Grandpa turns 60!

Really cannot believe it! Another birthday?!
It is a glorious 60 years for grandpa on 15 Novemeber. Born in 1947 in a small town of Johore, Malayia. Grandpa migrated to Singapore with his dad when he was below 5 years old. According to this grandfather's story, (hehehehehe) his mum left them when he was very young and he practically grew up in the longkang (drain) :-P His hawker dad was so busy with the business that he could forget to feed this longkang boy, let alone parenting. Sound rather sad but think this was the usual fate for kids in that generation. Life was tough, period.

Nonetheless, grandpa is a happy man now, with 3 kids and 2 grandkids to call his own. Grandma is also a devoting wife who now focuses on spending quality time with him besides her daytime work. Indeed, they should enjoy the time now. Their children are all grown up and striving out on their own. Mummy just glad that they are healthy and sane :-D

All of us went to Jumbo restaurant at waterfront for dinner. This place is famous for its chili crabs. Mummy's favourite, yum yum! Frankly, it is really a feat to dine with 2 children. One will make noise after you settled the other. Spinning heads for mummy and daddy... We were so caught up with feeding & eating, we forgotten to take pictures of the yummies. FAINTZ!

Luckily there were some shots taken right before the dinner, at least served as a momento.
