Missed out on this facet of life for the past 20-plus years, but in recent months have been experiencing it in waves.
Suppers with the guys, late-night KTV sessions, overnighters at chalets…the list just goes on and on and on.
Just last sunday-monday, went nuts at night after an over 20km trip on my ‘trusty’ bicycle with the squeaky brakes and rock-hard seat.

Too tired to cycle back after that, so it meant that I had to go pick up my bicycle, which I left at Ubi the previous night, and help to send the other bikes back to their respective owners, with zw’s lorry and reubs and kr riding shotgun.
That meant yet another night outing, cos we met at 12.30am tuesday morning, and returned the bikes before supper at Geylang Lor 15 before heading home at 3 plus.
Boy am I tired! But hey, here’s to more of such events!
