SHC members are creative, knowledgeable, fun and out of this world. We have all reached a stage when some of us are entering the second phase of their lives. Still for some, the adventure starts at the third stage. But, there are plenty of things we want to do. We want to climb trees. We want to travel to places we have never been to. To Ho Chinh Minh, to Bandung. To Taiwan. To ….. We want to get out of the four walls. All these 30 years, we have been working.
We want to cycle all over the island, and to places other cyclists have been to. We want to pick up dancing, and dance all night. Gosh, there is no end. And, we always tell ourselves, we need to start somewhere.
SHC, on its own, does not organise any activity. It is purely a platform whereby SilverHairs get to meet new friends. Activities are always, as a result, of these gatherings. Activities are also the result of initiatives of members. Membership is simple. It is also lifetime; and all members are encouraged to organise at least one activity during the life of their membership.
Back to Porn night. I like to dream. Of course, share the dream with you too. This time around, I have been thinking that a Porn night will work for us. We are all over 45. Nothing too shy to discuss and nothing too inhibitive to consider such ideas as absurd, vulgar and distasteful. We open our minds and our ears. We see and we participate. Why not?
We all know what is a porn magazine. There are porn websites. Some are free, and others are pay-to-view. There are sex shops, that sell exciting things like used underwears and used condoms. Our kids are equally exposed to porn. My 11-year old son is now asking me, "Pa, come and have a look". So, much about porn.
If we open our minds, and if we have a Porn night, what and how do you think this event will be like? I think Nov and Dec are tempting months. Let’s go for it.

Hi guys and gals;
I fully agree for any meet should have a/ agendas – so that those attending knows / prepares for it – more concrete results can be seen. After the "serious agenda meeting " – then all can let their hair down to enjoy themselves as per normal !
Such first meet must – as suggested have a committee formed – a member as the main co-ordinator ( MCO ) for a particular activity. MCO will invite other members to assist him/her in planning / organising the activity.
Are we allowed as a non-registered club to have such a set-up ??? Someone needs to check on this ! Other than that I am most willing to step forward and be counted on to be one of the committee!
Cheers – have nice days ahead
Regards : Fong Fong ( tenmeng@gmail.com.sg )

Let the joy of doing a pleasant activity be there always…….
Till then…. stay Cool! Be Cool! 
The Walk EO Team:
Charles Wee, Veronica Wong, Mary Tan & Jeffrey Lim, Joyce Tan, Serene Low, Conrad Tang and me, ChristinaCL Chan,,,, signing off,,,,,,,
Most of us are glad to be a member at the Silverhairs Club and appreciate what Terence has done in providing a platform for us to meet. So far Terence has suggested and introduce many activities and carry it through in the last few years. As member we are happy to be part of this and look forward to more participation to come.
Is there something we could do or suggest to bring the club to the next level? Out of this Club many smaller groups are formed and they in turn meet up privately and persue their common interest.
The September meeting will be different from what we had previously. Live singing by Jeffrey Gan on the keyboard and karoeke singing where member brings their own cd wll be the happenings of the day! Board and card games will also be encourage where member can look for other member sharing similar interest.
I would like to see more participation from member, how about meeting up and have a time where various member can share their thought and mission in life, something in line with Toastmaster International. Having our meeting in Han’s may not provide the privacy needed in such sharing by public speaking. We need to find a place more enclosed for such.
We all come from various background, there will be something exciting to share. Having to make comment on the post may be prohibiting as certain topic may be sensitive. When we meet and listen to fellow member share their goals and ideal in life, a certain bond are created.
Volunteers will be ask to share something about their life that is memorable and enriching. Do you know that I have tried bungee jumping just because I was trying to get someone’s attention. Oh, there are so much to share and talk about.
It may be just meeting up and sharing each other profile and ideal in life. So, fellow member come to this September gathering. I would want to try something out where we allocate a time frame for each of us to speak out and suggest what they want to see happening in this unigue Club! So many thing I would want to share, my life, my passion and motivation in life and of course some of you may want to share too. Let’s hear from you?

