13.11.2024 Wednesday - a bit of sun, felt better immediately

I start early as usual preparing the new idea for Satok, followed by the second project in Satok (Penghui and George are hard at it, and doing well - I am very pleased).

At 1030, Freddie and I get in a car to visit Andrew and his steel trusses, and to see which shade of red we like for them. Andrew talks a lot about his work; the paint, the mill finish, the sand blasting, and the lifting techniques, construction sequence, police escorts during the lifting...He talks a lot - but I don't mind, I am learning new stuff. 

Seeing the actual steel sizes puts me at ease, and I like how he and Rianto is assembling the whole 19-m first lift together.
 

It is Fiona's birthday - I bring her a flower from the garden (a ginger flower 'bunga kantan') and we all go for lunch at the Tandoori place. Over ate and did not exercise. Later in the evening, we have dinner with Eric, PH and Freddie - they get on and chat through the dinner. During which we heard some unpleasant news about Eric's co-curator which makes Sam quite angry. 

Never mind, we are here to reset the balance. I get the brainwave to send PH to Taiwan to see TTY's installation project with CYCU.
