New Look


I recently changed the template on my blog, since the last one was doing something weird. On my work computer, the green image which it uses as part of the header seemed to have disappeared, which meant the header title was invisible. Pooey! So I changed it to a different one, one which doesn't used images (in case images are blocked). I think the new look isn't bad, and still gentle to the eyes to the reader. What do you think?

I've also added links to my favourite places on the web and links to other blogs, not to mention the new food links!

On the home front, Amelie is still having her cold, but its clearing up now. Sadly Chien-yu has seem to caught it, so it looks like its doing the rounds. It would be me soon I think, so I'm pumping myself full of vitamin C to boost the immune system a little.

Chien-yu is going to the hospital on Friday night for a small operation, so its going to be a busy weekend for all of us. Its nothing major, so don't worry! She should be out by Sunday, or Monday at the latest. Fingers crossed!

OK, I gotta get some work done. Catch you all later.

Lunch with Grandma Ng - Japanese Style

For lunch, after praying at Grandpa's resting place, we set off to a local Japanese restuarant which Grandma likes very much. I went for the roasted eel in teriyaki sauce with rice. It was really really nice, and could have had another two bowls. Grandma's favourite dish was the barbecued squid. We also have pan-fried dumplings, beef rice-don, and my Aunt ordered her favourite sushi rolls. Really enjoyed that meal! More photos here .

Its been a while!

Hey all, sorry, had been away for so long.  Sometimes have so many things going on and so many thoughts, not sure what to write. Life update is that we've moved out of the in-laws place, and renting an apartment in the city.  It's not brand new. No lifts, and we live on the top floor, but it's my home now. Just recently been in hospital for stomach ulcers causing internal bleeding.  Nightmare, when you wasn't allowed to eat or drink for 4 days.  But I'm back home now, but only this morning, I discovered I now have a gout attack.  FML. Anyway, life continues to surprise or annoy me in new and fascinating ways. Mimi is still with us by the way, always staying loyal and guarding. Until next time.

Homeward Bound

Hello again, thought I'd give an update of what's going on in my mundane life. After chatting with my wife, We will be moving back to my parents's home in Manchester (well Ashon-under-Lyne to be precise). We feel it would be better for her to have people around like our friends and family should anything happen. Plus I get to hang out with my friends again! As with my work, I will still be working at my current job in London. The plan is that I will be travelling to London to work in the office for three days (Tuesday to Thrusday) and work from home in Manchester for the other two days. I felt it was a good compromise, and I'll get something back for the travel and accommodation costs (some but not all), plus I'll will be stilling working and earning the dough. Now we're in the middle of putting stuff in boxes ready for the big move in mid-June. Dug out a lot of stuff that we don't need, so we'll be holding a car boot sale to make some ca...
