Back to Work

Well, for Catherine it is. I continue to enjoy the freedom of being made redundant and the joy of not having to go to the office everyday talking about when I am getting laid off and seeing all the excited faces. Today I left home at 8:50 to go to a meeting in town, sunroof and windows open, 27 degrees and just taking my time amongst all the people stressing to get to their offices. Once in town I sat down for a coffee, logged on, checked some news and my emails and then eventually pottered over to the office. It's great watching the rat race when you are not one of them.

It also became clear to me today that work will come my way again and most likely in the not too distant future. The longer I am in this predicament the better I feel about it. It's the break I was yearning and I have realised there are jobs out there that are so much more me than what I was doing.

Anyway, the weekend was a good one. Great weather and steaming temperatures. Saturday was a lazy morning around home followed by a swim and dinner at the club.

Sunday was mothers day. We made a visit to Disneyland which was a great day out for all. Catherine enjoyed the day out with the kids and we all had fun. The big girls rode Space Mountain for the first time which they both loved.

The play in the wet zone was the end of the stay, another Disney dress was required for the trip home and that always gets expensive when you have 3 young daughters....but hey, life is for living. I have posted some pics up on Picasa. Click HERE to see them.

We've been to see the Inland Revenue about our taxes to pay prior to leaving as it looks pretty likely we will be back in the UK in the very near future. A bit of a shock there and the number needs to be confirmed and paid in the next week to get everything in order for us but it all looks like it will be under control. The process has started, keep your eyes peeled if you are in Hong Kong for anything we will be selling, I will post details or links to details here soon.
