Yesterday was the first day of the Chinese New Year. It was also Cold. Wet. Drizzly. In short: Miserable.
Hey-ho. . . Friends tell me such weather is 'auspicious' for what is regarded hereabouts as the 'first day of spring'. They possibly made that up. To make it tolerably better able to bear.
Yes, I know: rain is neither good nor bad, 'tis thinking makes it so. But it also pays to carry an umbrella and wrap up warm.
Anyway, I am pleased to report that spring has indisputably sprung: this mid-afternoon it is 20C and bright sunshine. Hooray! ('Cors, that may change.)
Be that as it may, ce soir is to be spent chez Mike + Wai-fong for A Chinese New Year Dinner. Hip, hip, hooray!
