Didn't get to do a post yesterday, sorry. So here's a bit about the day. First, Dennis got his Mercedes, see below, he's over the moon.
This car is ten years old (I think), very big and very comfortable, I fell asleep within five minutes of getting in !!!
Yesterday Ayat wanted to change some cheques, so we had to go to Dongcheng (another area of Dongguan), an hours drive away. Got there and had a "technical" problem so went to another bank, they had never dealt in GBP before and we had to wait an hour for them to set up a new account (yawn !!!).
We got back just in time to see Andy off, he's gone home now, if you're reading this you lucky man, hope you got home safely.
When Andy had left we had guests round for a "barbie", an Ayat & Dennis special, Cai, Lobo and his girlfriend Marie came to eat with us. Nice evening & good conversation, Marie speaks excellent English.
So here we have Ayat and Dennis preparing the food, it was quite delicious, these guys know how to cook, puts me to shame ! couldn't even begin to compete with them.
You should have seen all the washing up, stacks and stacks of dishes, when the honored guests departed we tried to get Maggie to do it but she went to bed.
Went to work this morning, this afternoon we walked around town, uneventful. Might go somewhere tomorrow, possibly Guangzhou (next city north of here).
Not much else, so back soon. I didn't get any quiz suggestions !!! anyone interested ?
Song for the day : Strange Town, The Jam.
Hope you watched the "barbie" cooking carefully!!!
ReplyDeleteI shall expect more than burgers and chicken next summer.
Agree with anonymous, it is just like BB shall we put Jade Goody back in there?????
Remaining anonymous, there's already a Jade in there but I really can't name names, I'm sure Neil will guess who it is. Luckily the people trapped in there are not easily offended by Jades comments.
ReplyDeleteOh no ! I might just have blown my cover.
Carry on having a good time Neil, I'll think of some tasks.
