chimps could be nicer than mankind

tons of emails and tight schedules

Exhausting!!!

Lunch with Mag & Jennifer.

If we had known what others are shouldering ......................

Troubles & worries are forever around. Just see how you face them.

day time watchman has retired

We gave him laisee and some tiny gifts. A man worthy of respect as he was so dutiful. And most important of all, with pleasant manners.

safe journey

Take care! I miss you!

her favourite

For hugs and kisses! Life is not the same without toy pets. Companions for growing up and a soft spot for grown-ups. A must for babies, children and girls in love. Fond memories for the aged.

kids are cute

no work and all play is refreshing

Playgroup. Parknshop. Lunch. Min bought a dress.

Dinner at AVA.

Porpor could sleep well for the past few nights.

hot springs & crab dinner enjoyable

Parknshop has moved to the other side of the arcade.

Little Koala is going to continue her study in the foreign land. Poor Mom will miss her. She used to play candle lanterns downstairs. Now she is grown up ..............

Time is moving forward and never returns.

mid-autumn festival - Jeff's birthday

Home. Sweet home.

Mother and daughter - quiet & detached.

A couple came from Sydney. A couple came from Chicago. One with Nikon and one with Canon.

A man works in Bhutan and returns to HK a few times during the year. His girl friend is a Blue Girl Beer PR.

A couple with a daughter of 7 - very impolite girl, kicking the seat at her front all the time and yelling and disrupting while the tour guide talked to us. Parents had no intention of teaching her at all.

A pleasurable trip.

Much more signages in English and Chinese. Lots of broadcast in Putonghua. Japan has a super toilet system and culture.

hello kitty land

Shinjuku.

Disney Sea tomorrow.

A nice group.

Grateful for everything.

Staying at View Hotel. Quiet.

a rosegold ring

She promised to buy me some jewellery when she would have the earning power.

She kept her promise and here it is. Very sweet. 2 pay cheques.

Will fly tomorrow.

Anise knows dog from cat and cat from deer.

Hurray!

The herb tea effects. My cough is diminishing.

I am happy coz I don't like coughing.

Will be seeing Anise this evening. Hurray!

Joyce is a good chef. A warm and generous hostess. I like every bit of the dinner at her place.

Herb Tea

We 4 have won mark six but for only $300+. Not really sufficient for a celebration dinner. However, the luck is awesome.

I have had such stubborn coughing and I have had enough anti-biotics and tablets already. Hence, I went to a Chinese medical practitioner who adminstered Chinese herb tea. Initially, I have 3 packs for 3 days. See how it effects.

Premium Beijing donuts - Taste

Kitty is studying 3rd year Design in Polytech U. We had dinner at Festival Walk. How times flies! I always remember her helping Min to carry the luggage to her en suite in the Orchard House.

YU cotton shirts

One maroon and one sky blue - same pattern - with tiny white flowers.

We earn money as well as knowledge at work. No complaint.

Dinner at Anis' place with I J & J. Carbonara. Parma ham with Hami melon. Rocket with blue cheese. Mushroom cream soup. Pears in red wine.

going the distance - drew barrymore

Sushi and the movie and the baked potaotes. Little Koala likes such.

Dinner at KT.

seafood casserole

Ellen cooked some soup base with tomatoes, potatoes, carrots & onions. Then, she added fish chunks, prawns, a crab and some venus claims. White wine. But she left out chopped parsley. She made a loaf of bread with a bread maker.

We talked and talked and talked. We played mahjong, of course. I lost $200.00. :(

Mary has started her occupation as air-hostess.

Where is Karin????

Australian Pristine oysters

HK$15.00 each. The girl told me they will be fatter in 2 months' time. They are farmed in Coffin Bay, South Australia. Zero pollution. Named the nation's best food.

I met Anis during lunch time and Ber, too. Min and I discussed a lot about love stories - real life and novels. It is fun to talk to her.

she is cute

Mom & 2 daughters had lunch together at Hal's. No longer an easy arrangement nowadays.

Anis b is so lovely. She knows the 26 alphabets. We spent 2 hours in PP & Queensway and Great. How enjoyable!

Jin Yong - Louis Cha

飛雪連天射白鹿笑書神俠倚碧鴛

He has such a rich and legendary life.

venus clam again

We may try next time: to stir fry clams + minced garlic with oil and salt, then add chicken broth and white wine, in the wok, covered for one minute. Ah, chopped parsley.

Venus Clam

Pingpong in the morning. Walk in the afternoon. Fine dining - venus clams boiled in white wine, oysters with ginger & spring onions, salmon head stewed with carrots, potatoes & onions. Stewed mushroom and pork soup. A variety of fruits and ice-cream. We celebrate Patrick's birthday. Such good time to be remembered.

Jasmine

Busy busy busy. Lunch at Sai Wan Ho. Taiji class. Visited Minnie Mou.

Dinner with Micky.

I am very very sleepy now.

playgroup Do Re Me - musical class

The hardest thing for Porpor is to stand up and sit down so many times within one hour. Gracefully, in style & not clumsily in any event.

I bought Minnie Mou a Swatch wrist watch. Pinkish tone. She likes it very much.

Hair - haircut and treatment. A kunzite pendant set in rose gold and framed with tiny diamonds + a rose gold necklace. Must not retire so to earn and own such beautiful things in this world.
