Message from Mr. Ma

Dear All,

Got the card and 5 photos on your recent activities from Tin Sung.

I thank Tin Sung, Wing On, See Chun, Kwun Lap, Chau Tan, Wai Lai, Koon Tai, Ka Cheung, Pik Ha, Ka Lui, Woon Yee, and Tan Chi who signed the card and said nice words in the card. And especially to Tin Sung who had to arrange for the card and photos to be sent to me by post.

Also I would like to thank Pik Ha who made a point of mentioning me in her recent mail of 3 Sept sent from Canada to her Hong Kong schoolmates. I must say I'm very glad that I'd taken those black and white schoolday photos to catch the moments of your childhhood days.

Just wish to take this opportunity to thank Wing On who had arranged for me to be included in this mailing list thus enabling me to share your communications and the fun.

It really feels good to be able to maintain contact with you all and talk to you like this after so many years.

In 1964 I was about double your age at 24. Still a young and inexperienced teacher. By now I'm aged 67 and living a simple retirement life.

Ma Kai Woon

Message from Pik Ha

Dear All,

I am just back in Toronto and have gone through the mails and photos. Thanks so much for your hospitality and the joyful evening full of laughters and treasurable memories. Our childhood mischief and fun were never-
ending tales told a hundred times, each time with some fragments added to the big picture.

Thanks to Tomson's sweet remarks on us girls, which are always pleasant to the ears. But I must admit we do have traces of the years on the face. Fortunately we have exchanged youth with lots of life experience and
perhaps a little more wisdom.

I had the chance of talking to Mr Ma on the phone one evening. He sounded great, with clear voice and his usual gentle caring tone. He leads a very healthy life style and swims everyday and walks with Mrs Ma in the
more spacious neighbourhood in Sai Kung. I thanked him for taking the black and white photos for us in TPS.

To Nainai: I went to City Hall, but found out the tickets for all the shows of "For You are with Me 1/4 Centuary" were sold out. Anyway I read the book some years ago. The characters were in our class/year. Also I am happy
to be able to dig out my TPS P6 certificate but regretfully not the memory book like yours which is so valueable after 1/2 a centuary!

Thanks to Ka Liu, Won Yee and Chau Don and others who travelled a long way from NT to TST for the evening. For those I missed this visit, I look forward to seeing you next time. While in HK I was lucky to have many
good days with clear blue sky and bright moon up there over Victoria Habour...


My best wishes
Pik Ha
