Another tradition that we have maintained for many years - Hari Raya lunch at Zainal's house. This traditional has been going on for as long as I can remember. We would all gather at his house - Chinese, Indian, Eurasian and Malay - all part of a community bonded by love of the game and the man (Zee).
It is a great time of just chilling - catching up with each other and the latest gossip. This year there is an overwhelming discussion of squashies applying or attending US colleges including Shi Yuan (who has decided that Yale was the coolest place to be), Byran Koh (following his brother to Harvard?), James at NYU (the team is fielding a 9 men team this year). There was also lots of excitement over Jo and Zee recent trip to the World Masters in Birmingham - how squash can be so much fun!
Also the usual lament about the state of squash in Singapore and how badly we need to improve the squash scene. Perpetual issue with no solution in sight (Sigh).
Of course, I had to sent the photo of all the delicious food to Kenneth. Still the best Malay food we have each year.
