How on earth does the water flow inside this lot to give me a luke-warm shower (with an orchestral overtone)?
I'm sorry but today is dull. I've not really done anything exciting, been to work and seen some more bus workshops and I went shopping.

Dead or alive?
Hi John, we all love reading your blog. About the fish - are they for pets or dinner? And about the buses - is Hong Kong the place to buy really cheap anoraks?
