It’s back to the ‘Writing Board’
Yes, my humble writing skills must once more take centre stage in an effort to pay the monthly bills and put food on the table.

On that occasion, I was fortunate as Lek and I were able to call it a day at around 2 a.m. and hand over the reins to Auntie and two other girls who had succeeded in staying awake at such ungodly hours.
Those particular customers did not depart until well after 3 am. and the next evening, they were back again for yet another very late night session.
They chided me for not downloading the music they had requested on the previous evening.
