TIGER TALK

TIGER TALK - 17.09.08
Time for input from the Dad. Since we are living in Hong Kong, and I was born in the year of the Tiger -- you get the reason for the Blog title.
Well we really should have started this Blog some time ago. We are quite a connected family, with more laptops in the house than TVs, but we seem to have continued with using many analogue forms of communicating family life. Well lately we've bumped into a few blogs with friends and extended family, and so over dinner tonight we decided to start.
As I said, we should have started earlier, this year we have had plenty to write about: three typhoons in HK; trips to Australia, China, New Zealand, and VietNam; and lot's of interesting visitors and fun times. However it's no fun writing about the past, and those of you we catch up with often have heard those tales. I'm going to ask my better half (Monkey Madness) to give you an update about our recent trip to the Beijing Olympics, and then from then on it is an update of what the future hands out.
In closing, it will be a quiet late September and October for me. My beloved Magpies have dumped out of the Aussie Rules finals, and the Yankees are about to miss their first post-season since the early nineties. Good thing the Formula One is a tight contest or I would have to spend more weekend time with these other monkeys! :-)
Cheers
