The ice-cream cake that was served during the family luncheon at the Ayuthya Thai Restaurant in Damansara
Birthday cake presented by my friend, Datuk Kelvin Tan
1. My last birthday fell on February 23. It was an extraordinary celebration as many well-wishes were received from several groups - first, the immediate family members. The children phoned to extend their birthday wishes; then my brothers, nephews and nieces through the whatapps of Perstuan Keluarga Keturunan Tok Din & Tok Piah Malaysia (PKTD&TPM) and Keturunan Tok Wan & Tok Siti. The biggest number were my FB friends which accounted for around 100 from many countries which include Indonesia, Kazakhstan, New Zealand, South Africa and USA, with different messages and gifts of beautiful 'cakes' (reposted here). I did try to respond to each friend early in the day but with the overwhelming numbers, I decided to address everyone that have extended their well-wishes in one posting.

I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to all my FB friends who have extended their birthday wishes. I responded to each one of the earlier postings but subsequently with the postings pouring in, it is not possible to respond individually....I am 77 today ...it is an extraodinary birthday. I woke up early as usual to perform my 'subuh' prayer. Got a hug and birthday card from my wife. 'Only that for my birthday', I said to her. She smiled with understanding. Got myself into my running attire and after drinking two glasses of plain water, off I went to Taman Tasik Cempaka, my regular jogging green area. Did 3 laps on the running circuit, covering about 4.5 km and at the same time met my regular jogging friends. Return home and take a look at the kitchen garden at the back of the house. Did a little weeding and watering. It has been dry for a couple of weeks with intermittent light showers. I make sure that the plants receive adequate moisture by watering twice a day - once in the morning and once in the evening....Breakfast was slightly late at ard 9.30 am with oats and chicken soup, a quarter cut of murtabak and Nescafe...Then started reading the many wellwishes on the whatsapp groups. The well wishes came, among others, from Kazakstan, New Zealand, Indonesia, USA and South Africa . At the same time communicating with my children about the birthday get-together. It was earlier suggested that the get-together be held a day earlier (Sun Feb 22) but that was aborted as the youngest daughter, Rozana, and her family were away in Tokyo and only returning that Sunday night. The birthday get-together was held at the Thai Restaurant at Medan Damansara. Two members of the family were unable to attend. My son-in-law, Nizam, apologised as he had a golf commitment with close members of the family. My eldest grandson, Syazwan Aldrin, is away in UK pursuing his study there. However, he has already extended his wishes on the FB. On returning home I was in front of the computer responding to the many well-wishes and closing my day a little late at 11.00 pm-an hour later than my usual bed time. Thanks to all my dear friends for making this a memorable day. More details on the birthday happening with photos will appear in my blog : Dr. Hashim's JofHappiness.

Hashim Bin Abdul-Wahab Thanks Tas for the awesome video. Watching it made me want to go on the next plane to Almaty to meet you and do some trekking and climbing. Looking at the height around 2700m and comparing with Mt Kinabalu at around 4000m it appears manageable as I hv climbed Mt Kinabalu for 15 times, but with the thick snow and at 77, perhaps I better confine myself to lower hills.
