THE BEGINNING OF THE END FOR THE 51 YEARS OLD BN?

WE ( Haris, TV Smith, Hawkeye, Benny and I) left the Blog House at 5:30pm enroute to Permatang Pauh. As in most Fridays, the Plus Highway had its extra traffic and moreover it was not a usual Friday, Saturday being PP's by-election Nomination Day. We arrived at Sunflower Fortune Motel at 11:00pm, not because of the heavy traffic, not because of too many pee-breaks, smoke-stops or grub grab but more so because of too many co-drivers refusing to listen to instructions from the GPS. It was surprising despite so many "recalculating" the voice didn't say "#@&*" to those clever co-drivers. Let these pictures tell the story:

we were late because we tried to be too clever

No sarong party really.....just pretending to do some blogging

Roll call at 7:00am before leaving for PP

We melted into this crowd by 8:10am

PKR supporters gathered strength by 8:45am

Some swore we were 100,000 strong

Others were modest with 50,000 strong

But betcha the MSM would say we were only 30,000 compared to BN 600,000

Whatever, these pics don't lie

Unless these are BN people disguised as PKR look-alike

Marina taking time to greet Irene Fernendez

After a long wait and three complaints from BN, Anwar is cleared to get off the starting blocks.

Benny found out that the FRU had lady officers....being still single available....he had to find out.

Hawkeye had to prove to ahemmmm, that he was really in PP

It was definitely a good start for PKR, first off the blocks with such an awesome wave of supporters.A BN friend humbly volunteered that their supporters were in the region of less than 3,000. As we made our way out of the Nomination Centre, the clouds burst and showered everyone before they could reach their cars. Good omen.....of course.

We met up with Jeff Ooi,MP for Jelutong, Edward Lee, Assemblyman for Gasing, PJ, my Adun Doc. Nasir, Assemblyman for Kota Damansara, and Hishamudin Rais. I could not locate Sheih but would certainly meet up with him when we travel up to PP next week.

At 5:00pm as promised we met up with CheguBard who was manning one of the PP Operation Centres. He wanted to pick our brains on how blogging can help in this campaign. Of course we unloaded for a good comrade.

We reached the BlogHouse at close to 12midnight and headed to Old Town for some deserved chow.

Tomorrow....something about the BN candidate for PP......awaiting Hantu to return.....Have not seen him for some time.
