At Bagio, The Philipines.

It was in 1979. As some plane tickets were readily available, I found myself alone joining a group of familiar faces on the 1 week Manila Tour. Francesca and Trevor had earlier gone on the Hongkong one. This pose with my good friend, Range, was taken during the walk-about bus-trip to see an active volcano!

Memories of long ago...

My feature room-wall at the Residence
I happened to be away in UK in 1980-81 and I made my home at Mary Morris Residence, an 18p bus-ride to Leeds University. It's a walkable distance and I had once done the walk prompted by some magnetic incentives.

River Rhine Cruise.

At the end of the 3-months professional course at Lancaster University, England, in 1984, the group of Malaysian matured students took time off for an eight-days-10-countries coach-ride European tour. Hectic days and travel, but who really cared! There were cases of buying postcards in one country, self-addressing some and posting them home in another country. No wonder many did not arrive at all. I was at the organized River Rhine Cruise. The others must be all around the boat, shopping.
