Hi Everyone
Happy belated Valentine Day to all.
Yes, Valentine Day, besides love all about friendship too and I do appreciate this unique warm friendship we fellow kaki have for each other. I never imagined that as a married working adult with 2 children, I would or could indulge in this hobby again. The difference between this wonderful hobby as a child and as a matured adult is surely the warm friendship we fellow kaki's have for/with each other.
As a child, it was (at least to me) winning at all cost and I did as a child quarreled with others over the disputed outcome of a match, lost sleep over losing and constantly yearning for championship recognition among my schoolmate. I even offered $1.00 (35 years ago $1.00 quite a handsome sum) to the school champion only to be turned down by him as someone had offered him $10.00.
I lost some friends in my own blinded desire for primary school glory..all because I was immature and perhaps childish. Now as an adult, even though I still yearn for recognition and perhaps Fs glory, it is with a full dose of light hearted-ness. I realised that it is actually fun to lose and even more fun to work hard hunting to regain championship glory, but all in a fun adult way.
Well how does all these relate to Valentine Day??? Well the fun adult way include especially this warm friendship. It is heart warming to see Bros Rudy and Bro Ricky being warmly welcome in Malaysia while Bro Viper and Bro Jason being warmly welcome in Singapore. This warmth is the main difference between Fs as an adult and as a child.
To me, this warmth is reflected in our almost weekly FS fights always filled with laughter and happiness....lose or win. I am happy to be part of this cozy small group of FS who cordially invite me to join in the fights. Bro Seng, Vincent and Ah Kim being super old timer makes no distinction or mention about seniority and junior Kaki like me, Rudy and Ricky are all part of this one happy family. I may not have been champion for sometime but I am happy with our friendship.

Yoo bro Randy, yeah Valentine Day was just over and agreed that it's about love and friendship. I remembered that the SG fs activities started in year 2009 with bro Edwin and Yuda and from there on more and more SG kakis joined in the fun. Those times were great. No disputes and personal grudges. As more and more kakis joined in, there are bound to have someone who yearn for championship recognition. Its human nature when it involves competitions. Situation got worst with the introduction of foreign talents ( HK T Bha and T Sub ) and resentments were there. Things got worst in the later part of 2011 and escalated to 2012. This is very sad.Happy belated Valentine Day to all.

Hopefully as what bro Randy had said Valentine Day is not just for love but also friendship, I hope the hatred, resentments, angers, grudges will all be vanished and we still be bros and enjoyed the fs activities like yesterday once more !
