I know Susan from Adelaide....from Kuala Pilah, ex TKC, who has done well for herself in Oz. A Malaysian who, if she had stayed in Malaysia, would have done more for Malaysia than Malaysia could have done for her. She is SONICLEAN - click here and you will learn more about her...but I digress...let me tell you what happened:
About a week ago I received a note from her on FB:
What is your address for delivery?
I sent her my address thinking that she will surely be sending me some interesting news cutout that she must have come across recently....wondering in my hearts of hearts why did she not just email me a copy of the said news....but I did as requested. ......these TKC girls, as MCKK guys do know, are not to be questioned. Ours not to reason why.....
Yesterday this is what happened:

Then I got an sms from TPLim:
Hi Hussein I have been contact by Susan Lee from Adelaide . She has asked me to cater for you. I need the time and date to deliver the food to your Fitzroy address.
Can I suggest the following please:
Belacan Bendi atau Kankung atau French beans.
Nasi Beryani orPlain Rice.
Satay Inn Halal Malaysian Restaurant
I was out of credit for my mobile...so I had to go downstairs to the Korean Deli on the other side of the street, bought some credit ......and this was my reply to Lim.
Tqs. The following will do.
Curry Ayam, nasi beriani for one and chicken satay for three people.
I m already hungry. Possible tomite at 7pm?
Long story short...my wife, son and me had a wonderful Malaysian dinner last night!
As I was eating my meal I thought of Susan and sent her the following message through FB
