I had a glass of Chinese wine and a glass of Thai wine here at work, the tasting notes for the thai wine described it as having a watermelon bouquet, although rabbit hutch was the overwelming aroma for me ...it tasted like a glass of mekong delta ...absolutely delightful.

I am sending you a bottle to celebrate your belated birthday. The Chinese have equally as far to come with their wine making. I wonder if it is due to the poluted irrigation or just a strange inabillaity to make wine. It's all Mao's doing.

I wish I was a gambling woman, if I was I would have made a minor amount when the favourite Pete won Big Brother last week. As predicted by me in early days.

Anyways, I was out when that announcement was made, but apparently he went all tourettes on the house and made a big mess. I was out seeing Bob Log III, a one man blues band at the Spitz in East London, He wears a helmet with a telephone attached to it instead of using a microphone.There was no airconditioning in there, I thought I might faint and wished I was at home watching Pete win. It is nice that he won.

I miss big brother, even though I never really watched it, it was just nice knowing that it was there like an old crazy and surgically enhanced friend to catch up with when you get a minute.
