Greetings to my Chinese readers

你好

Well the good news is that the Blog has now reach 6 Countries. With Hong Kong coming in at number 3 in the league table (according to Google Analytics) of the country with the most visits to these Blog pages. So for all my Chinese visitors: Hi - 嗨 or maybe hai. Grammatically maybe I should write Hello - 哈啰 or the accurate ha luo for a general greeting as there is more than one visitor. Just in case I have got it wrong, then 你好 - ni hao. Ni or 你 means 'you' and hao or '好' means good. This is a bit like the Welsh language in what you see isn't always what you get. So Good You everyone, and enjoy the read. And maybe when and after I visit Hong Kong in 2009, I can continue the Blog with both a Chinese and African theme.

Mr. Posty

Well I managed to send Cudjo's present to Africa. For the sum total of £2 something, that's for the postage and not the present! I priced up sending the two parcels to Jeffers and that came in at £40 to £50 per parcel. Phew! A Plan 'B' is urgently needed. Apparently anything under 2kg in weight is a lot cheaper. Lucky for Jeffery that I don't have to take a saw to the present! Instead, I can separate the bits into their component parts and look to send 8 parcels in all. Gosh, I feel like a right Mr. Posty with all this packaging and labelling. Still, that's what friends are for.
