News from UK

Was having dinner with the so-called ex-students (Teck Chuan, Vincent, Nick, Siew Yuen and Ryan), and listening to their experiences from UK... Vincent worked in a restaurant that provides fine dining - you have to really follow the serving rules, and have to wait until the customer top leave before you can call it a day. Sometimes you'll have to wait at the bar for them to leave. When they come for dinner, they spend the whole night there. -- reminds me of the time I spent in Wolski's, where serving customer was the enjoyable time for me (of course, the time working in kitchen Nick Smillie and friends, too!) Teck Chuan was busying selling i-phone through ebay, and feeling that he is sick of the i-phone. -- thinking that Jason Maciag, Raymond Cook must be having i-phone and busying trading the phone with other friends. They always have some new models from somewhere! Nick was talking about their experiences in banqueting. Sometimes they have to serve the people till late at night, and during the christmas time the work was just endless! There are times he worked for 12 hours continuously, and the pay was £5.5. -- reminds me of the time I worked in Headingley Experience as front of house member (although only few times), but this has given me a great experience to learn a lot! really have to thank a lot of people, like Liz, Louise, Feona, Andy, James, Rob, Phil... and many many more that I don't think I have space here to name them all - Thank you all front of house staff in Headingley Experience. Siew Yuen misses the time she spent in the German Market! Selling Candy and enjoying the Christmas there! -- Wow... sometimg I miss too! The Sausages there, the pizze, crepe, and many more! Ryan is now in Nottingham University (Malaysia Campus), and enjoyed listening to their experience.... -- it just the university life I miss... Of course, when talking UK, there are many people I miss too - Kitchen people like Steph, James, Phil, Barney, Simons; and FGS people like Jenna, Katy, Louisa, Colman, Jessica, Vincent, Edwin, Nicol, and many many more... thanks for the good memories you all give me! Wish one day I'll be there again to be with you all again!
