SilverHairsClub D&D 2007

The response to the SHC D&D at Serangoon Gardens Country Club ballroom has been more than overwelming.  Even I am surprised at the numbers.  Many members have not met one another, yet we are all looking forward to the friendship among SilverHairs.

Event Organiser Dolly Lim has refused to let me know the program for the night, so I cannot tell you too.  The organising committee has promised an exciting evening, but like all SilverHairsClub events, we try to do everything ourselves, at the best we can.  So, be prepared for some surprises, little faults and missed timings.  I am over 50, and there are many of us over 45. So, come and enjoy the company of other SilverHairs.

Strictly for SilverHairsClub members only.  Read all about the D&D here.

  1. It’s never easy to organise a big event, let alone one for more than 100 persons. So my fellow shaking-leg guests & I are very appreciative of the efforts put in by the D&D committee who is shaking all over to put up an exciting nite for us. Thank you !

    On that nite the least we can do is to participate actively, or encourage and cheer the participants. Yes, the nite is what we make it out to be : a nite for the sombre or a pulsating nite of bumper bumps.

  2. Aiyo, Terence, we know that you are vry vry busy mah, that why we leave you out in the planning loops but hor…. at the end of nite, you still needed very much to settle the balance payment lor… hehehehe

    I think now hor… most members must thinking that Dolly is real tyrant/bully le… hahaha… But me hor.. definitely not Empress Dowager la…

  3. I am close to insuring Terence for $3,500.00 for 24 hours on 24 March 2007 so we are all on the safe side.

    Thanks, Dolly, we are much obliged to you (and yr Committee) for working very hard on this D&D so if anyone dares to call you tyrant/bully, I’ll get Tyson to bully him.

    You.. definitely not Empress Dowager ? Maybe, Wu Tzer Tien sounds a lot sweeter? Or hehe, Yang Yu Huan (Yang Guifei)?

  4. Hahaha, Tim, still need to insure Terence la, he financial banker for that nite le… hehehehe…

    On behalf of the committees, thank you for the compliment…. Chin chai… Tyson ar ho or Wong Fei Hong, also can la..

    Mai lah… Yang Guifei… fat leh… I not so pui la… hehehehehe…

  5. Dolly, yes must insure Terence. Absolutely no question that he has the financial backing but my worry is, being so eligible and ever so obliging, he might be way-laid along the way to do some bar-top dancing on a chomp chomp table an dcant make it on time to settle the bill?

    Ok, forget abt ah yang so let’s hv zhow fei yen then……..voluptuous & shapely like that fan holding the wong.

  6. Aiyo, Tim ge-ge, like dat hor.. u suppose 2 jarga him mah and make sure chomp chomp mei mei cant get close to him lor… hehehehe

    Alamak, why compare me to 2 extreme har.. too pui or too san… hahahaha…

  7. If chomp chomp mei mei dont get close to Terence but to ah liu pek, then lagi si……Terence, why you so quiet, dreaming of bar-top dancing already huh?

    Ok, Teow Zhan for you then………like aunty tells the pork seller, I want 3-chern rou………..3-tier type…………..

  8. Liu-san, wu ya bo… you lagi laku than Terence meh… if really hor… showed these mei mei u r better than Terence in bar-top dancing lor.. hehehehe
    Probably hor.. Terence is trying hard to figure this hokeng lingo lor dat y tiam tiam bo dai zhi lor…hahaha

    Silor…. dat more like me lor… aunty aunty…

    I think you have GREAT POTENTIAL to jumpstart your Hokkien Clan Association ti rival that of SHC lah!

    I had been reading your popular comments and had gREAT DIFFICULTY deciphering your hokkien lingo and as such I can’t catch your jokes.

    It is better for you to express yourself at the hyperlink for jokers than at the comment columns bcos you often gets “out of focus” to the topic being discussed.

  10. Ah liu pek can never be lagi laku than Terence : he’s my equivalent of spore idol. Let truth be told, he speaks more languages & dialects than the best orators add together so it’s more likely that he’s busy practising tree-climbing in anticipation of climbing the bar pole and not falling.

    Steven, I can see that you hv difficulty separating putonghua, canton, hokien, bahasa and english and so had suggested that I start a Hokkien Clan Association. Given time, you’ll grow up some day to know more.

    God is fair, He creates those who understand my jokes, and those who dont. So fret not and dont be so hard on yrself if you dont.

    Obviously, yr focus is on dogs. I focus on the lighter side of life. If we meet in the same link, it’s not by coincidence but by choice. So if you choose where you wanna be, too I know where I shd be. Fair?

    Tim

  11. Hi Tim / Ah Liu ? ,.

    1 Are you the one and the same person bearing both names ????

    2 Was curious about you but still CANNOT find your member’s profile after scrolling up and down.

    Are you a “Genuine” SHC member or one of the “gate crashers”?

