bELATED pOSTING

Last week this time, I was back in Singapore, and it was indeed one eventful weekend. Started with a mad rush from office to the airport. I mean, I hinted to my boss a couple of times that I was catching a 2000hr flight, but he was still pondering over the issues, when I stood in his office, and minutes rushing by. I asked for the time, and he replied 1830hrs. I mean, Hong Kong is small, but not soooo small!!! So when I finally managed to squeeze out an answer (to the issue I was discussing with him), I FLED the office at 1850hr. 80 mins before the plane takes off......I made it, just two mins before the official cut-off time....But impossiby, my flight back home was delayed again. So my amazing dash from office to airport was completely in vain. Anyway...I settled early into the plane, and made a point to "preorder" my double servings of dinner...(hehehe). Three and a half hours away, my wife awaits...

The sight of my wife took my breathe away. Is it her hair? Is it her dressing? Is it? Is it? Who cares...all I know is that she is physically in front of me...and we are off to a midnight rendevous. Yes, a first proper outing since months!!!

Alright, the thought and adrenalin rush lasted a good fifteen minutes. We settled nicely into our car, and drove down ECP, before I blurted out:" We are certainly the most clueless couple at the moment. All raring to go...but dunno where to go!!!"

Survival instinct kicked in, and we finally told ourselves...Clarke Quau should not be too bad a place still, for us to go. Oh well, it was certainly a fabulous night...my flight reached at think 1.00am, and we went on to the PUMP for a drink, before rounding off the night with hot (hang-on...your thoughts) chocolate (only).

Short but sweetest night...
