My Two Angels



Oi Bek and Lely made it all possible - and easy. These two former students of mine sponsored my trip down memory lane in Singapore with a car, chauffeur and yummy comestibles. My spouse and brother were also beneficiaries of their unstinting generosity and warmth.



We have known each other since way back when.
FROM THEN

Thank you girls. At 60 plus (for all three of us) time and tide has almost passed us by and unforgettable days and adventures are few and far between. But you gave us that day - one we shall never, ever forget.

  5. Once upon a time there was a tavern
    Where we used to raise a glass or two
    Remember how we laughed away the hours
    And dreamed of all the great things we would do

    Those were the days my friend
    We thought they'd never end
    We'd sing and dance forever and a day
    We'd live the life we choose
    We'd fight and never lose
    For we were young and sure to have our way.

    Through the door there came familiar laughter
    I saw your face and heard you call my name
    Oh my friend we're older but no wiser
    For in our hearts the dreams are still the same

    Those were the days my friend
    We thought they'd never end
    We'd sing and dance forever and a day
    We'd live the life we choose
    We'd fight and never lose
    For we were young and sure to have our way.
