I WISH TO THANK MY WIFE SUE AND THE TEAM OF VISION KL FOR WINNING THE INAUGURAL KUALA LUMPUR MAYOR'S AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN THE PRINT MEDIA (MAGAZINE) CATEGORY. THIS IS SUCH AN HONOUR AS THIS IS THE FIRST KL MAYOR AWARDS AND THUS A HISTORIC OCCASION!' This was the sort of party KLites love best---little talk and lots of grub and nonstop drinks! Of course the loquacious Dato Steve Day had to make the obligatory welcome speech but he kept it short since all his guests already knew the reason for the party. He and wifey booked the entire restaurant at great cost and made sure the food was fabulous and the wines free flowing. La Bodega is renowned for its food and we were not disappointed. Each guest was asked to display the sticker that shrieked 'I Love Vision KL' which was to be exchanged for a t-shirt as we departed. I was given a wrapped t-shirt with no questions asked and my worst fear was confirmed when I got home. My t-shirt was XXXL and considering I am slim and svelte like a silver sliver of sunlight, I am planning to cut it asunder and use it as bedspread. CONGRATULATIONS DATO STEVE DAY AND DATIN SU DAY FOR A JOB WELL DONE ! MAY YOU REPEAT THE FEAT NEXT YEAR!
