Visitor pit stop...

In a bid to stop Ben posting random crap/updates on his growth I'll do a quick update on some cool things that have happened recently. Basically the lack of posting is down the the crazy month long visitor-athon that has just ended - Adam's visit having been almost overlapped by my Mum and Pete's arrival. All had a great time, saw the sights, ate a lot and generally enjoyed Honk Kong. Now I have a few days rest (well, apart from having to go to school!) until we jet off to Vietnam for a few days (yay!) and then my Dad gets here and it starts again! Madness!

Anyway, Wednesday was the final performance of 'Romeo and Juliet' that I have been working on up at the uni, they did really well and I was rather proud and also quite nervous for them!

The balcony scene
Men in Tights getting violent
Dance-off Shakespeare style

The death scene
However, the highlight of the week was getting a free ticket with the school to go and see the Friday night of the Hong Kong Rugby 7s! My job was basically to walk the girls to the stadium then we were free to do what we wanted i.e. head to the over 18s area! As I know nothing about rugby I wasn't sure how much I'd enjoy it but I really got into it and it's very easy to understand, the atmosphere was amazing although it was getting rather messy by the time we decided to leave!

The first game (hence the empty stands!) - Fiji vs Sri Lanka



England vs Hong Kong - despite being in the gweilo stands I was definitely in the minority cheering for England...


but actually I didn't mind!

Anyway, that's about it for now - bring on the Easter holidays and Vietnam!

I'll say it before Sam does - Hunky men in tight shorts - What is there to not understand? Will it still be on when we get there? Any ideas why the hotels are so booked up and expensive from about the 12th April? Wouldn't want to miss anything.
Love

Quality over quantity Ben, if only you'd learn that simple lesson...

7 months ago we took a trip to the electronics store. Whilst there it was decided that i would buy a blender for the flat, Robyn would buy a kettle. 7 Months on there is still no sign of a kettle.

This little story can be applied to the blog, the defence rests.
