	Good afternoon Sylvia :-) Hope you don't find the coffee shop full of firemen, and policemen today :-D Sue - The children from that part of the world are delightful, and leave a lasting impression. Many live in poverty, and that also leaves an impression.

	Ho everyone I just had a bacon butty for my lunch (a late lunch :-) ) I had to make it myself ................ and OH didn't even wash the frying pan for me :-( I'm blaming that thread by Uzzi on General Chat for making me think of it :-)

	Of course that counts Linda :-D The owners of Chinese restaurants are usually nice people - if you ignore the occasional shouting coming from the kitchens :-D

	The costumes were beautiful and one of the dances featured little girls in full costume. They were delightful especially when they forgot their routine and started giggling :-D I'm worried about your knee Linda :-(

	The people in our Chinese restaurant are nic,e if that counts :-D

	That sounds so interesting Sue, how nice to be invited to their celebrations. Nice to go somewhere different. The Duchess's sister was in Vietnam fro the Chines New Year. She e-mailed me some interesting photo's. They loved the country, but found Hanoi a bit much to cope with. I always found the peoples of South East Asia so friendly, and happy, and polite. :-)

	That's what I think. OH took a group of Vietnamese ladies for a day trip last week. They invited us to their Chinese New Year celebration. As it was in a community centre in our town we decided it would be interesting. We had a wonderful time with great entertainment, food and the friendliest people who were delighted to see us and made us so welcome.

	Oh yes I forgot it was Sunday there. So what did you get up to last night Sue :-D
Member Since: August 2006 Posts: 22,648 Send Message	Tecwyn	Report	28 Feb 2015 21:50
	Good Morning Sue :-D You are allowed to sleep in on Sunday morning. :-)

	Maisie got her up yesterday. Obviously she is being quiet today. Shall we make a loud noise? :-D
Member Since: November 2004 Posts: 24,291 Send Message	SueMaid	Report	28 Feb 2015 21:48
	Sorry - we had a late night last night and I slept in :-(
Member Since: February 2004 Posts: 25,342 Send Message	LindainHerriotCountry	Report	28 Feb 2015 21:47
	They would have very strong knees if they did. Sue is becoming a real lazy bones these days

	I think Sue has been kept back in church, to collect the Hymn books :-D

	Well there is that. His advice is ridiculous. Some people are glued to the tele all day. Suppose they took him seriously :-0
Member Since: February 2004 Posts: 25,342 Send Message	LindainHerriotCountry	Report	28 Feb 2015 21:29
	Maybe he doesn't realise how long I watch TV for :-D
