Dear classmates,

Dear Mui Sin (Pete Lo has joined the private chat)

(Danny's responses)

Well HELLO HENRY !!
Its great to get an email from you directly!! Hope we'll get more entertaining emails like this one from you :-) !! I guess my imitation of your mum calling you worked !!


My boss is now asleep and it is email time. Are we in the month of June? 2 more months to being 16 again!!! Where have you been all these years Henry??

Kim Nyen, I hope your Daddy's car can hold everyone, I don't think we are that petite anymore. Those Rojak and Mee Soup can really do the shocks in. Guys and Gals, how about some 25 cents Red Bean Soup at midnight in Tanjung Aru Beach like we used to do? Did you say $2.50 now? What year is this? Is Mrs. Liew's tuckshop is cheaper? Wanna meet me there Harold?

Mui Sin, Obviously you don't know what the politicians did to your
turf!!

You must go back and see for yourself!! Maybe you'll vote the opposition.

Su Kiong, if you need a guarantee that Siew Mee still look good in Mini Skirts, I have 2 pictures in prime condition taken in 1973 just for you. However, if money is the issue, don't worry, Peter have a foolproof plan for us to corner the global Belachan market. I will trample fermented krill day and night if it need be.. don't let me down,
Peter.

Will try to make it rain from the skies, Henry. I'm told miracles do happen.

(Danny's response)
Help!! At the risk of offending someone, but who is Siew Mee?


Danny, sorry I lost my 1st email to everyone but the story is I have a dead end career, my Visa is extended and I 'm going to party at the reunion. Please don't start those rumours as you soon know why.

My millionaire friends tell me the same sob story all the time.

(Danny's responses)
I have 2 emails from you which Peter Lo copied me in on and another which Steuart copied - this is the 1st where I've been included directly!! I'll cc you in when I copy Willy & Herald in, but no worries if they aren't the ones you refer to.

Are you telling me that no one feeds you bullshit about 'if you sweat it out & really prove yourself, you'll get this and that promotion' ?? And you can just do the regulation hours and conserve your energies for something else outside of the day-job, and still get a pay-cheque at the end of the month?? Sounds pretty cushy to me!! You must have heard about the guy who started the chain of McDonalds restaurants at the age of 50, with no previous attempts before?? So go for it guy!!

I do admire Herald and Emily for what they have achieved - so good luck to you (& them off course). I'm not sure what you mean by your Visa extension, but its great that you're looking to have a good time @ the reunion. Hey, no malice nor rumours intended - just don't know when to stop kidding!!


Pauline, my ears must be full of BELACHAN when you said your Hubby is a kind and classy gentleman who likes to wear Satay suit with Black Belt. Thanks for spelling out in your email that he's into Karate with Black
Belt.

I thought Pauline whispered "wear Satay Satin and Black Belt Boots
tonight".

Opps! Back to peeling potatoes,
Lucky Devil, Henry - you lead a charmed life. I'm going back to cleaning public toilets - In case I want to go for my Datukship one day, you know.

(Danny's response)
Boss woke up huh, you joker !!


P/S did you see that shot I included of you playing "Butterfly" on your 12 string organ at Tanjung Aru? Magic! I always kept that photo because you taught me the Rolling Stones number "Angie" which I was able to impress some dolly bird later on. Thanks Henry.


(Danny's responses)
Okay, Pete!! We expect a repeat performance for the reunion, okay!!


Mui Sin

TTFN, Pete Lo

cheers – Danny
