2008 CNY reunion dinner booking

This year Diana suggested a buffet restaurant call VIENNA International Seafood & Teppanyaki Buffet Restaurant at United Square, Thomson road just outside "Novena" MRT.

We went to this restaurant to check it out on 29/12/2007 Saturday and found the food quite good. However the price for dinner during weekend/public holiday is more expensive at $36.80 per person. The ambience of this place is also much better than the place we held our reunion dinner last year.

I decided on 26/1/2008 Saturday and immediately send out sms messages to all family members to ask for their approval.
However only Kar Yee, Har, Karen & V Keen reply. I have to call up elder brother and 2nd sister on the phone to ask for their opinion. 2nd sister feels that the price is expensive while elder brother have no objection but just wanted to take his own sweet time doing things at his own pace. Really cannot stand his attitude.

We decided to book a table first because Chinese New Year is next month at the 7th Feb 2008 which is one month away.
I book a table for 18 person for dinner at 6.00pm at 26/1/2008 and place a deposit of $50.
I will wait till next Saturday for their reply and then inform them that I had book a table for this year reunion dinner.
