Deepavali themed meeting on 9th November 2010

It was a Deepavali themed meeting and most came dressed in their best sarees and dhotis. Only 11 of us turn up. Regular members like Soo Guan, Kay Ku, Dr Subhassh, Harold, Capt Khalid, Valentine, Chandran, Amy Siew, Kat, Stephen Francis, G T Singam, Robert and Chua Eu Chieh were missing.

We started by lighting up the special kolam created by TM Kala.

It was a great meeting. No doubt, we had a small turnout but the meeting went on well. We all went home happy and satisfied. The small crowd puts less pressure on every one, especially during tabletopics. Nobody complain. All went home smiling.
