Rugby Dinner
I was invited by my big boss to a rugby dinner last night. Over 95% of the participants were Gwei Lo. Rugby is truly a Gwei Lo's game. I never liked it, even when I was in the UK. They asked me to play ('cos I am sort of big and tall), but I refused, and said I'd better play table-tennis!
My boss and I were the only Chinese for my table. The dinner was boring enough: Two ex-rugby players (I guess they were famous) went onto the stage and talked for 45 minutes each. Their speech was full of English jokes, which probably could only be appreciated by the Brits. I only got 30% of them.
As usual, the dinner started at 7:45pm with a drink and did not really start until it was 8:45pm. It finished at around midnight. Boring boring boring...

Poor you.
我昨日在灣仔見到一個鬼佬落的士時，在拭淚，後往車尾廂拿大袋野走，我估他剛輸波。
咁在咁悶的情況下，你會出聲嗎？還是成晚「啊ha、啊ha……」
出聲? what do you think I should say? Of course, I would do the normal social talking, but I was not paying attention to the speech given by those two ex-players.
