Sunday 6th

All arrived safe and tired, but glad the travelling was over. Hong Kong was hot, humid but fascinating - a real mixture of old and new. Our guide was really interesting (even the girls thought so!) and we saw more in 6 hours than we would otherwise have done in weeks! we promised ourselves showers at HK airport, but at £15 each, we just got back on the plane smelly! All of our luggage arrived safely and everything was let in past Immigration - although they did question the beans in the bum of the Harrod's (or is it Harrods' - or even Harrods??) teddy!!!

The house is fine. When the sun comes round in the mornings it's really warm! No Aga though, and the oven has some very strange heiroglyphs on the knob!! The pool looks nice and clear but also nice and cold!!! We'll give it a month or so before braving it I think. It's spring here - daffodils, cherry blossom and skippy lambs (lots of them!!)

R starts work on Tues, the girls have interviews at school on Weds, and start the following Monday. Not sure what I'll do with myself then, but I'll have to think of something!
Having trouble organising a proper broadband connection, but R's working on it, so emails a bit sparse till then, and limited Facebook.....
