I've got red-hair, so when someone sees me--please stand up and yell so I'll know which group to join.

Be there around 7ish.

Oh, good. I was afraid another person was going to drop out. I should be around 7:30. I'm pretty unspecific apart from my accent what probably not shows up when I walk around

I will try to look for you.

I'll most probably be a bit late...after 8ish (you've been warned so you can't invoke 'Filipino' time on me. I'm really punctual. Honest). I just can't get away from work early...ish. I'll SMS SMS when en route.
So, I'll just look for a red-haired lady and a short Steve Austin.

Just hold in front of you the current issue of the bird cage liner with its name moderated out with a dark red marker.

Just listen carefully. I guarantee that you will recognise SMS by his voice alone - even if you've never actually heard him before.

I'm glad I spotted the botak ang moh! It was nice to finally put faces to the names here.
I wonder whether any of you guys are still there.
Just posting before calling it a night...

Im sure they're still there! SMS and KSL will close the joint down as usual I'm sure. Sorry I had to leave early. I was feeling bushed. Pleasure to see y'all again.

We're still here actually. And no, ksl did not lose his bag. He didn't even have alcohol.

Home safe and sound. None the worse for wear. Daughter and her fiance just came home as well.Senoko time will come early in a couple of hours. Great gathering tonight.Pplanning another in October so JR8 can find a way to crawfish out of it.

and ksl left stone cold sober this time. It was me, Nak, ecureilx & Ev-D who shut it down around 2.30. Another good night was had by all attendees.
Next one planned in October sometime..... to be announced...

If I can have just one request, please make it after October 8 so that I can fly back in time for the next gathering.

Thanks for a pleasant evening, it was nice to meet all the other people, I left around 12.30 as my will power to stay on the wagon was weakening rather quickly at that time, I knew I wasn't going to last much longer, so it was a good move on my part to go home and keep to my weightloss plan, with luck I'll have met my target by October for the last time!
