Xmas

Black out again! Same thing last year. Groped in the dark to get ready for Cecil's Xmas party where we waited till 2 am for Sinha and wife from KL. At 2 they rang to say just arrived, traffic jams, too tired to come.

The Salvation Army appeared as usual, at midnight. When the band master asked me I said his band was not as good as it was 3 or 4 yrs ago. He said he had two new players and hey would take time to learn.

Ranko Kurano, a Japanese visiting soprano, was a guest and she sang with the band and was good company.

AN old Japanese couple told me they were coming to Penang on the Malaya my second Home programme. Japan was now not a pleasant place to live in and they have fallen in love with Penang.
