Hello Everyone,
Today ....yes today ..is our gathering.  This is the first time we have gathering on Saturday and we hope the respond will be favourable.  Please give me some feed back or pm me . Maybe  we alternate each month ...Saturday and another month Sunday?.  After you get to know us....you may request to join our group chat in viber or wattsapp for other activities  we have. Some activities are by invitation only and not announce in forum as we need to  limit the number for certain activities /event.
Please proceed upstairs in Highland cafe today at 4pm. We have book the long tables. Regret to say ,I am not able to join the dinner and later night out as I need to go out of town. But we have a team to take everyone for dinner . So come and enjoy . See you soon.
Cheers,,,,Richard
