The night my daughter was to arrive from New Zealand – Saturday, 13th November, 2010, Mandy, my very dear friend from our years on national radio, picked me up at the hotel in KL and drove me all the way to check in at the Concorde Inn KLIA. Zee, another dear friend from the “radio family”, was so nice as to take her time off to tag along…

…and Zul, yet another friend from the same gang, joined us at the hotel and we made our way to the KLIA to wait for the flight to arrive.
I am never a fan of the stuff they sell at those fast food franchises but we had not had dinner and it was almost time for the plane from Auckland to land, so we decided to just have a bite to eat at the Burger King outlet which is located near the international arrival gate at the KLIA…
I had the double cheese…
…which tasted…like a burger…
…and there were side orders of fries…
…and onion rings…
…as well as two boxes of chicken nuggets.
I also ordered a Swiss mushroom double cheese for Melissa just in case she was hungry after the long flight…and she had that for supper later in the hotel.
If I’m not mistaken, it was Mandy and Zul who picked up the tab for the orders, so thanks to the two of you for the treat…and thanks also to all three of you for coming along with me to the airport. Melissa was so delightfully pleased to see a “welcoming committee” there to welcome her home…instead of just me alone. It certainly meant a lot to her…as much as on 8th February earlier this year – the day when she left for New Zealand and Mandy and Zul were there too to bid her farewell.

I am indeed blessed to have friends like you all. Thank you from the bottom of my heart…