Dear folks.
Some of you may have received an email from me seeking financial help as I am stranded in London. This is a scam, please dun reply at all.
I have reported to Google Mail and they are doing an investigation now. I hope to have my password reset. Please bear with me.
Look like I won’t be able to salvage my old email account.
Kindly note my new email address ‘danhuang7728@gmail.com’.

For many many months, I do receive emails asking me to join FaceBook, not from unknown people, but from people I know. My immediate reaction is to look for the “Delete” button. I do have a FaceBook account, but it is very dormant.
I read an article recently that Facebook is the world’s biggest community. You can be sure of finding your long lost friend. Must be a great way to find where your old classmates are. I am still not willing to spend time on FaceBook; because it can be very contagious and infectious. Afraid I might spend too much time on it.
Well, some SHCians are FaceBook members; and they swear by the book that they get to find new friends and old ones, not just in Singapore; but across oceans. But, the fact that it is also the biggest country in the world makes me feel that I should at least look at it. What is FaceBook and why telcos and corporationis are jumping to have a presence in Facebook.
For those who are already in Facebook, please share why FaceBook is something good for guys and girls like us. What are the benefits, and whyI should spend some time on it. Should we be encouraged to have an account.
Please do not copy and paste from somewhere. We should hear from your personal experience. And I was thinking that one day some of us, with Facebook experience, can give a talk on the biggest community in the world.

Those who have name tag – PLEASE bring along and wear it throughout the event.
When I was about 18 years old, I use to go camping at Changi Beach just behind where the British Army had a Survival School. behind the school, this stretch of beach was quite secluded. Sometimes we would organize Beach Parties there. By about 2 am, after most of the guests have gone home, a few of us guys would go ‘skinny dipping’. The few girls that were still there would pretend not to watch when we strip but after we get into the water they would shout comments at us from the beach. I still remember 2 comments even up till today.
I am organizing our August monthly meeting at Palawan Beach, Santosa. It will be a Beach Party, but we will not go ‘skinny dipping’ because at our age, I think we will look gross. Even the police would not want us in their station. They will put us straight into the lunatic asylum. I know this will not stop some of you from doing it.
My friend who owns Samudar Indian Restaurant at Palawan beach in Santosa has agreed to let us use the Restaurant on Saturday 21st August. The restaurant has an alfresco dining area and an aircon dining hall. It can accommodate 200 people. There are showers on the beach in front of the restaurant and changing facilities nearby.
We will start the party at 3pm. You can swim, play with balls, build sand castle or just enjoy the sea breeze. I need volunteers to organize a few beach games. For those who prefer to stay indoor, you can relax and talk or play board games. At 7 pm we will have Indian Buffet. The alfresco dining area which is on a wooden deck and the aircon dinning hall are both very suitable for dancing. You can dance anywhere at any time. You can also do it at the beach but we have to organize sound system outside. You can also pretend to be a teenager on your first date and bring a partner to the bush….there are many dark bushes but tissues are not provided. If you want to sing KOK we have to organize our own portable system because the Restaurant have no KOK licence. We leave the Restaurant at 10pm but you can stay at the beach as long as you like.
Public transport to Palawan Beach is by LRT from VIVO City. It cost $3. Those who drive, pay $7 per car regardless of the number of passengers. The buffet would cost $20 per head. We will provide tit-bits from the collection of $5 each from those who pay after 31st July. Those of us who are there in the afternoon should at least buy a drink from the Restaurant to help them pay their staff who would serve you.The restaurant would waive corkage charge for alcoholic drinks we bring. But please don’t bring any other outside food or drinks into their Restaurant.
Dress code will be ‘as little as possible’. Opportunity for you to show your legs, tummy and butts, if they are still presentable. I will bring some fig leaves for those who want to be like Adam and Eve.
Now I need the following volunteers
Make your payment to Karen Thio POSB Savings Account number 121-86818-0
Payment before 1st August is $20. From 1st August please pay $25. The last payment accepted is 17th 19th August.

