Happy Chinese New Year!

Xīn Nián Kuài Lè (新年快乐). It's now the Year of the Earth Dog. I will be celebrating in Telford with the Deyin Taijiquan Institute. Wherever you are, have a good one.

What I did this weekend

We started Chinese New Year early on Saturday, taking part in the celebrations at the New Wolsey Theatre Ipswich with the Suffolk Chinese Family Welfare Association. It was lovely to be part of this. I thoroughly enjoyed the rest of the show and the theatre people were friendly and welcoming. I'm only sorry I missed the unicycle act because I was getting ready for our performance.
