Back Home - Two Months On

Sorry for the lack of updates, just had been busy settling in. You might think "huh? settling in? I thought you just coming back home?"

Yes and no. Its been almost 3 years, and a lot of things has changed back home. First the roads have changed and I haven't been driving for 3 years, so I'm a little rusty on the roads. Secondly, loads of new buildings have sprung out of nowhere, so the scenery needs a little getting used to.

The only think which hasn't changed are the damn neighbours. Bunch of free-loading wankers...thats another story.

Have been taking a lot of photos recently, but I will show some nice sky ones, because that is one thing I missed when I was away from home.

Other things dones since we been back:

1. Found (2) schools who will accept Amelie for nursery.
2. Bought another car, 56 plate, Mazda2 Capella 1.4, black, 6000 miles, only £4750.
3. Sorted out the home for work.
4. Eat loads of dim-sum.
5. Became an uncle a few days ago. Congrats to Jimmy and Caroline.
6. Had gout attack and bone spurs, so could walk for a couple of weeks.
7. Got a new HP printer for photos and stuff, nice.
8. Invited to Kalps wedding.
9. Getting more sleep.

Thats it for now. If anything interesting I can think off, I will sure to post here.

Hope everyone in Taiwan is fine. I do miss you guys and gals!

Until next time.

Rainy Weekend

What a way to end the weekend, being soaked top-to-bottom in heavy rain! It came very suddenly and we just wanted to get home, so we took the chance and ran all the way home in the rain. It was refreshing actually, I have had a lot on my mind recently and the being soaked certainly gave the brain a bit of a reboot. But then I realised Taiwan rain is quite acidic, not a good thing. Anyhow, I have updated my homepage with something useful for the lunch hours. Its a random lunch selector, which basically displays a picture of a local eatery which we would go to for lunch. It has been pain in the rear-end when deciding where to go for lunch. There are so many choices in the area where I work, so having something like this may ease the troublesome decision which we all make on a daily basis. I've also made use of the ned 8MB ADSL line by doing a bit of downloading and listening to online radio. Certainly makes a difference and if you guys can get it, then get it! I just read th...

Superman Snappy

Snap the man of steel and score points! My first attempt, I got 82. This will just have to do until I get a new camera.

Homeward Bound (For 2 Weeks)

We're setting off later this evening to UK for a couple of weeks. Can't wait to see Manchester and Ashton-under-Lyne again, not to mention to catch with friends and family and of course do a bit of driving! I haven't been driving for more than a year now since I have been in Taiwan, feels like my legs have gone! We're taking a lot pineapple cakes, which Taiwan is famous for, back to friends and family in UK, and some other gifts too. On the way back, we'll bring back all sorts of stuff to Taiwan, so another post on that when I get back. Not sure whether I'll be able to get online as often, but will try my best to keep my blog updated as much as possible while I am over in UK. My grand parents also arrived in UK from Hong Kong to attend my brother Jimmy's wedding. So time would probably be spent travelling around and take to places to see and have fun. Don't worry, as always, I'll be taking pictures! It will be Amelie's first time visit to UK...
