New Year

First, did you have a good Christmas and enjoy the new year day?

I did, very much so. Bobo stayed with me since 23rd Dec, and flew home last night. We had a lot of fun at SL + HY's place for Christmas and new year. We also went to Prague (in Czech Republic) on 28 - 31st Dec. It was a nice, relaxing, warming (but chilli) trip.

Two jokes from Bobo that I must tell you people:
Story I:
We were on the bus, going pass Trafalgar Square. Bobo suddenly asked, "Ah, how tall is Eiffel Tower? Is it any taller than that (pointing to the Nelson's Column)?". I replied, "............ Well............. em..............".
For your information, the Nelson's Column in Trafalgar Square is 185 feet high, and Eiffel Tower in Paris is 986 feet high. And we went up to the Eiffel Tower with CL and CF in March 2005.

Story II:
We were having this very joyful dinner by Tower Bridge on 2nd Jan. We were playing a game of thinking a name (Chinese name) very quickly, with a surname given by the other person. We started with some very common surname, like Wong, Fung, Lee, Lam etc... Then I said Sun (孫), and Bobo quick replied Sun Ji Hai (孫繼海). I freezed for half a second, because I didn't expect her to say this name. Then I asked her how she knew this guy. She said, "Cher, everybody knows la. It's in a lot of history books."
Well, if you really don't know who Sun Ji Hai is, he's a very good Chinese footballer, currently playing for Manchester City. I think she was thinking of someone like Sun Yat Sin (孫中山).

Bobo, I miss you, just as much as you do.

Everybody is saying their 2006 resolutions, mine are:
