Tugasan Hari Minggu

Semalam Kakak 'bekerja' di salah sebuah West End teater di Drury Lane... dalam penggambaran filem komedi romantik Run, Fat Boy, Run arahan David Schwimmer (Ross Geller dalam siri sitkom tersohor Friends). Adengannya di foyer teater di mana orang ramai (mostly berkeluarga) sedang beratur untuk masuk menonton satu persembahan. Kakak beraksi bersama 'keluarganya' (ayah, mak, abang dan adik)... sebagai salah seorang extras.

Dalam perjalanan pulang ke rumah, setelah Kakak kembali ke Pinewood Studio dari London bersama-sama kanak2 yang lain...
Kakak: "Daddy, you know David... the director, I kind of spoke to him. Well... mmm, he said to me, "Can you please move 5 inches this way". Does that count?"

Daddy: "Mmm... sorry dear, I don't think that counts".

Kakak: "Aaarghhh.. ".

Kakak: "You know daddy, on set, we were not allowed to speak unless spoken. That's very Victorian! You know, during the Victorian Era, children were supposed to be seen but not heard.

Daddy: "Well, then, we considered them as well-mannered children. Once in a while, it would probably be good for you to be like them too... especially when... " (I looked to my left, with the car seat reclined, Kakak was already asleep after such a long day. It was already 8:45pm and I continued the journey home on the M4 motorway with my Malaysian 80's rock collection songs in the background... Belantara, Search, Wings, Ella, Exist, Iklim... and Halim Yazid's witty lyrics).

Sebelum itu, Atok di Bicester dalam Perhimpunan Hari Raya kelolaan Persatuan Masyarakat Melayu United Kingdom (atau lebih dikenali sebagai 'Melayu UK'). Seperti di tahun-tahun lalu, majlis ini dihadiri oleh masyarakat Melayu yang bermastautin di sini, terutamanya mereka yang tinggal jauh dari tempat-tempat yang ramai pelajar Msia, dan berpasangan orang tempatan. Alhamdulillah, kira-kira 100 orang hadir bersuai-kenal dan beramah-mesra sambil menikmati juadah hari raya.
