今晚又一次約了前港大的體育中心導師和辦公室同事晚飯聚舊,今次地點選在銅鑼灣的遊艇會。那裡的環境及氣氛是十分配合悠閒的心情去飽嚐美食的,因為餐廳的大部份地方都是在室外的太陽傘下,吹著微細的海風,很是惬意。今晚出席的有好幾年沒見的Patrick同 Mrs. Ling。Patrick是體育中心的前行政主任,當我和他同在中心在職時,因為他的年資關係,在無論在工作上或待人接物方面,很多時候都教導及提點我,可算是我的明燈,對他我是可以用敬重來形容的。因為他已退休並由加回來是準備買房子的,驚覺香港的樓價已升得很高,還是要暫且擱置計劃了。席間各人例牌互相打招呼問好,Mrs. Ling依然是那麼時髦,時常加港兩邊飛。鍾伯光由體院轉去浸大教書。劉Sir還很得意洋洋地展示他的長者卡和八達通,怎看都不像65歲吧。
餐廳的食物水準不錯,不過價錢就稍貴了點。Mabel帶了兩支紅酒請大家舉杯。大顆兒飲飽吃醉後拍了合照,約定4月14日再會。

I have joined a dinner with the former colleagues of HKU sports centre. They included the instructors and the office staff. The dinner was taken place at the Yacht Club at Causeway Bay where the scenary was excellent by facing the sea. We sit outside under the umbrellas which is matching our mood at all. This dinner, especially held for Patrick and Mrs. Ling who came from Calgary and Vancouver. I have not met them for a few years. Patrick is not just an old colleague to me but also a teacher. When we are working at the sports centre, in spite of his experience, he taught me a lot both in the working and how to get along with people. I really respect him. The reason that he'd back to HK is for purchasing the flat because he has retired from his post in Calgary and also his son wants to work in HK. Mrs. Ling is still being a mature woman and dress up ceremonious. She always flies between HK and Vancouver. PK Chung left the HK Sports Institute and is now a professor of HK Baptist Univ. Lau Sir showed his senior card and octopus glorily.
The food of the restaurant is rather tasting but the price is quite expensive. Mabel brought us two bottles of red wine and most of us have drown a little. We took photos in front of before leaving and made the next appointment on 14 April.
