So, if you won a life time suppy of durian what would you do with it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durian for those that dont know. check out the flavor and odur part

What do you think is better, local coffee or the western version?
for someone that was new to your country what would you like to show them?

talk to you soon

Hi Bruce,

Khabar baik.

Lifetime supply of durian huh - well, I would give 80% away and keep the 20% for my mom - she's addicted to durian and I'm not!

She'll probably eat about 50% of that and make the balance into durian sweets, puddings and "tempoyak" - a word not translatable

As for coffee, I prefer western, local coffee is too rich for me as it's roasted in butter....

What to do in Malaysia? Too much. Of course the first thing I would do is of course do the Kuala Lumpur tour - the basics, KLCC (Petronas Twin Towers), the oldest mosque, Temples (Indian and Chinese) advise the guests to do Batu Caves. And then, we'll hit the beaches. Really, it depends on the guests themselves...some people just come here to shop!!!

Food of course is of great importance - we have so many different varieties. I have had friends come over just for food only!!!

It also depends on how much time the guests have in Malaysia. 2 days is not enough to do anything!!!

hi again,

Hi Bruce!!!

you said you smoke, What brand do you smoke? do they smoke Clove Cigarettes there? it seems every place you go in indo you smell those.

I smoke salems - made a deal with myself to quit at 40

. Clove cigarettes are prevalent here, imported from Indo of course - but I can't stand the smell myself!!!

I dont see where anyone asked you, Why and when you started your love of cats.

The love of cats started since birth - my mom tells me I had a guard cat when i was a baby - she used to guard the crib and died when I was 3. My eldest sister was one of Malaysia's first Persian breeders and she quit breeding about 20 years ago. I do not remember a time when we DIDN'T have a cat or four at home.

I see you said you know how to dive? do you still do that?... would you come to bali and go diving with me sometime?

I don't dive anymore - ever since my back gave me even more problems then it did before which was about 3 years back - it's unfair for everyone else to carry my tanks and equipment for me. Also, my cats take up a lot of my time and money so, diving is an expensive hobby I have to do away with. I miss it though! I would love to go dive with you in Bali but since we both have back problems, we'll have to get some one else to carry the stuff!!!

have a good day
bruce

You too!!!

I've never followed the "Spotlight of the Week" threads before, obviously I've been seriously missing out! So... questions, hey?

1. What is the nicest thing anyone has ever said to you?

The nicest thing? "You're a good daughter and a good person" said to me by one of my late father's friend just after my father passed away. He's quite close to the family but hadn't realised that I had quit my job to look after my mom who was looking after my dad.

2. What is your proudest moment?

There have been so many - passing my advance open water diver at 14, being the "face" of the local cat fancy for 2006 and recently having a pedigreed cat named after me!

3. What is the worst thing that has ever happened to you/what is the worst thing you have ever had to do? (Take that one however you want!)

The worst thing that ever happened to me was making a serious loss in the stock market. The hardest thing I've ever had to do was say goodbye to my dad.

4. What is your favourite room in your house/apartment & why?

My bedroom - that's where the current litter of Aby kittens are in!

5. What is the thing you most want out of life?

Ohhh, tough one - but in essence, I would like to be acknowledged as a good person, to love and be loved and on the other side of things, to be able to produce the ultimate Abyssinian!

6. What is your earliest childhood memory?

The best childhood memory I have, which may not be the earliest is winning my first swim competition at age five.

Hmmmm.... that's about all the random questions I can come up with right now, but I love this game so I'm sure I'll be back with more later!

Fire away - I'll be answering until next week!!!

Thanks!

A few random questions for you!

What is your idea of the perfect day?

Cool with a slight breeze in the air, waking up to my cats who aren't waking me up, a quick swim followed by a light breakfast or lunch (depending on the wake up time!

). A nap after lunch, playtime with the cats, reading by the beach, good company for dinner.

How many cats sleep with you at night?

Currently, 4 but that may change at any time.

Do any of your cats have your personality?

None, thank goodness!

They are all sweethearts whereas I can be nasty on occassion!!!

That's all for now I am supposed to be leaving the house for the weekend...HAVE FUN!!!
