The man himself

We had a surprise visitor at yesterday's meeting. Pr Chua turned up, much to our delight. I actually saw him drive up and park in front of me, and for a while I froze, as I always do in the presence of authoritative figures.

But, as it turned out, he does his rounds of the various cell groups occasionally. We had a good turnout -- I counted 13 adults and quite a few kids -- and while everyone was in their best behaviour, the meeting was relatively formal. The jokes, however, still flew. It is always fun when Lih Juin, Peter, Pam and Xiao Meng are there.

Pr Chua was a wonderful guitar player, and he stayed in the background, not leading the meeting, which I think was so professional of him. Chris, as usual, was his eloquent self, and while he turned it into one of sharing, I was so glad he did not pick me to say anything!

Anyway, the kids also had fun -- Kin Kit clicks so wonderfully with SJ -- and they also enjoyed Pam's hot dog buns. I think there weren't enough to go around too (and KK later told me in the car that they were so delicious he had four! Oops!)
