May Lay
Clifford Lau
Wendy Lau 
Angela Lau 




May Lau wedding with my Mum and her colleagues 

There are 2 more sister and brothers, who children I will name here :

The youngest sister (Mona) was married to a school teacher, Mr. Phoon He later became a school principal and the President of the Orchid Society. I recall spending many days at the Phoon family residence as we (my Mum and Aunty Mona) were especially close and our families were both members of the Singapore Swimming Club.

Back in the day, after our morning swim, we had to proceed to school However, every Sunday was a treat as all the swimmers (the boys at least) went to the open area (Cabana is now built here).

The Boys would then proceed to play football with a soft ball replicating Star Soccer. 

I was famously known as Stiff Legs. I firmly believed my legs were metallic just like the 6 Million Dollar Man - Steve Austin/

I recall once when we were playing and my shoes, gave way. I continued to play barefeet and had made a swipe of the ball aimed at the goal.

I missed it pathetically, and my meet grazed the 100 year old tree and the bark actually flew out.

I was a terrible ruffian and could take and give punishment. LOL. 

True Story.
