Home for Christmas...another quiet day?
Well it was Christmas! I am used to having Christmases alone as for the past few years I have been working and my family have take the opportunity to go to Germany without me! So, I was expecting a sleepy day in front of the telly watching some rubbish or other. How wrong I was! I suppose it was ten o'clock and I was sitting unshaved unwashed on the sofa wondering what not to do, when I got a text from Taylor. Taylor was the young woman who took me and her friend swimming in the Taoping river last summer. She is heavily pregnant now. She had heard that I had had my appendix out and that it was Christmas and that I'd be alone. She had a plan! She would be over in the afternoon, what did I want to eat. Taylor lives in Tongren, and despite it only being an hour away by bus/car, it is a whole new world! They have things there! What did I want to eat? Yikes! Cheese. I have not eaten Cheese of any sort...
