Lunch on Dec 27, 2009 with Pik Ha

It was another rejoicing gathering in Lei Garden restauraunt-Shatin on 27 Dec 2009. June(Kan P.H.) came back Hong Kong with her beloved Alwin Wu. NaiNai, Mice, Sau Wah & me happened to have the younger generations present as well together with us.

We are very glad to see June came back as we missed her long time. June showed us an album with descriptions here & there explaining the pictures. The pictures are of our China's Treasures- the Pandas. June's family has spent lots of efforts in dealing with the pandas and finally a book is made for them. Alwin also told us something about the Panda which we in our normal life will not notice, but that relates very much to the continuation of the species of Panda ever exist again.

Sau Wah reported that Marrow (Mak H S) cannot come because it is difficult for him to sit.
We all showed our concern on him, and June suggested that Marrow may need a thorough checking in order to establish a better treatment. Benjamin (Mice' eldest son) told us some knowledge on how to cure vital diseases in this medical information overflow environment, yet the Nobel winners are still staying at the stage of knowing how to cure, and not yet really done. The medical issues seemed to be hot topic, and we turned around to H1N1, the Swine Flu. Alwin suggested that the second wave in Western World has completed, now waiting for the 3rd wave. But the second wave in Hong Kong has not yet come. Basically it must come. So it is suggested that the injection as a precautionary measure is important, though the maximum level of protection is only 90%(may not be 100%), and that it only has medical effect for 4 - 6 months, and then a second injection thereafter is also suggested.

As this is Christmas time, and we longed to see Santa Claus. This is our hope since we were nine or ten or even smaller. Not until today, Santa Claus really came to town. Ma Sir was so generous that he distributed gifts to all of us, without our knowing in earlier stage.
In fact Ma Sir has hinted that he was Santa Claus in our last gathering with Raymond that Sau Wah, Raymond & me were so lucky to have the gifts received in first hand from him.

We all enjoyed to have such a warm Christmas.