    ( I focus on the lighter side of life.—- GOOD )

    ( God is fair, He creates those who understand my jokes, and those who dont. So fret not and dont be so hard on yrself if you dont.—-> Yes, I strongly believe everyone has a sense of humour like you and be given space to express himself/herself .

    However,your jokes will be more Appropriate in the TIM SUM corner. ( where every member can share their jokes – Bo tai Ji right? )Terence,pls.take note.

    Although, I do NOT know Hokkien well, I love to hear Hokkien songs by “Chen Lei” – becos of its catchy tune and melody.

    Another famous one
    “chin tiang tai tam bo ” – Selling beer bottles ?? ?

    Steven

  12. Hi Steven, indeed I am tim, ah liu, bocelli, ah bo, sirreal (taking a pun on surreal), hot-x-bun (which got many humsuplors into a frenzy when all i had in mind was my kiddo’s fav nursery rhyme).

    I hv not posted my profile bcos I am still growing up and find it a wee bit early to conclude what I really am. Sorie if you din find my profile.

    Am I a “Genuine” SHC member or one of the “gate crashers”? Honestly, I dunno. Life is a stage and until we hv had our last gasp, we cant be sure.

    You said “Terence,pls.take note.” after seeking to purge ah liu into the kiddo’s corner. Hahaha, if I were Terence, I’ll say “Steven, pls sit down and take notes (of how others conduct chats)”. But Terence being Terence, he’ll rather charm his commander with his signature sweet smiles.

    “Chen Lei”, that Taiwanese singer who wears a hat like mou zi ge hou (the hatty queen) Feng Fei Fei? Sure, he sings well.

    “chin tiang tai tam bo ” – Selling beer bottles ?? Me not familiar with this one altho ever heard of another version of similar meaning……jiu kang tan buay bor ? A rather sad song with Sun Yuet acting as the stoical grandpa

    ah liu/ah bo

  13. Hi Ah Tim Bo Zhi PavaRotijohn,

    I am still VERY CURIOUS of your profile. And you have oVERGROWN “not growing up” .

    You are mysterious like the Phantom of the Opera. Seem to have LOTS of TIME replying to others posting/comments and more abt yourself.

    Sounds like you are a RETIREE ?
    U going to SHC D and D ? Would lie to meet a “SURREAL” guy like you.

    Appreciate if you can tell me the meaning of the Hokkien song “jiu kang tan buay bor” Selling beer bottles ?????

    ( A rather sad song with Sun Yuet acting as the stoical grandpa and ….tELL me more pls……

    What is the whole song about ? ) I lOVE its melody and its catchy tune but I do NOT understd what is been sung.

    Pls. enlightened me.
    Thank you.

  14. Hi Tim,music lovers,retirees,

    I am still waiting for your reply. Appreciate very much if you write to me at email address at sfc0007@yahoo.com.sg or at this pg. whichever is more convenient for you.

    I love to listen to certain traditional and pop Thai songs and music by China dolls and Bird Thongchai Mc. Intyre ( a mixed Thai high popular singer among the young and the old)favourites like Bocelli,Italian serenades or operas by Pavarotti, Julio Igleasias, Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals ,oldies Canton pops anda host of other Latin songs and music by Sand pipers and Los Machucambos , English oldies and NOT forgetting our SHC D and D speciality of the night a dance performed by our very OWN SPORTING TERENCE on his SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER….

    I guess Terence is practising very hard QUIETLY daily so as not to disappoint his SHC members .

    Right Terence ?

    Sorry putting more “pressure” on you.

    Steven Chan ( Music/Dog/Garden lover and a RETIREE enjoying his “Golden retirement MOments” right now. )

    Appreciate very much if ANY of you could write to me at email address at sfc0007@yahoo.com.sg to SHARE similar interests.

    Thank you.

  15. Steven, so you’ve knighted ah bo as Bo Zhi. Well, let’s see.

    The clock says we all hv the same time – 24 hours a day. I’ll sell you my clock if yours gives you less time. Ultimately. it’s how you plan & use yr time.

    Yes, I hv retired fr catching spiders; in fact, you can hardly find them these days….pity the kids.

    I’ll be going to the D&D. You said “Would lie to meet a “SURREAL” guy like you.”. Why wd you lie (down) to meet a guy who isnt a gay?

    Cant remember too much of that Hokkien song “jiu kang tan buay bor” but think basically it seeks to motivate, to revive one’s sagging spirits.

    That Bocelli which inspired me to adopt its name as my nick cant sing, serenade or do anythg meaningful at an opera – it’s a race horse. Not Latin or Italian but a Aussie thoroughbred.

    Looking forward to meeting you but pls take care & if you catch the fever on Saturday Night then there’ll be no fun.

    Well, let’s see.
    Take it as a joke.Ok ?
    ( No offence meant.)
    since you are a “great” joker so I choose to joke along with you.

