@ Joan: As your kindness as well, I think you will also give us promotion both on Thursday and Saturday ha ?!?
@ expat admins: would u plz help us to change the title one more time into "meet-up on Thurs & Sat", many thanks with great big hug & kixx :p
I'm ok on thursday ^_^.
Bechum, I have one suggestion for our group. Why dont we do charity at weekend so that our members can understand more about each others and do good things for community ? ( or a picnic at weekend near HCM city ....? )
I am going to go to Tra Vinh to do charity with others friends on Saturday so that I can't come back on time to join in our meet-up.
Best regards,
Kim Ngan
