The only time we can conveniently meet up with our ex-colleagues and friends is on Fridays. On Fridays, they can relax and enjoy longer lunch without having to rush back to their office. The venue was fixed. The retirees reached earlier and the table was set for 7 people.
While waiting for the food to be served, a group photo for the album.
We were each holding a mug of lemon tea.
3 lovely ladies to complete the picture.
And then a wider view to include 6 lovely ladies.
Soup of the Day.
Grilled spare ribs for me.
1 cheese cake to share and taste.
1 apple crumble with ice cream to share and taste.
Smile for the camera before we taste the sweet desserts.
At the end of our lunch, we had a birthday blessing for someone.
Can you guess whose birthday?

When a man makes a jar out of clay, doesn't he have a right
to use the same lump of clay to make one jar beautiful,
to be used for holding flowers,
and another to throw garbage into?
