We brought the two boys along for the wedding reception in town. This was initially planned for yesterday evening, but was delayed until this lunchtime due to the road closures. The venue, Dewan Tun Rahah, at Menara Tun Razak off Jalan Bukit Bintang. That was the first time I had been to the hall, a not particularly big one, but nice and intimate.
There were plenty of Consultants from UM present just then, took me a good 20 minutes to go and talk to most of them. Some of them happened to be my patients believe it or not. I was really glad that the hall was full, as the fear was, should the situation yesterday was worst than it was, nobody would want to travel into town. Another worry was the weather, as it started to rain heavily when we arrived.
Unfortunately my boys were really grumpy at the hall, Irfan especially as he was still carrying a sniffle. He did not want to come along initially but since there were nobody left at home to look after him, we had to drag him along, minus his iPad. He was a right strop. I was not able to enjoy much of the food and to calm him down I had to carry him out.
The nice pelamin that they had
Speech from the hostOne thing about a lunch rather than dinner wedding was how fast the ceremony seemed to go. By the time everything was done as dusted, it was only 2.30pm. If it was dinner, I can imagine it dragging in for a couple more hours. The food was good, catered from Seri Malaysia. The boys has some rice, then went straight for the dessert, some chocolate cakes. Sufficed to say, I was not able to get many snaps.
