Ya, Karina was born on 14th June...60 years ago and what better way to celebrate the occasion..? Her children invited close friends and relatives for dinner at Grand Palce Ballroom. Food was good & plentiful; wine,beer & alcohol helped to make the dinner more like a bash..yes,a birthday bash. Plenty of dancing,good laughs & merry-making. I can safely say,everybody had a good time. The old & young,those who had bad aches be it their teeth or knees..they were on the floor. The 2 Marys were 'great entertainers': Mary Bajang & Mary of Bright Optic. I was probably one of the few people who did not make it to the dance floor because I was too busy clicking away..taking photos or else there won't be any to show to you people.

Catherine Apau gave an emo filled speech..sobbing in between & at the same time,heaping praises for Karina.

To Karina: May God Be With You throughout & many more birthdays to come.

Scratch & Win

Burswood Casino




For the benefit of Nicole Rodrigues,a mum of 3 now,residing in KL,used to 'jump' into my car to school,I am writing this posting in English. Angela told me that Nicole complained that Aunty Jenny's postings're mainly in Iban now...cannot read nor understand. OK Nicole,aunty will try to write more in English.
Burswood Casino..after the beer & food at "Little Creatures",Fremantle,we went to Burswood Casino to gamble with the 'bagful' or 'suitcase' full of money we brought in to Perth.We managed to escape from being detected by the authorities for bringing in more than AUD28,000/-. Ha..ha..that will be the day..I am just making up stories.(if the authorities had known how little money we had with us,they probably deported us..Ha..ha..) We walked through the casino and at the end of it,there was a cafe,where we ordered tea & coffee and sat there for a while. Maybe because it was a weekday,there was not that many gamblers seen at the casino. The casino at Genting looks more 'lively' or 'happening'. Did I see any VVIPs or VIPs at the casino?No,if there were, they were probably around in some exclusive behind closed door dens.

The name of the game is Scratch & Win.

On the last day of our stay in Perth,I decided to 'get rid' of my aussie coins and 'splashed' them on the game cards. Well, we scratched,scratched and scratched the cards but we did not win. We ended up scratching our heads & bottoms. Yours truly joined in the queue for the jackpot of AUD58m for several days. Each time I passed by a newsagent outlet,I asked them to check my numbers and the answer I got: Sorry..You are not the winner."
Well,my friends, those of you who read my blog, if I had been the winner of that jackpot,you would be on the next plane to Perth,all expenses paid for by Sebugey.
