Lantau

Amazingly, Michael based in Australia guessed that Shirley and I are bound for Hong Kong and to begin with we will be staying on Lantau Island at the Silvermine Beach Hotel. Possibly tongue-in-cheek, one respondent expressed surprise that a teacher should be able to fund a trip to Hong Kong. Hells bells, I have a first class honours degree. I have taught in secondary schools for thirty two years without a single day off for illness and I have been a head of department for seventeen years. Shirley is a senior practice nurse specialising in the treatment of diabetes. We have successfuly raised a family. Why shouldn't we be able to fund a trip to Hong Kong? We don't smoke. We don't have expensive hobbies. We live in a basic semi-detached house.... so Hong Kong here we come where no doubt we will go to see The Big Buddha...
Or perhaps we will try some fresh crap... Mmmmmm...
