There are several invitations of wedding kenduris this month of December. One was in KL at the hall at FELDA head quarters on Friday 1 December 2017. My senior Old Edwardian Kamaluddin's daughter wedding dinner reception was held there. Met several other senior OEs there - Captain (R) Bakri, Jagjeet Singh, Lt Col(R) Sanuddin, Hilal, Hamdan and Tan.

On Sunday 3 December 2017, I drove to Ipoh to attend another kenduri. Schoolmate Basir's son was getting married that day. The kenduri was held at his house at Selasar Rokam, Ipoh.
Ishak had reached there earlier but he had to leave for another kenduri at Lumut. I arrived at the venue by 1.00 PM. Hanafiah also arrived about the same time. Basir welcomed us and invited us to a table. Lunch was already ready for us. So, we ate. As Basir was busy attending to other guests, Hanafiah and I chatted away while eating. Khairul Anwar arrived later and joined us at the table.

Other than the sumptuous lunch, there was also laksa, cucur bawang and local kuih with hot teh tarik.
Khairul Anwar had to leave first. Hanafiah and I waited for another schoolmate to arrive. Jamaee was caught in a traffic jam at the Menora Tunnel and would arrive late. By 4.00 PM, Jamaee and wife finally arrived. We continued to chat away over kuih and tea.
By 5.00 PM, all of us bade farewell and thanked Basir and family for their hospitality. I headed to the Excelsior Hotel, Ipoh to stay for the night.
