Relief

A relief to be back in KL with our next guest to come in a fortnight but only for a couple of days, and then perhaps a family visit in May. It is very nice indeed to be back with the GF without others around.

We went to Sarang and had a delicious Nyonya laksa and sago gula melaka. It does go from strength to strength; I’ve not had a single dish I haven’t enjoyed.

Then I went to get passport photos taken. The usual Chinese woman was not there, it being the eve of CNY, and her replacement didn’t notice (any more than I did) that my kajal was smudged all over my face. I am now home and wondering if (a) I can get away with a passport renewal if I have a big black blotch on one side of my face and (b) if I can bear to have this photo on my passport for the next decade. Decisions, decisions.
