Happy Chinese New Year!
Jan. 30th, 2014 10:39 pmA good evening marking the Chinese New Year which came off as expected. Initially I was the only one of our lot but the others, none of whom I'd met before, arrived while I was fussing around and we all seemed to hit it off. Plus there were grammar jokes! I know! How rare is that?
Partway through the evening I got a plaintive text from Dr S asking me why I hadn't warned him just how debauched his evening out with some of the people from work was going to be, except that I rather thought I had! Even if I hadn't been double booked, I think I'd've still tried to find a convincing excuse to cry off...

Date: 2014-01-31 11:23 am (UTC)Happy New Year to you too, welcome in the year of the horse!
Koreans also celebrate this, for me this means having a big buffet (warm, 20 or more dishes) for breakfast at 07:30 at my parents in law.
It's always heavy starting the new year...
Best regards,
Marcel
