Haha! All good fun. I hope your busy time is productive and goes smoothly.

What about a western cafe (like the joints you see in Kunming) would that work wherever you are? A proper British Breakfast- also 3 or 4 Chinese dishes that we can do well? I have a couple of pensions so I don't need to make a killing. I am thinking that when Esther gets to five we will be obliged to live in UK. I feel that for her Mandarin and the companionship of other babies China might be good for us to spend the next few years. I could rent the place off here be it ever so humble.