    The clock says we all hv the same time – 24 hours a day. I’ll sell you my clock if yours gives you less time. Ultimately. it’s how you plan & use yr time (???)

    ( What had that to do with me ??? I am puzzled.
    (I am very busy too even though I had retired.)

    Yes, I hv retired fr catching spiders;?? ( your hobby? ) in fact, you can hardly find them these days….pity the kids.( Man destroy the environment,spiders either die or run away before Ah Tim catches them for dinner.

    I’ll be going to the D&D. You said “Would lie to meet a “SURREAL” guy like you.”. Why wd you lie (down) to meet a guy who isnt a gay?
    ( V. sorry typo error LIKE NOT lie ) .

    ( I am curious to know such a mysterious joker like you because of the way you write,comical and fun-like posting of comments which kept our SHC website ALIVE and KICKING.

    We need more jokers like you to SPICE up SHC.
    What is your opinion Tim ?

    Cant remember too much of that Hokkien song “jiu kang tan buay bor” but think basically it seeks to motivate, to revive one’s sagging spirits.( thank you for your expln of beer bottles??)

    That Bocelli which inspired me to adopt its name as my nick?(apa makna nya- nick you mean mouth can’t sing ??) cant sing, serenade or do anythg meaningful at an opera – it’s a race horse.???( I don’t get you. ) Not Latin or Italian but a Aussie thoroughbred.?????

    Looking forward to meeting you but pls take care & if you catch the fever on Saturday Night then there’ll be no fun.

    ( Not to worry, I am fit as a fiddle as I am very health conscious.)

    Thanks again and Appreciate your comment.
    Steven

  17. After calling ah liu a b-z, you want him to see it as a joke which means he shd laugh..and when laughing means happiness, you want him to be happy that you call him a b-z huh? Steven, you very the steady, man.

    Haha, if i was offended, you think i still reply to you so nicely meh………….i’ll only reward you with knn, tgl & ggf. So no worry, butty.

    (Incidentally, that special one (not chelsea’s jose morinho)who wanted an apollo gee ride has been sending ah liu love sms, tempting him with 1 word too humsup to use here. Heeee, what a sweetie…………..)

    My opinion? Over the years, we must have had carried enough baggges to now leave some behind even if we cant discard all. How many more 45 years can be ahead of us? So if we cant share meaningfully with each other, trust we shd at least share some laughs.

    tim/ah bo

  18. Thanks for your PROMPT reply.

    V.Good. Ah Tim,
    I am very happy that you took it in the right light regarding our comments cum jokes.

    I was INFLUENCED by the way you wrote and so I coined your Bocelli name as b-z.

    So if we can’t share meaningfully with each other, trust we shd at least share some laughs.

    (I totally AGREED with you.)

    (After all laughter is the BEST medicine. In India, there have many “LAUGHING CLUBS” but in Spore, some people here are TOO STRESSED to LAUGH or even SMILE. Agreed ?

    Steven

    Btw what does knn, tgl & ggf mean ?

    African lingo ???

    Steven

  19. It’s amazing how, in good company, even bad words can become Dos & Donts on good bahaviour. So knn, tgl & ggf mean these :

    1. Dont “Keep Nagging Nonstop”

    2. Learn “To Grumble Less”

    3. Do “Give Generously, Freely”

  20. Hahaha, Terence, the last time I showed you where 1 of my many moles is. The next time, I’ll show you the best of my moles which is on the tip of my thumb.

  21. Tim Liu says…..comment 20 … Dont “Keep Nagging Nonstop” (knn).

    I see now Tim is getting “heated” up inside him after all.

    No wonder they
    say “Fait The Yow Four” translate in Cantonese.

    Tim,COOOOOOL…down yourself man by expelling all your heat during our SHC D and Dance night . Remember the popular oldies song ” All Night Long.”by Stevie Wonder.

    Steven

  22. Pray tell, how can I ever make Steven happy? If he wants the last silverhair on my head, I’ll give it to him; if he wants goldenhairs, I’ll talk to Henry for him.

    What does he try to tell us with “Fait The Yow Four”?

    Ok, knowing that he can be easily upset, will f-ing all the Four in the Yow family make him happy? If so, it’s Fait Accompli.

    Stevie Wonder? Sure, Steven does make me wonder……….

  24. Hi all,

    I am very happy finally to meet who is Tim Liu Bocelli is and several others SHC NEW members who are interested in travelling,dance,travel ,garden,cycling and pet lovers.

    Tim indeed can sing very well in his Hokkien song and was very sporting as well.

    Thanks to Terence and the SHC party D and D committee who had put lots of effort and time to launch this very Successful Event.

    I strongly believed everyone of us was having a FUN time and it helps to bring back the beautiful memories of our “younger”days and the popular song

    ” Turn Back the Clock”

    I am also looking forward to our next D and D 2008.

    Is it an Annual Affair?
