Laugh
Guys I eagerly anticipate the latest episode that awaits me when I open your emails. The skill you have in telling the story often has me laughing out loud in the office which provokes lots of comments. Your blogs and wonderful, entertaining and make a cold wet winters day here feel much better. All the best. Cherie

Yummy Durian
Very brave Bernard- durian (imho) tastes like vomit and smells like dried vomit- so well done you for experiencing the local delicacy.
