It was in late
July when I received a call from Adrian Boudville inviting me to attend his 80th
birthday as well as his Golden Wedding Anniversary.
On the day of the celebration another birthday was added that of Adrian’s wife Helen who would be celebrating
her 74th birthday.

Well the
more the merrier as they say and it was just that with family and friends
coming from Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Singapore, UK, Australia and Sweden.
With Adrian
and Helen, son Edmund who was the Master of ceremonies, his two children Ashley
and Cedric and daughter Aileen it was a most joyous occasion.

Our families
have been close. Adrian’s mother Marianne Boudville was my Godmother and even though
their family members had settled in different parts of the world we kept in
touch.
On occasions
such as this all would return to Ipoh to celebrate on this event.
Joining to make the occasion auspicious was HH the Raja Muda of Perak Tuanku Jaffar and other old friends and ‘kakis’ of Adrian from his days with the automobile associations of the Royal Perak Motor Club and the Triumph Owners Club being present.

As the night
wore on it began to resemble a Eurasian evening. With Brian Duorado at the microphone
strumming the songs of yesteryear and the guests singing and dancing along to
make it a wonderful night to remember.
