Finally over the jetlag, and mostly settled back in. Lots of unpacking things from boxes, arranging furniture. Did the big shop, filled the cupboards and fridge. Chinese supermarket in Greenwich a big winner.
Starting to look for a job. Any leads?
Give me a shout if you're in London, we can catch up.
We've just been to Lynn's hometown in Shandong province, to stay with her parents, and leave our pet chihuahua "NiuNiu" with them. Then across the bay to Dalian city, catching up with old friends, far too many seafood banquets for me! A few photos from the trip at my flickr.
Now back in Beijing, packing up and seeing friends, before we move to London at the end of the week. Hope to catch up with some of you then!
Birthday BBQ at the park in front of my folks' place, this Saturday 9th Feb, from 5pm. Please bring BBQ meat, drinks, and perhaps a folding chair or blanket.
"Nations get a chance to change course every now and then. When things become errant, a wise country adjusts its direction. It understands that it is being granted an appointment with history. On this coming Saturday, this country should take that opportunity by driving a stake through the dark heart of Howard's reactionary government."
I've found a boardgames club here in Beijing, all chinese people, so I'm off to give it a go. I'm hoping that playing euro games will transcend language, and I can make some new friends!
