A rather late Christmas and Easter

I got back to the UK this morning, returning to a boxful of Christmas and Easter presents! I was rather surprised and it felt a little wierd opening all these things in the middle of summer! But it was cool - lots of nice chocolate eggs - which i really missed out on while I was in Hong Kong (somehow Easter just doesn't get much attention there. Why? Four words: Sam Nin Faai Lok! Chinese New Year is far more important to them.) Then there was the deoderant and shower gel - and ok, I'll admit that I did actually need some as I'd left mine back in HK - but I am returning in two weeks time, so its not that long a wait really!! I found the super-duluxe-red-flashy-sports-car-masquerading-as-air-freshner toy also rather amusing. But hey! Its nice to know people still remembered me while I was away, and its nice to be back.

Graduation beckons...

Lots of Links

OK, so the last few posts of mine have all been about links to friends sites. This is mainly to remind me of where they are and to visit them often. But instead of filling my blog with random posts like that, I'm gonna have a page that collects all the links and lists them. (Cause adding them to the right nav bar takes too long!) So here goes:

Reconnecting

Ok, so I'm about to head back to the UK for a short two week stint there and today I came across a load of old friends blogs', anyway since I don't own a laptop, and my memory has the capacity of several small amoebas, I'm gonna have to write them down here.

• First up its Ms MacFie - http://muchloved.blogspot.com/ much rambling verbiage to be found here
• Second its the eloquent Jude: http://judesmith.blogspot.com/
• And thirdly, the old stalwart of LCET, Chris Curtis: http://chriscurtis.typepad.com/weblog/

All guys from my past who really rocked and I regretted losing contact with...time to change that.

My Chinese Name

I dug up an old email from a friend today who had sent me my name in Chinese

Now you know! (Assuming of course that you have Chinese font's installed - trust me you'll know if you do.)

Flickr is actually turning out to be pretty cool. So cool, in fact, that I have moved my photo website onto it. Click on this photo and check out the 'notes' that I've added.

It integrates straight into Blogger, so I can easily blog a photo. Now that's neat
