For me, 2007 began where 2006 left off. I gave the bulk of my public presentations in the first half of 2007, speaking to the HP Alumni and Raffles Girls, then at an Internet course. More recently I spoke at SMU on the topic of Persuasion. In March I made my pilgrimage to Austin, Texas …

Football fans will know that David Beckham himself will be training at Arsenal, possibly with the first team or reserves. Arsene Wenger has good things to say about Beckham: “I admire how strong Beckham has been mentally through his career because he went through some tough times… I respect the fact that he has always …
And how the tables have turned! Arsenal and Manchester United have switched places again and we Gooners will have a Happy New Year indeed. I was hoping against hope that West Ham would give Man U a run for their money, and they actually did! However my ultimate wish was for ex-Gunner Freddie Ljungberg to …
I was greatly shocked to hear of Benazir Bhutto’s death. Like other politicians she wasn’t perfect but she provided competition to a dictator and brought hope for fairer elections.

The guy who was supposed to set up our band equipment, was …
Tomorrow, I will be playing keyboards at St George’s Church, which is hosting a fundraising event for the Missions to Seafarers. We will play a good number of Christmas Carols and there will be singing by old-timers and children. If you’ve got time to spare do come! You’ll get to see half of the Moon …
I’m still busy but thought I better update this blog at least once a week! I’ve been attending weddings the past few weeks, and two hen lunches for colleagues. If you’re a Facebook friend you may get a glimpse of the silly things we made them do. For some reason, I’ve been falling asleep very …
