Hari Raya 2008

KL is not as traffic free as in previous years during major festivities. Maybe more people realize that it is better to remain in KL during such times. Maybe it's because a lot of people are working on Friday after a 2 days break on Wednesday and Thursday. More likely because prices of everything has gone up with this current facsimile of a banana republic government that we have.

We spent the first day of Raya cleaning up the new house in Denai Alam. Now it feels great to walk bare feet over the floors. Both upstairs and downstairs and the driveway was cleaned up. In fact it was so clean that Shirley's brother was hesitant to walk to the store room to get some putty to do up the Allan's house.

On the second day, Kuen Kuen managed to get 2 lanes for bowling at the Kiara Equestrian club. She brought along her son, Joel and daughter, Jolene (or was it Jolyn??). My game has gone to the dogs. But we had a good time chit chatting , eating and drinking during the games.

I think I need to frequent the lanes more often to bring my game back up to where it used to be during the HP days when I captained the company's team.
Sigh!

Hi! I played bowling last night too. Trying to improve on the game as well. Maybe when you next pop into Singapore, we can have a game. - Loony Looby
