  9. Wah, I can spot Ted with his goggle behind the scrony guy and next to Miss Sim. Didn't know you were one of the swimmer. So, one more to add to the swimming competition at BB2010.

    By the way anyone asking Yu Teck if he would like to demo at BB2010?

    The Scrony guy behind Yu Teck is Meng Teck.

  14. The Scrony Guy is not Meng Teck , remember he's got 'softballs' . I cannot remember his name but I think he stayed near Paul Tan at Kenyalang Park or same row as Lim Eng Siang ...

  28. Anthony

  29. Hi David,Anthony & PCK,I remembered Kay Soon was assigned to swim backstroke in the 4X100m Medley relay.Being the 1st swimmer,he zigzaged all the way from start to finish last!!.But luckily,the next 3 swimmers lead by Yu Teck managed to catch up other teams.

  30. Can anybody please search for the girl inbetween Iris Lee and Ms Sim Mui Eng. I thing her name is Rose Lau Phin Ing (hope I got the name right). She is in Pioneer 2 and have been looking for her since left school..somebody pleasssss....thanks

  31. Wilfred,

    Your memory damn good. It does jog my memory. I think I was one of the other 3 swimmers, I did breast stroke . I think we were the underdog. I think after the photo shoot most of us were thrown into the pool or happily jump with our clothes on.
    Happy memories ..... Yes where is Kay Soon ?

    ReplyDelete
  32. Anthony, now u recall. Guan Ted was the tall fair and handsome with the trendy glasses and like Patrick said, bell bottom! Ha, ha, ha,......

    ReplyDelete
  33. But Siong Moh, I didn't think Gan Ted was into chasing boys........ Girl, hhmmmmmmmm may be.....

    Josephine, I'm still trying to put a face to your name. Getting old and memory definitely failing.

  35. Hi Ted,Infact,I remember well because my Yellow House swimming team lost the event.The 4x100m Medley relay being the finale event and I was cheering for YH on top of my voice,and went home dissappointed.When Kay Soon(Green House) squandered the 1st leg of the race with zigzag backstroke,I thought YH would be sure winner but not realising you have Yu Teck and company catching up later.
    Btw,Sim Kay Soon is in Bintulu.His brother(KL)told me he does not have his contact,but will try to get it for me.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Hi Siong Moh!! Great you have at least found his Brother!! Robert is nearest to him...sportman as he is ...can easily give Kay Soon a piggy back ride to Kch!! ha ha Ever heard of Green with Envy...swimming is Green House thing ...remembered cheering for Green House too...and to eat Belacan Beehoon outside the pool in celebration!!! ha ha

  37. Hi Siong Moh!!! remembered one incident at the swimming ,there is an old man..lifeguard..caretaker or something..I was there and a couple of nasty boys were looking for a fight and the old man took a milkmaid tin and poke a hole into the can with his fingers to show those boys and they ran helter sketters in all directions...ha ha wonder this kung fu master is still around!!

    ReplyDelete
  38. Hi Anthony,
    I think the kung-fu master was gone,even one of the lifeguards, Mr.Yap has passed away few years after retirement.

    ReplyDelete
  39. So sad!!! Siong Moh...If not could have gotten him to demo his abilities at 2010BB...Never mind Uncle Fatt Khiong can do the drunken Master too....ha ha
