  2. Ron,

    I shall be in Hong Kong during this period. No worries, another time. I was hoping to bring you to a Chao Praya riverside restaurant for authentic thai food.

    Anyway, Banyan Tree is a beautiful resort. Have a high time, up there.

  5. Christina,

    2nd half of December is really good time with festive mood, lights, food and drinks.

    For many years, I did not get to enjoy this time of the year. But, as years move on, I want some time of this season too. Give me a call when you are here.

    Terence

  6. 23-28 Dec, I am off to MaeHongSon, upmost and highest part of Thailand, with families of my son’s classmates. Temperature expected to be cold and dry. 2nd trip to the same place, in two years. Think this would be a fun Christmas, long winding roads and scenic views.

    Someday, we will go there as a SHC group.

  7. “23-28 Dec, I am off to MaeHongSon, with families of my son’s classmates”.

    Everyone of us knows that you’re smart but now we know that your little boy is even smarter.

    See, the whole of Bangkok will be celebrating their biggest party ever during Xmas, with kids given the chance to go wild, booze in bar……….and there, he sends you to the upmost and highest poart of Thailand with his fellow kiddos families……..

    Still time to stop yr plane and buy a cane……..

  8. Hi Terence,
    Thank you for your offer.

  11. Hello Rely,

    Mountain lover, anywhere got mountains, will interest you! he…he..he….I suggest you make a trip to NZ, many many mountains, can climb Mt. Cook also…nice scenery, playing with Ice balls. How about that…wait till I show you my photos. :)

    Ah Nee

  12. Thanks Neely

    Yes, I am a Mountain lover.
    No, NZ is too “X” and too far.
    There are many in Asia, to name a few – Tibet, Nepal, China, Vietnam, now Thailand and our neighbouring countries – Cheap and nice scenery too.
    I haven’t been to all yet and when there is a will, there is a way.
    Any SHCians willing to come and travel with me? Dun mind simple meals and able to put up with basic sanitary hygiene. SG$2 a nite accomodation. Any taker?

    Cheers
    Rene :)

  16. Melissa, Eyvonne,

    The weather yesterday and today is cool and dry. Looks like the cool weather has arrived; now that the rains are gone.

    I am not able to find a one week apartment. Usually, for at least one month.

    SMS me first, if you are coming.

    Terence

  17. Rene,

    I like camping at Nature Park resorts. From now to March, it’s easy to get a camp space for $2, clean toilets. If you have a weekend, give me a buzz. We can form a small team of 4 to go up together. There are a few nice local wine, great thai bred steak and local coffee.

    Terence

  18. Hi Rene & Terence,

    I love nature too… remember you mentioned abt hiking/trekking up Mt K.Kinabalu Rene?
    Am interested in this kind of outing. Jan/Feb’08 is good timing, no problem with simple meals & basic lodging.

    Cheers
    Joyce

  19. Wei wei Nor,

    Wake up, wake up, afternoon nap means 1/2 an hour only hor, sleep so long. Hey! Rene & Joyce talking about hiking/trekking up Mt K.Kinabalu leh! You interested or not? The last time we went trekking was at Sibu Island. Want to take up this challenge? Must ask our Rely “Sifu” for advice lor…..

    Ah Nee

  20. Yes, Terence

    I will definitely take up the offer but have to look into my 2008 work calendar.

    Joyce Tan, Janet Chan, Norly, Neely and Lawrence Khan (now you all like trekking/hiking) and any others….? Am planning for one in 2008, hope to get support from your guys and gals.

    Will email separately for a good timing (preferably long week end holiday) to discuss on this.

    Talk to all soon, Cheers!
    Rene

  24. Hi Kenneth,

    Just to check if your maid have given you the Bangkok Map that I delivered to her last night. What happen was, last night some of us were at SGCC and since you stay near by, I thought I might as well returned the Bangkok Map back to you. I don’t have your contact, luckily Ronald Lee know where is your house. So with Ron’s direction , I drove to your place to pass it to you (not at home) so Ron passed it to your maid. Thank you for using your Bangkok Map. :)

    Ah Nee
