience with everyone here.

I’m looking forward to the next trip led by Terence, either to Taiwan, India or Sri Lanka.  Have passport and money will travel !

We have secured 4 places for a 3D2N tour to Ho Chi Min City, Vietnam.  I am looking for a female room-mate.

Travel Period: 17 to 19 Jan 2014 (Fri, Sat and Sun)
Depart SIN:    17 Jan 2014 – Singapore to Ho Chi Min, ETD 0740
Arrive SIN:     19 Jan 2014 – Ho Chi Min to Singapore, ETA 2055

Tour Price: S$358, twin sharing includes the following:
a) 2-way airfare and taxes, travel by budget carrier
b) 2-way airport transfers by luxury coach
c) 4-star hotel stay
d) Guided tour with English speaking guide
e) Meals include breakfast, lunch and dinner (total number of meals provided unknown but was told all meals included)

FYI, this is a customised trip and we will be travelling in a group of 60 persons.  If you are keen to join us (Alex Woo, my sis-in-law and I), please post your interest here as soon as possible.   Alternatively, you may write to me at: shcmayleewoo@gmail.com   If no takers by 14 Nov Thu (1600), we will have to cancel 2 places.  Then I will travel with Alex only.

Closing date:  14 Nov 2013 (Thu), 1600

Payment by:   15 November 2013 (Fri), 1200

Thousands of end users were caught by surprise the unexpected inconvenience caused to them after a fire broke out at the telco’s exchange station on Wednesday, 9 Oct 2013.  Businesses lost their customers and takings for the day; punters missed their winning opportunites; subscribers scrambled for connectivity with their friends; lovers, friends etc missed their dates or were late for appointment.

Where were you and what were you doing at the time when the disruption began?  How did you adjust to the inconvenience?

Read my comments on my story.
