1st Annual Dinner and Dance – Sat 24 Mar 2007

The SilverHairsClub first Dinner and Dance is confirmed:

  • Dress:  Nice of course, or anything that makes you feel young and good.
  • Price:  Now pegged at $30.  Originally, SGD 25+

  1. Last year, my friends and I used to go to the Neptune Restaurant to have dinner and dance (once a month – on our own)at special prices. If you really need this place, I can check to see if we can book at discounted price.

  2. Hi Pauline,

    Please help me to get some info, eg discount pricing. When you have some details, I like to meet up with you.

    Thanks for your help.

  3. Slow moving topic. But, the names will come in. If you like to come, please put in your names here. It will help us gauge the numbers and do the planning.

    Terence Seah

  8. S$25 is really very affordable for a D&D but with prizes and more, might be too hard a bargain to strike so perhaps for those who wish, donations will go some distance to help make it a lot more interesting.

  12. We have a suggestion to hold the D&D at a Penthouse, located along Beach Road. The place can hold 100 people. Food to be catered.

    I have not seen the place; but am planning to go visit during week of 15 Jan. Like to join me, let me know.

    Please suggest other possible places.

    Terence Seah

  13. Yesterday once more, Hotel California, Sukiyaki, Dancing queen. English songs. I love Chinese evergreens, except I dont know the song titles in Chinese.

    We should have old songs. If you are a hot spot, with old and evergreens, raise your hands. We need you during the evening.

    Terence

  15. Do include me in the Dinner and Dance list. I like english oldies and evergreen songs, but I am not familiar with chinese songs.I can help in the sing along session …to my best capability. Thanks.

    Rgds,
    clara

  17. Hi Everyone,

    I would like to attend the Silverhairs D & D event. I also love to sing old evergreen English songs and Chinese songs. Pls count me in for the singing. Thanks

    Bernadette

  18. I would like to join in the fun too. Please include me in the D+D. I’m better in Chinese songs and ok with English oldies (70s and 80s). Just let me know if help is needed.

    ivy

  20. Have missed too many events already. Wouldn’t want to miss this so please include me in the D & D. Love both Chinese & English oldies & evergreens.
    Might be able to help if you let me know what kind of help is required.

  22. Terence,

    D&D at a Penthouse, located along Beach Road. The place can hold 100 people. Food to be catered.

    Site inspection visit during week of 15 Jan.

    Would like to join you, let me know time and place to meet up before your visit.

  27. For most of us, singing, crooning, croaking shdnt raise a sweat but so far, seems like nobody has suggested doing an oldie from the chinese opera. Maybe whoever is game can join me as princess cheong peng in the cantonese best -the “emperor daughter’s flower”…..we can even re-enact the highpoint but of cos no poison will be drunk…..coca cola is dark enough to make the bluff.

  28. Can’t sing and dance but sure would like to join in the fun. Also, if I can be of any help, like helping in registration at the D&D do let me know.

  33. Hi Terence,
    Please include me too. I wouldn’t want to miss this very first D & D of the SHC and would be glad to take up Tim Liu’s challenge of being his singing partner in “Dai Loui Fa”. Did I guess correctly, Tim?
    Irene Chan

  36. Hahaha, Terence you are my marksman ! And Irene, sure, it’s my highest pleasure to welcome you as chow sai hin’s princess cheong peng. Now that we might hv a cantonese opera in the offing, is anyone offering the “green cat, white cat” (chey ngiow, pek ngiow) for the D&D? Or someone bring Back johnny tan to take us thru his “my bonny”?

    Now, who can say there’s no dare in silverhairs?

  44. Hi,

    It is a blessing too from members who come forward with sponsored prizes for the D& D .It might not necessary to be an expensive item but importantly give with a willing heart and a smile. We could use all the sponsored gifts for the lucky draw purpose. Any suggestions?
    clara .

  46. Hi Terence,

    I have spoken to Serangoon Gardens Country Club.
    They have a room that caters for D&D and can take up to maximum 190 people (19 tables). Their charges $25 per person include usage of the room, buffet dinner, room setup, etc. Do you want to go and have a look at it? Please let me know and I can arrange accordingly.

    Tks
    Molly

  48. I’ll sponsor myself as a consolation prize which means the winner can take me home for the nite and into the next day, with me consoling him as I am sure, no one has got no problem.

