I'm exposing my 'kedekut' self munching away Walkers' cheese&onion all by myself while reading (&chuckling) your blog, without the slightest guilt for not offering this bumper pack to those deprived collegues. <BR/><BR/>yes, over lunch (thank you again!!! tasted the same even after 11 years!) you asked about my 'plans' to work 'there'. i gave candid excuses about $$$, income tax, cost-of-living and other material disadvantages. however, reading your lovely piece made me realize the underlying hesitance for such a "move". Given the choice, it's everything about being 'there' for "them". <BR/>Thank you Aunt, for that 'reminder'.<BR/><BR/>p/s : deciphering Rayyan's blabber this morning before leaving home : "nak go out, nak naik plane, nak nana", then he hopped & ran in circles a few times.. that must be hyde park.<BR/><BR/>love to you both from us.nwarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05348129124283899094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-15368860718503368272008-02-10T07:21:00.000+00:002008-02-10T07:21:00.000+00:00yes he did ---hehe - but i thought you knew robert...yes he did ---hehe - but i thought you knew robert redford!! haha! take care where ever you are.Kak Tehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00856864485917633260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-4124184093608081282008-02-09T15:00:00.000+00:002008-02-09T15:00:00.000+00:00wow, AG really made waves.

We are proud at the way GUITs take off here and the recognition given to Wan and the lady behind the successful man. Managed to catch almost all the write ups and Galeri Perdana episodes on GUITs. GUITs managed to touch so many people from Terengganu now, from ordinary people to politicans and Royals. Looking forward for GUITs part 2. <BR/><BR/>Please keep up the good work and wish both of you higher success always.jaflamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11041838115933471511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-7774503483228217312008-02-04T17:47:00.000+00:002008-02-04T17:47:00.000+00:00theta, thanks for the kind words.
