It's -1 or -2. Seems normal for many of you but bloody freezing for me. I had never seen it snow until today.

Nearly makes up for the 2 pairs of knitted socks, shoes, thermal pants, stockings, jeans, 2 thermal tops, jumper, ski jacket, beanie and gloves while typing in a HEATED room.  ananananan

Guangzhou was lovely and warm on Monday. What a rude awakening.

Still warm in southern Guangdong province. Why is it 29C/84F in February?? Glad I don't have to teach in a warm classroom anymore.

Warm? WARM???

I've forgotten what frikkin 'warm' is!!!

Raining cats and dogs (ok, I'm teaching 'idioms' right now.....does it show?)....
Told the FAO I'm thinking of buying some ducks, geese, and chickens....thank the gods I have a decent mop, 'cos these CCC buildings are something else!
(again, refer to Eric for definition!)

Bought an umbrella today (yay, finally!...duh - haven't owned one since '86!)...

No-one told me it was monsoon season in Zhejiang!!
If it wasn't for the delightful students (and the crap accomodation they have to put up with), I'd be off to warmer climes..........at least in Kerala, it might be raining, but it's a "warm" rain......

Thunder, lightning and rain...I think Thor may have been a little too deep in his cups these days and somehow managed to steer his chariot over China instead of Scandinavia. He's probably been arrested now for not having a visa, which would explain why the weather has slightly improved.
Warmth...that's that thing that makes it unnecessary to wear gloves inside, yes? Just wait til summer comes, then there'll be warmth.
CCC buildings....Crappy, Commie, Concrete buildings...may not be a PC name but it sure fits agagagagag

Ahoy there, Matey!

....so the deluge is to end so soon?.......bummer for the geese I just installed in the bathroom. Not to worry - methinks we'll all be good for a barbie at the weekend, what?

Once more unto the beach.........urr........breach.....Lin'an has no beach - this could change before the weekend - the mud puddles expandeth by the hour!

Just emailed our oft-overlooked FAO - "what's up with the monsoon, dude???"

At least we have no snakes - our Good St. Paddy saw fit to drive them all out!

I think so. Thor is in violation of the International Deity Act of 1954, so he's looking at some hard time. Also, it turns out he didn't check Mjolnir in customs, big no-no bringing magical lethal warhammers into China.

Huh...don't think the FAO can do much about the monsoon. We have no snakes?? I was sort of hoping they would eat the cats...

Well, maybe not a barbie this weekend but there is a nice little bar down by the river you need to be introduced to. There's a bottle of whisky there with my name on it. Literally. agagagagag

Synthette, it's OK, I can sympathize. Fortunately I'm moving before the season that requires me to ride a walrus to work.