    Seriously, I’ll put up a prize worth $2m only for the very very lucky person…..yes, 10 big sweep tickets giving him 10 chances to hit it big !

  52. I definitely would not want to miss such an important nite for SHC members. Cannot sing and dance but like to be present to join in the fun. Terence, please put my name down (and tentatively would like to bring a partner as well).

    sb

  53. Potential venues for the SilverHairsClub D&D:
    1. City Loff Penthouse
    2. Serangoon Garden ball room
    3. Lion City hotel function room
    4. Civil service club – not sure where it is.
    4. Royal Hotel function room

    Suggestions welcome. We would close this decision by Wed 24 Jan.

  54. I will sponsor a bottle of man cologne, a pen set n a 5.0 megapixel digital camera (export set) as lucky draw prizes for SHC’s D&D.

    With good company, fun entertainment and attractive prizes, its already a good reason that members must not miss it.

  55. Hi Tim,

    I am here for the the showers of blessings..If i am the lucky one to win the $2M, i will throw another D&D for the members. I will sponsor gift voucher for the D&D. Members assistance, support and contributions will definetely make OUR SHC Club worthwhile …Looking forward to another fun and memorable nite. Godbless, clara.

  56. Clara, I took a long hard microscopic look at every inch of you at the potluck and i must say you carry that “777” all over so no qn, the $2m must be yours to win. Hehe, but dont make us form cicles again hor……..too drunk by then to clap, nod or touch our knees.

  57. I must thank Clara for the “forming circle n holding hands 2gether” break. It brought me back to the days when we were young n innocent. Perhaps we should include kampong games in the next round.

    Anyway I enjoyed it although I was really more worried for our safety that coconuts may land on our heads.

  59. Lily

    I think you need or get someone (see if the bouncer is available) to guard those bottles of whisky. Otherwise, they may be long gone before the lucky draw takes place.

  61. Yew Kwong, you said you “must thank Clara for the “forming circle n holding hands 2gether” …..” Sure, how else wd you get to hold hands with a guy(hehe imagine 2 batangs holding hands in the public & without an excuse?). Include kampong games in the next round? Ok, you & I will do a horse-fight with Patrick-Terence…..no prize guessing that Patrick & I will be the warriors.

    At the rate prizes are coming in – of cos it’s happy news – each of us might get to take home 2 prizes. And since I love to bounce, will volunteer to be a bouncer so everyone shd hv no worry that their prizes will be in safe hands….hehe, maybe so safe that you’ll hv to file a proof of ownership to get them back, subject to contesting interests, injunction & whatnot.

  62. Hi all,

    All of us missed our eligibilities to join the “Beauty” and “Man-Hunt” contest in our younger days because of our commitment and busy schedules. Now, let us relive that dream, have fun and laughter. Who wanna have the guts to clinch the title-our 1st “Miss” and “Mr” Silverhair of the nigh 2007.

    Guys, you will be disappointed!
    There will be no swim wear or bikinis for sure.

    Just an idea! Bash it if you are offended.

    Aunty Rene

  65. Hi,
    I was wondering this penthouse location for D&D is ideal enough as I am afraid that there might be alots of restriction due to private property, like any restrictions on timing and car parks’ space availablity, security, etc.. Nevertheless, majority win la…. Dolly

  66. Dolly, Christie,

    A few of us reviewed the Serangoon Gardens Country club and found it to be suitable. As such, we may pick Serangoon Gardens, after looking at two other recommendations ie Civil Service club and Lion City Hotel.

    So, we drop the penthouse.

    Terence Seah

  68. The Civil Service Club at Bukit Batok is spanking new, having been opened only last year. It is 10 minutes walk from the Bukit Batok MRT station.

    I volunteer to be on the Lucky Draw Committee. I will write the names of the people attending and put them in a goldfish bowl (anyone volunteers to be the auditor?) Last name drawn will win the goldfish bowl (or biscuit tin if I can’t find the golfish bowl). Sorry no water, no gold and no fish. I can do other stuff related to the lucky draw as well – like labeling the prizes, handing out the prizes, etc.

  69. Joy, useful input on Civil Service club. Probably not for D&D, but may be for our Sports Days.

    You are confirmed to manage the lucky draw. No change of mind, eh.

