Dear Fellow Rotarians,
 
Last week we had a great and joyous turn up at the regular meeting!!!
Attendees included: PPs Fred, Peter, Maneiras, Ritchie, Choi, Stella, David, Ip, Keith and Rtns. Margaret, Kevin and Hon. Member Anabela and the last but not the least President KC and myself.
 
Some updates from Rtn. Margaret – she has been travelling around Europe, got herself a tanned due to all the walking and fresh air…..in brief, looking good!!!!!
 ;) winking;) winking=P~ drooling=P~ drooling
PP Peter also returned from his trip to Canada….at first I thought he went to Canada to celebrate his birthday but actually he hosted his daughter’s wedding!!! When he delivered his speech as the father of the bride, he gave a “FORMULA + TTS” so that the newly weds will have a longlasting marriage. According to PP Peter, his “FORMULA + TTS” represents the followings:
F – Forgive
O – Overlook
R – Respect
M – Mind
U – Understanding
L – Love
A – Accommodate
 +
T – Tolerate
T – Trust
S – Sacrifice
:x lovestruck:x lovestruck:x lovestruck:x lovestruck
 
After this, PP Peter and Pres. KC were worried that this “FORMULA + TTS” scared PP Choi into matrimony….:D big grin:D big grin which turned out that we some sort of have a theme for our forthcoming Annual Ball – “The Wedding”….will this be confirmed? Your voicing out during this Thursday meeting will be great plus it is a chance for you to know more about our Dental Project for the elderlies – how different it is from the other dental project provided by other Rotary Clubs in Macau!!!!!
