Happy year of the Ox to everyone. Sounded like a combat zone here from midnight until 1 AM, and then again at about 6-7 AM this morning. Over the next few days, as businesses reopen the firecrackers will be going off.

According to local tradition, this is a year to get down to business and work hard.

When my wife decides she's had enough. I'd be back tomorrow if she'd agree to it. Our eldest has been back since school started this Autumn and in one more year our youngest will be ready for Grade 1. She wants both our kids to be fluent in Mandarin.
