Challenge:
"Can you GLISH a National Day song?"
"What?"

Had a bit of a chat with John Klass, the man behind the current GOLD 90.5 fm Home Stretch segment from 5pm to 8pm.

When I heard, a few evenings ago during dinner, that if I could hum a National Day song, I could win a prize. I am always in for any fun. I called up the station immediately. And, of course, Mr. Class [Klass] himself answered. 

The challenge was not to hum the SG song but to glish it [that's the second syllable of Singlish]. So I did. Didn't remember the title but he helped me complete the song when we both did a harmonising duet. And we went, "Glish, glish, glish, glish, glish..."😍. Could be, Count On Me Singapore?

And I won a $120 prize; oh well! Probably in pillows, bolsters and bedsheets. What an evening! But my wife chose a beautiful blouse and pants to match.

Thanks John, and to the sponsors of course.
