How many  $15.00 LUNCH SPECIALS  make a lawyer?

 

 

Our Chinese friends at Bomaderry are the most hardworking people we know. Just the two of them, with no extra help and no time off, they run their small  WELCOME Chinese   Restaurant  seven days a week, selling $15 Lunch Specials.

 

 

Yesterday, their daughter graduated as a lawyer! All those thousands of $15 Lunch Specials sold over so many years have finally paid off! And the parents could not be any prouder than they were at yesterday's graduation ceremony at the University of Sydney. What a happy family!

 

The parents took a day off - the first in many years - to attend the graduation

 

But there is more: their son Kelvin is also studying for his degree in Mechanical Engineering in a couple of years' time. Then, if his sister's lawnmower breaks down, he can fix it, and if he runs into trouble with the law, she can fix it. And if either of them feels hungry, they can go to their parents'  WELCOME Chinese Restaurant  for a $15 Lunch Special.

After all, that's were it all began. We hope they will never forget it!