    Terence

  70. Oh Terence, what I typed was not what I meant. When I said “handing out the prizes”, I meant passing the correct item to YOU (or anyone else) to hand to the winner. My sincere apologies for having sounded so presumptuous…

  72. Haha, perhaps at our age, it’s more apt to wear that sash declaring us “Auntie Solverhair” or “Uncle Silverhair”; more befitting if it says “Ah Por Silverhair” or “Ah Kong Silverhair”. But I wont contest however seductive the tile may be, forseeing that I’ll prop up the cellar, what with Patrick atop me grinning like having won toto?

    Grow old we all must and grow old graciously, we shall all try. It’s easier to find a suitable aphrodisiac than the evasive potion that stops ageing which, since time immemorial, emperors & their concubines failed to find.

    Great to see the spontaneity of volunteerism !

  73. Hi Terence

    Have missed too many events already. Wouldn’t want to miss this, please include me in this D & D. Might be able to help if you let me know what kind of help is required….Tks…Pauline

  75. Pauline Chew Says: “Have missed too many events already…Might be able to help if you let me know…” Of course you can. Help me park my bicyle when I ride there.

    Our cycling members used to ask “hey, wheres Pauline?” I replied them, shes gone on a riding trip to Mongolia.”

  77. Serangoon garden C club might not be easily accessible to members.so pls find maps,location,what bus etc to get there.
    l can help out with the lucky draw ,n planning prize for games. l hv got 2 games in mind,table game and others.want more games idea from members.all participate to hv fun instead of just sitting down n eat is more fun. The in city loft can be our next meeting on the roof top.will talk to op mgr.

  78. since l notice from the posting that serangoon garden c club can accommodate up to 190 people we can change the limit now.Please book early put deposit etc in case all so happy plan everything then no place (just being cautious).

    Terence ,get the email of all committee member and write to us,so we all can communicate with each other n brainstorm,then meet to plan ,discuss etc

  79. Committee members,
    I am preparing to send the first email out to committee members so that we can start thinking about the evening event.

    The commitee is big enough, for now. So, we can leave the team to work the details. For the rest of us, you can continue to share your thoughts here on this forum. Thank you for the strong support.

    Terence Seah

  80. Gosh, this is really tough. But, the job is still far from finish. As usual, with all events, we find an Event Organiser (team leader) to take us through to the details. Well, finally, we manage to convince Dolly Lim to take over, and lead the details.

    For those who are new to the culture of the SilverHairsClub, this is usually what we do. We start the event, but we have not skills to finish it. So, we hand over to someone whom we think has the experience to work the details. Thanks Dolly, she just agreed today.

    A meeting will be called soon. I know everybody is excited. At the same time, I must thank Molly Chua who is a member of Serangoon Gardens Country Club. The ballroom is a nice place, and you will love it. Thank you Molly.

    On this note, I wish to acknowledge the vast network and experience of SilverHairsClub members. Ask, and there may be someone within the club to help you. Thanks Molly.

    So Dolly, I will find the first meeting date, and the rest, I leave you and the committee will enjoy ie planning the details.

    And, thanks to Christie Chee for recommending the Penthouse. It was beautiful. The skyline was superb. But, we thought another occasion. There are just so so many beautiful places in Singapore. Thanks Christie.

    Terence Seah

  81. I’m gonna dance all night
    I’m gonna dance all night
    And still I’ll beg for more!
    I’m gonna spread my wings
    And do a thousand things
    I’ve never done before ….dadadada…dadadada..

    Dear SHC members,
    Sing the above lines to the tune of “I could have danced all night” from the movie “My Fair Lady” and you would have got some idea of the excitement I feel about our very first D’n D.
    So, you guys and gals out there if you’ve not put your name down for it, do it now before it’s too late.
    Jokes aside, Terence, I notice you’ve included me in the committee. I’m glad you did ’cause I was just thinking of volunteering for it. Talk about “Great Minds Think Alike”!
    Now to quote Clara Chay, I want to sponsor 5 prizes with “a willing heart and a smile”. I would like to donate my services as prizes.
    No, no, don’t roll up your eyes in horror at my audacity. It’s not what you think!
    I’m merely offering 5 vouchers which will entitle the winners to 5 free line-dancing lessons, terms and conditions attached. The terms and conditions refer to the time and place where the lessons will be held.
    I know these vouchers are not in the same league as whiskeys or sweepstake tickets which can send you to seventh heaven or turn you into instant millionaires but they involve a lot of time and effort on my part, okay! So, please don’t look my gift horse in the mouth, okay!

