We shall have a Men’s night on Tues, 7 May 2013, from 1830 to 2100 hrs.  We are in the process of confirming the venue, and shall let you know within a week.  To the members who have come up with ideas on the venue, thank you.

men's night

Our aim is to have a regular place, once every two months when SHC men can pop in and get to know one another.  If the venue is suitable, we shall carry on with the place.  There will be no formalities. The Men’s night will usually be held on a weekday.  We will develop this event as we go along.

In all likelihood, we will not plan for food or drinks. Men will buy their own drinks and pay for the drinks as they are served.  This is to avoid complications of bill splitting.  Let’s make this a habit and procedure.

Please note the date, and I shall announce the venue soon.  Thank you.

  1. I have been trying to find a suitable place to have the Men’s night. We had a lot of recommendations, but i am unable to ascertain its suitability as I have been out of the country for the last one month.

    For many reasons, the preference is for a location which is where the MRT is located. We will keep looking,

    For the Men’s night, Tues 7 May 2013, we will hold it at:

    313 @ Somerset,
    Food Republic on Orchard Road.
    Exact sitting location would be between Toast Box and Soup Guru.
    Time: 1830 to 2100 hrs.

    There is plenty of sitting room, and Men members can buy their own drinks or food. This will be a starter activity, Please bring along your name tag or a sticky label with your name on it.

    Please indicate your coming.

    Strictly a Men’s night.

  2. A few days ago, I sent out a message to a few members to come and join the men’s night. I also encourage some of the ladies to get their men friends to come and join the men’s chat.

    Here are the first few responses.
    * I see. No ladies. Boring!
    * How about a ladies’ club?
    * When is women’s night?
    * good idea to gather men once a while, I will have to miss this round as I will be out of Town from May 2nd to 10th. See you around soon.

  3. As this is the first time this year, that we are having a men’s night, we wont take registration. Just turn up. Let’s see if we will get a surprise.

    See u guys on Tues 7 May.

  4. In my view, Club gatherings should be in a place where there is a little privacy for members. Meeting in an open area defeats the purpose of being involved in a close group and its akin to meeting at a McDonalds. Terence, please check out the Seamen’s Club along Cantonment Road.

  5. I will be there. Have set ALARM on my phone to remind.
    313 is a good location, in terms of space, lighting, temperature, variety (food) and convenience (transport). I often chat there with a group of friends. There are many seats so no worry that somebody will chase you away. Just ignore the occasional stares from the cleaners if you sit for 3 hours with a kopi or plain water.

  6. Thank you guys. I look forward to seeing you at 313 @ Somerset. We can talk our own things there. We can also talk about the girls too. And, anything we man chat about. Daniel, I too shall set my alarm, make sure I collect my ticket to come back from KL.

    Edwin brought up a point, that we should have some privacy in our gatherings. I too like the idea. Most establishments require the organisers to fix the number of pax as well as a fixed package rate. Unfortunately, as you can see here, very few people can commit that they are coming, because of various reasons, work and commitments being a few reasons.

    This explains why we usual land up at a venue where we can walk in, buy whatever drinks and food we like. Yes, it may be noiser and less private, it’s something we learn from previous gatherings. Many of you have also tried adhoc gatherings; but …. If you have a solution to this, please speak up.

  9. We had our men’s night recently at 313 @ Somerset. The rain and the traffic had prevented some members from coming to the event. For those who came, the discussions were varied, and we will plan another one in June. Keep in touch.

  10. Indeed, Terence. A very wet PIE during dinner time had caused massive choking and indigestion to many motorists. No fun being one of those “gluttons”. My apology for skipping the Men’s night.
