White Christmas @ Lokaldero

by

Yesterday, P&G FSS (all P&G employees supporting P&G Asia shared services) had its Christmas party in Lokaldero, the Fort Strip. The theme: WHITE.

by

When I was a child, every night from December 16 till Christmas, I would wander around the neighborhood with some neighborhood kids like me, and, armed with nothing but makeshift tambourines (softdrink crowns hammered flat and strung through with wire), our off-key voices, guts, a thirst for money and a bit of Christmas spirit, we’d […]
