Funny Cat and Rat

On my way to the park near my home, I captured a video about a cat chasing a rat.

That was really funny since the cat was basically watching and chasing the rat.

The cat had no intention to kill the rat, just played with it.

Poor rat !

Busy Day

It was again a very busy day, or call it a very productive day.

Working from 7:45am till 9pm, attended 5 meetings, 1 short birthday party, reading hundred of emails and clean up 2 piles of documents and tidied up my desk. I even went to 2 banks to make an inter-bank money transfer during lunch.

Think I am working faster than I expected myself.

Time to slow down ......

Snowing

This is the 2nd day having snowing in the morning.

It is a strange feeling while looking outside the window. It's a windy day and the snow flakes are just falling down slowly ... because they are light.

It is not that cold, 3 degrees and the snow flakes melt right after landed on ground.

The youtube video is not that great, at least can see a bit.

Will go out anyway, need some shopping, running out of food :-P

Cold Easter

Today is the coldest Easter I have so far in London, it's zero degree in the monring.

The weather reports light snow and sleet this morning. When I look outside the window, there is a light snowing and it is really a very cold day.

When I attended te Easter Vigil mass last night, it was a really cold day too.

I take the HD camera and for a video.

Maundy Thursday

Today is Maundy Thursday, I left office around 6pm and went to the 2 catholic churches near office.

Just wanted to see what's going on in these 2 churches in this holy week.

All statues were covered by clothes in St. Patrick's Church, but this was not the case in the St Anselm and St Cecilia Church near Holborn and the one near my home.

Finally I went to St. Peter and the Guardian Angels Church.

And the priest did the same washing 6 people's leg in the mass.

同一屋簷下

親情是最可貴的, 是否一定要流着同一的血才算有親呢?

我們畢竟是人啊, 所以用人的眼光和角度去看事.

天大地大, 我們不就是兄弟姊妹嗎?

復活節快到了, 想一想.

Key Hunter

Found this old Japanese TV drama, another favourite programme especially 千葉真一.

He was a very good figther in my memory.





Temperature

The temperature drops again in London, weather is not stable, rains and mostly cloudy.

That's why I am sick too.

Easy to catch cold and cough, takes time to recover. Most Londoners already adapt to this and no surprises. 

Heard about the H5N1 in HK again, a bit worry about my family and friends.

Hope everthing is fine with God's blessing.

Gathering

It was a good gathering yesterday.

With Lok and Lorenz, we had a buffet lunch and went to the Albert Hall, Prince Albert Statue and Kensington area.

The weather changed rapidly and started raining, so we had to stay at the gift shop in Kensingtin Palace.

The dinner was a fantastic one since Carmen made a lot of food for total 7 of us.

We should have more gathering like this.

:-)

Bionic Man/Woman

Six Million Dollar Man and Bionic Woman


Yesterday we talked about the Japanese Drama in 1975, this time want to mention about an Amercian TV series in 1974-1975.

I remembered we sat down at home every saturday night and watched this programme.

Good to remember this.

Say Hello to Steve Austin and Jaime Sommers.

GMEN 75

應該沒有很多人記得這套日本電視劇, 1975年的作品.

當我很年幼的時候, 這套警匪片己經深入我的記憶.

有正義的一面, 有人情泠暖, 也有理性和現實矛盾衝突的動作片.

可以在此重温.

Pet Fishes

One of my colleagues in HK asked me where to buy pet fishes as gift; I pointed him to the Goldfish Market (or Pet Fish Market) near the Prince Edward MTR station. This is the centralised area of selling good pet fish, from the cheapest to the most expensive one. Here is the official link. http://cyberfair.fixip.net/shop_market002.htm
There are 3 good shops along the left side of Tung Choi Street (towards Prince Edward station direction) I used to buy fishes and fish tank accessories there.
Below is my fish tank in London today, actually shipped from HK when I came over. They are the gold fishes in my fish tank now.

Personally, I would not recommend giving fishes as gift, being a pet fish fans, I respect fishes as they are live animal like dogs and cats. However they are more vulnerable to death than dogs and cats. Reason is that fish may easily die in 1 or 2 weeks later because lacking of appropriate environs (e.g. water and food). And having the right environs costs a lot of money and time … :-)  
If they died, it distorts the purpose as a gift anyway.