    I’ve got to log off now, otherwise no time to practise singing the song about the princess who must take poison.

  82. English version (scene renacted):prince to princess…through songs.

    “Lady In Red..” by Chris De Burgh
    “The Dancing Queen ..” by ABBA
    “She’s The Lady..” by Tom Jones
    “Please Don’t Go..” by KC and the Sunshine Band
    “When I need You..” by Leo Sayer
    “Walk Right Back..” by Anne Murray
    “Without You ..” by Mariah Carey
    “My Heart Will Go On..” by Celine Dion

    Life is precious …therefore take “Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa” instead because HE needs You so..hehe
    Clara,

  83. Hi Everyone,
    I am very sure that all committees for D&D will guarantee that we do our very best to ensure that our first Silverhairs D&D will be a evening of great fun with exciting games, songs, dancing and lucky draws.

    So gals and guys, so what we hv a few of silver or grey hairs, just make sure all of you put on the dancing shoes all night long… I assure all of you, music and songs will be just as great….

    So members (those have yet to register), pls do so immediately to avoid disappointment………. Dolly

  85. Yes, thanks to Dolly for agreeing to lead the committee, Molly for facilitating the comfort of a ballroom to us, and Christie for putting in a penthouse as another exciting option. If I am needed anytime earlier to pounce b4 I bounce, pls call me @ 96695702 or email tnotswit@hotmail.com

    S’goon Gdns CC brings is nostalgic to me. Known as SG Sports Club then, it was somewhat laid-back. We played soccer with the ANZUK forces. Game was only a name; spoiling for a fight was our aim. So with crunching tackles, fights must surely ensue.

    We also had the hippies slouching in a corner, lighting up marijuana & blowing at convent schoolgals. It was up to the gals to pick the atheletic us or the dysfunctionals for wkend parties.

    How time flies….no soccer field, no hippies but a club that allows us to hip hop, come 24 March.

  86. Hi Terence,

    It is my pleasure to do something for Silverhairsclub. Next time I will buy you beer. Take note that visitor parking lots are limited but one can park along the private housing estate opposite the club. Do not obstruct their gates which is very important as they will call the traffic police to come down and summon the cars.

    Let me know when the meeting will be set and we can all discuss the dinner menu as well as other arrangements.

    See all of you soon. Hip hip hooray.

    Molly

  90. Hi Terence,

    Serangoon Gardens Country Club is a good choice for D&D. I like the music and ambience there. Please add my name to your registration list. Wah! we all can cha cha thru’ the night ………..

  91. Hi Terence,

    I would like to contribute one set of Home Microbrewery System (deluxe) as a Prize to D&D at SGCC on March 24, 2007. I would love to attend, but I am not sure of my schedule in 2H March 2007 as I still freelance & travel overseas. So one will need to pick up the prize, if I am not around here.

    Parking lots are very limited for visitors in SGCC, however one can park along Reglan grove and other side lanes near SG Post Office with usual precautions.

  94. Since some of us will be meeting at MPH cafe on 7 Feb 07, we can discuss and car pool or share a cab to the D&D since parking space is limited for visitors. Parking around the area on a Saturday nite is always a nightmare.

  96. Very true. Every wkend, almost the entire spore descends on s’goon gdns………no bar-top dancing, no progress package given out so just dunno what the lure is? It’s easier to find a centipede – livid & kicking – in one’s bowl of mutton soup at chomp chomp than to find a parking lot there.

    Well, it being a D&D, I suppose the ladies will invariably dress up & like to come in their gowns, v-backs, t-backs………..you cant run after a bus like that so no choice but to come in cars.

    In comparison, we guys will breeze in. Even if we were to see the king, it’ll still be a shirt, pants & shoes.

    So how? Maybe we can all agree to dress down for the nite, coming in our most comfortable attire….t-shirts & denim jeans? Like that, we can enjoy more, hv no inhinitions, can all jump up & down, dance high & low.

    Think abt it…………………..

  100. Dolly Says: “3pcs of casual lady handbags…and 1 document bag.” Looks like the ladies will be carting home all the prizes in those handbags and even pieces of paper will not be spared with the document bag taking care of them.

  101. Hee, Yew Kwong, I throw you a challenge………if you come v-back, t-back, bare-back or carry a hand bag, i’ll do the same. Terence, dont laugh………you dont need to bear so long as you come dancing with the zoo’s sun bear.

