Lunch with funny couple

A busy day off.

I didn't wake up till 10:30 a.m., which was quite unusal for me who would always be awake at least once at around 7 or 8 a.m. I was awake around 8 a.m., the time when I normally get up for school or other things. But because I stayed up late last night (to do downloads after midnight and watch some of the tv episodes!), I was so tired that I could sleep till late today. I did laundry and cleaning as usual, before I had lunch with my funny couple friends.

The funny couple and I had dim sum lunch at Yang Sing restaurant. I can't remember when was the last time I had a meal there. They said there were discounts and so we decided to go there. The restaurant was full of Chinese and non-Chinese customers. We had 8 dim sum plates in total, including beef dumplings, thyme & pork dumplings, char siu buns, prawn rice rolls, fried rolls with shredded duck, turnip cakes, 咸水角 and pastries with carrots. They were yummy and only cost us £18 in total! Quite a reasonable price! Having been troubled by the skin rashes/itching problem recently, I should have avoided food like prawns, duck & beef. But I did ate them all! :S The funny couple talked about their Edinburgh trip that they did a week ago. My friend said her husband paid attention to a Chinese young lady when they were having a view on a high place and she 'accused' him of being 'naughty' while he was trying to defense himself and claim he was innocent! That was funny. He has been feeling exhausted by his mum who lives in another city as his mum has been telling him different problems she's got but he doesn't know if what she said is genuinue or not. My friend said her mother-in-law seems to have become a child again. I can understand how difficult it is to look after our parents who're getting old, when I think of my parents. Anyway, I had a good time with my funny couple friends.



I have to finish the draft of the anthology for my last project but it's difficult to get it done when I've almost forgotten anything about the project which was completed more than 6 months ago...

Also got to do my 'training' on ebay.. :p

Dinner:  (butter?) pie & spinach & chestnut mushroom 

A bit disappointed at the pie. It tasted ok (a bit too salty!) but had nothing in it other than a creamy sauce!

Not too bad to eat it with rice.
