A friend and ex-colleague got married to her long-time boyfriend on 1 August. It was a simple wedding with gathering of family and friends and 2 of our mutuals friends' kids were the page boy and flower girl. I was the guardian for the flower girl. I was a little worried to be given such a delicate task. But all turned out alright. The ceremony began at Lady of Our Perpetual Succour Church followed by a reception at the SAF Yacht Club.
It was good to meet up with friends, old and current, to celebrate the new couple and to catch up on one another's lives. We discovered that no one had changed much over the years or perhaps when we got together, we just behaved like we used to in the past. We laughed and shared stories with one another freely. Somehow, the colleagues in FED during the early years are the best I have. Many of us feel the same way. It was a new department then and we sort of journeyed through the ups and downs together. Even though the six of us (Hui San, Karen, Sharol, Meng Yee and Pei Shang) only see one another monthly, the connection is still good. I wish we could all work in the same place again one day.

At the SAF Yacht Club. SAF Yacht Club is a beautiful place for romance - deserted location and near the sea. I think I will go back there with my hubby for dinner some day.
At end of reception. Meng Yee's purple and fuchsia gown was gorgeous.
Three of Karen's 4 lovely kids and she wants to produce more!!.But then who can blame her for falling in love with such lovely creatures.