    Btw, how the kelong did YK know that “…..the ladies will be carting home all the prizes……….”? Rigged? Haha, if that’s the case & YK is an accessory to that, I’ll make sure I put him in a handbag and take him to a sifu to learn the finer art of building kelongs.

  102. If inconvenient ladies dont hv to be in gowns,difficult to move around,elegant pant suit,over the knee dresses,just dress nice not so casual as in just tshirt n jeans(for ladies) guys nice t-shirt n jeans will do (right? organiser) Its just that if its a formal occasion ladies like to take the chance to dress up.

    Just a suggestion,for those who are donating prizes,can you wrap it,put a sticker to state what is it.Then bring to the function,the organiser can just take it and put it down as
    prizes for lucky draw.This saves their trouble of having to collect so many,wrap and bring there.

    We have to think of hw to collect the $25 for the D&D too.Have to collect earlier in case places,food booked and no show then who is going to pay for it.Hope we make it that we dont entertain last min gate crasher,as food might not be enough.we will book for the number of people who confirmed n paid

  103. Seriously, pls dont take me too seriously on my suggestion to wear t-shirts, jeans & flip flops. It is thru the kind gestue of a member who is also a SGCC member that we are offered the ballroom at the club so any flippant show that nite wont dont her fairness or justice.

    Yes, we shd try to make payment earlier, in time for some amt to be put up as a deposit to SGCC. Obviously gate-crashers will, at best, be frowned at.

  104. Yew Kwong – judging for those response signed up, high chances, most prizes will be taken up by at least 80% ladies so that you are right to say that these bags really come handy for them. hahahaha. But worry not as I am sure that they are still prizes for you guys lor…

    Tim, I fully agreed with Christie for ladies to dress up for D&D, after all this is the first Silverhairs D&D. I am sure we ladies are definitely prefered to dress up despite of some inconviences pertaining to transportation la… they can always taxi-pools which I understand maxicab take abt 10paxs at $35 to meet at 1 designated pick up point, I will try to get more info on this and will update later.

    Christie, as for the prizes and collection of $25, I would suggest that we leave them for the time being till all committee members meet up for the 1st meeting to discuss various options and designated duties of individual members. How abt that??

  105. A dress code for this event would be great.
    Smart casual would be nice as we want to relax and enjoy the nite and as Tim said,” we can all jum up and down, dance high and low”

  107. Christie Says: “Hope we make it that we dont entertain last min gate crasher…” Dont worry Christie, Tim will bounce them off the premises wif his huge biceps.

  109. A good idea to cab-pool in a 10-pax taxi. I’ll expand it further. Book a cab driven by a 45+. Pay for his ticket at the D&D. Top it up with a lucky draw handbag for him to win and that joker will drive all 10 home for free. Costs for each – $25 divided by 10 = $2.50, cheaper & safer than chasing buses in long skirts & high heels.

    Smart & casual? Sure, we guys are casual all the time which also makes us smarter all the time. (Again, seriously, do pls dress in a manner comfortable but also befitting the ocassion and decorum).

    Hahaha, YK, I where got huge biceps? But I do keep a set of forceps with the right size to pull out anyone who wants to crash the gate for a free date even if his nagging mother wants him to quickly find a mate.

  111. Sure dolly,just thought of it so just put it down as a suggestion for discussion regarding the lucky draw prize n collection of $25.

    Glad to know it seem everyone is so excited abt this D&D,can feel the vibrant (is there such a word)

  112. Of cos there’s such a word as “vibrant” as you wd describe a high voltage atmosphere. Hehe, luckily you didnt feel any vibration or the vibrator.

    As the expectancy increases in decibels, the vibrancy of the D&D can be assured.

  114. Hi Dolly, Pls registered me for the D&D on 24 Mar’07. I am a new member. Will I received any confirmation on this event?? Will I need to check my email for the confirmation??

  115. Hi all!
    Seems like all of us are all fired up about the D&D. Great!
    For your info. There’s a Seniors Fair at the Toa Payoh HDB Hub on,Thursday 25 Jan ,Friday 26 Jan and Saturday 27th from 11am to 8pm. It’s especially useful for those of us who have the time to spare to do some volunteer work or just to be aware of the organisations in Singapore which cater to seniors who have specific needs.
    I was on duty at the RSVP booth yesterday and was able to get a lot of fun on the side too.
    Do go there with a friend, you’ll love it!

