Dear all and sorry for being dead.

The MAIN DO Dinner has been arranged and booked under my name at Chui Huay Lim Club at Newton. It is on tomorrow at 7:30pm.
You are all welcome to come to the bar I'm working at today from 6pm onwards. I will be serving drinks at ATLAS. Look for me (Gary) and your first drink will be on me.

Cheers,
Gary