Weiwei Members,
Jetstar airticket return to Haikou is about $130 inclusive of 20kg baggage. M thinking of going there 4 for short holi for relaxing time. No intention of going towards to places, like Sanya, Xin Long or Dong Hai as been there too many times. Just will be enjoying the scenic places around in Haikou, massage, reflexology, shopping, etc etc… For these, I think 5-days holi would be just nice lor.. anyone 1 2 come along wif me.
Of cos, for those thinking of going for a longer days to explore further south, you can do so at your own. I can try to get our Haikou fren to scout a reasonable tour package for you lor..
This post will be closed for further comments.
Cheers…Dolly

We’ll begin with a 20-25mins warming up walk at the Hindhede Nature Park where you get to view the quarry pool before we confront the steep slope. But fret not, we’ll reach Kruing Hut in about 4-5mins and followed by a gentle slope all the way up to summit hut, 163.63 metres above sea level.
The trail on way down will take you much closer to the nature, come with your most powerful torch to find out what’s hiding in the cave….
End of walk, pamper yourself at Beauty World Plaza for some foods & refreshments, or, go to the row of restaurants along Cheong Chin Nam Rd. Some of you may prefer the famous kopi-o at B.Timah food centre a stone throw away.

Very soon, we will be celebrating Singapore National Day 2010. For many of us, we have lived on this island for more than 45 years. We have grown, and so have our children, siblings, friends and relatives. As we get older, we develop fond memories of the old Singapore. We have also learnt to love Singapore.
I have picked an old National Day song and movie clip to show on our website banner, and I hope you enjoy it. Feel free to say or sing your thoughts on Singapore.

Now, back to my cranky thoughts. We have discussed a number of ideas, something for our retirement days. In line with the Blue Helmet concept, I am beginning to think that some of us can gather together to provide party services to the public – young and old. Something which I think we can do, even if we are over 45.
Singapore has a bigger population of high-end PRs and new citizens. Maybe more kids, more need to meet with fellow Singaporeans. Maybe more generous and open to kids parties. Singaporean families may be looking forward to bringing their kids friends together; and of course in a more relaxed mood. Maybe as a business, we can provide party services to them.
Then, there is the older generation in Singapore. I guess parties would be good. Not simply cooked food in the house. Maybe parties, at home or somewhere in a untouch spot in Singapore. Maybe, kids are looking at more than just going to a restaurant. A birthday party, an anniversary or even a family gathering. A different father’s day or even a celebration for good school results.
I dont have all the ideas and plans; but I guess for those who are interested, we can get together. Of course, some would like to be party organisers. Alot of work; but I think this is something suitable for the over 45s who are looking for some work, hopefully exciting and rewarding.
Broadly, I would think this party services would take in some SHCians in different roles.
If you are interested, please drop a comment here, saying what you would be interested in. Please do not email or sms me, as I prefer ideas to be shared.

We just had the D&D in July and would have the Beach Party soon at the end of August. It’s about time, we have the regular monthly gathering at Hans. For some, the excitement will be just being back from the kelong trip; for others, it will have been the National Day celebrations just over. And, for others, the fun will be the beach party at Sentosa.
Time to just meet up, chat, plan your activities, pay back the dues from the World Cup, or maybe think about some charity events before the end of the year. Maybe, how about making some money for retirement or better still do some planning for retirement. Starting a business, climbing Mount Everest, go to Bandung, ladies chit chat, going up to HK to meet Geraldine, or going to see Ben Foo in Ho Chi Minh city. Talk about the D&D or talk about the Prom night. The regular monthly meeting is just a great way to meet. What shall we do with the used pyjamas? Aiyah, no end. Plan and organise your hobbies group; meet and chat. Now, for the details.
