The 8th Year..
See, when you get married in year 2000, you’ll NEVER ever forget how long you’ve married. Ppl who married before that, have to manually count..HA HA HA..just kidding! Don’t throw old shoes at me, please!
Yesterday was our 8th anniversary. 8th May 2008. Sigh….. for one of the few times in my life, I planned a romantic evening.
Me… the one who has bad hair and fat mama belly.
Actually, it was more of a surprise for him. I just told him that we were going out for dinner. I had contacted one of his oldest and dearest friend and her husband to join us. Thankfully, they are quite a food connoiseur (?) and knew where to eat.
They decided it would be at the Grand Hotel. Actually, it’s really a pub…it was a hotel, but the hotel no longer operates.
I had to organise a 24 hour day pass into the Citylink toll, because one cannot just simply go on the freeway…blady toll (similiar to Singapore), all electronic one. So, when I told Mr.T to drive into the toll freeway, he was very nervous. He didn’t want to get fined! Ha ha..Then he asked where we were eating, I muttered, "Oh..some pub!".
He went "Err OH!!! Errr..PUB?"
I said, "Don’t worry..it’s not some hip and happening pub. Probably some old fudgy pub which happens to have good English food".
Actually, I had NO clue what they served…so I saja cakap. He was like, "WAH??? Who recommended???? Sandee ah?"
Me, "Ah..ya ya..she said it was good" SORRY SANDEE… 
When we got there, looking for parking, his friend n hub was JUST walking into the door, I was soo afraid that he would have spotted them, that I shouted, "OOOIII…PARK THERE PARK THERE", pointing to the opposite direction.
Luckily he was so tired (from work), that he didn’t see them.
When we finally got into the place, he was really surprised. He knows how unromantic I am….so, he was quite appreciative of the fact that I ‘brought’ him out and planned this surprise.
It was a lovely Italian joint. Very fine dining at a very reasonable price! We wined and dined, and had really good adult conversations. All in all, a fantastic and relaxed evening out.
Our 8th Anniversary…hopefully, I won’t forget this evening..in years to come. I’m so bad at being romantic …so, if he ever accused me of being unromantic, I’m going to use this as my trump card! 
mott,
You are romantic lah! kekeke!
Eh, what’s the adult conversation ah? I am just a kid, so, quite curious leh. hahahaha!:D
