Back to work

Chinese New Year ended this week. Sunday we had another evening of fireworks as we welcomed in the God of Fortune. This time more fireworks, but more firecrackers which went on into Tuesday!
Normality returned as everyone came back into the office on Wednesday. Stories of holidays in Thailand, Hainan, time with relatives and friends. It is very similar to the western Christmas / New year holiday. Plenty of eating and drinking, being couch potatoes!
The weather was much warmer during the week. The golf played (with much surprise to the locals) in short sleeves. Tomorrow back down to 3 or 4 degrees and sleet and snow.
Saturday (today) was an official work day, to make up for the long holiday. Makes it a long week and only one golf game this weekend.
Got some more good news this week, went to Carrefour for my weekly shop and found they now stock Quaker oats and Kit Kats. Bliss, off to finish the box.
Due to internet problems - have not been able to post until today.
Wonderful Valentines day in the Office.
Witnessed a fantastic act today in the office. The Sales director bought a single red rose for every female in the office. You should see the smiles it brought. Old and young, married and single were delighted to receive them, even the ones who had received flowers from husband and boyfriend.