  117. Hi Agnes,

  127. Yellow is the colour of the royalties in Msia, I know that.

    Respect is earned, not demanded, I support that.

    One brings embarrassment upon oneself, I agree with that.

    Btw, insofar as cheque payment goes, is the name of the payee exactly “Dolly Lim” – it’s important that the account payee name be correct to avoid the hassle of returned-cheques.

  128. Hi Dolly,
    Please confirm if cheques are payable to “Dolly Lim”; otherwise, banks will have difficulty clearing the cheques if the names are incorrect. Thanks.

    ivy

  129. Dolly,the cheques issue to your name is it? please list down yr full chinese name that u can bank in so members know who to issue the cheque to.

    Great,dolly is hard at work to get things going.
    hip hip huray to her

  131. Hi Dolly

    Have remitted cheque to address as stated for myself and Tay Maureen. Do the club charge for cockage charges for bringing wine? Thank you.

  132. Hi All,
    Sorry, please do not issue any cheques out yet… I need to get the exact name to be put in the cheque. My mistake…

    Hi Terence, can these cheques be make payable to you. pls advise asap.

    Thanks.

  136. Hi

    Anticipation is high for the D&D, atmosphere is highly charged in expection for a night of good company, good food (?), lots of fun and meeting new friends.

    Terence, I know you have your hands full with so many emails to attend to. If you can check, I sent you an email to list my wife, Judy Lim to participate in the D&D, I guess you may have forgotten (if necessary, I will register her as a SHC member).

    sb

  137. Just a suggestion for those who had signed up but had not registered their membership.

    Pls register now to avoid the last minute close fight between unregistered n registered members for eligibility to D&D when the quota of 100 is reached.

    For those who wish to participate but havent sign up yet, there are now less than 20 to go. Last minute withdrawal by signed up members is unlikely this round. Guess we all want to really enjoy the occasion.

    yk

  138. Yeap, you are definitely right about this la… we are reaching 100paxs mark soon….

    But it is also a must to be registered and pay first before attendance can be considered confirmed for the D&D.

    For those who will be attending Feb 7 gathering, you can pay in cash or write a cheque make payable to “SEAH KIM SENG” and pass to me when I am there on Feb 7 evening.

    For those who are not attending in Feb 7 gathering, send the cheque to the following address:

    Green One Industries Pte Ltd
    11 Howard Road #05-00
    Tat Hong Industria Building
    SE 369583
    Attn : Dolly Lim

    Pls indicate your name on the back of the cheque.

  141. Hi Dolly n Committee Members

    Since planning and collection of fees for the event is already in progress, should the registration closes on 15 Feb 07 (even if the number of 100 is not reached) or when the number of 100 pax is reached (may continue after 15 Feb 07)?

    If this point is clear, preparation work will go smoothly without disruption. I believe there are a lot of work to be done by the Commitee members.

    Next, I have a suggestion. Members who are contributing items for the event should categorise them as “consumables or prizes”. This will greatly ease the work of those in-charge.

  142. Hi CK,
    As we only managed to hold our first committee mtg on Feb 7. All items/events are still being iron-out and once we finalise them, we will definitely post in this forum for every members to view.

    As of now, we tentatively fixed the commencement time for dinner at 6pm onwards.

    Thanks…. Dolly

  143. Hi Yew Kwong,
    Come leh… I cheo you in to be committee members la… aimai….

    I guessed Terence must be buzy to update the guest list. As of Feb 7, we have 87 members signed.

    I have discussed with Terence that we will try to stop at the 100paxs mark however, if members sign aft this mark, we will put them in KIV list first. Like I said, registered is not considered as confirmed until payment is rec’d. Nvrtheless, we will definitely tackle this after CNY when committees next meet. Now, abit bo-sim cos CNY is ard the corner lor..

    Yeap, we are thinking of how to handle these sponsored gifts from members and how to categorise them accordingly. Actually it would be even better if sponsors can email me at dlgummy@hotmail.com (if they don’t mind) directly pertaining to this and their values so that we can do what deem fit.. what say you?? Pls comments if any…

    You are definitely vry right, we need every help one way or another to ease some of the work load lor…

    Thanks for the valuable input. Much appreciated….. Dolly
