In case you are wondering what this has to do with expat life in England....

A Chinese artist did a wonderful fireworks exhibition over the Thames.  Chinese restaurants all over England are full to the brim.  And all week long, if you venture into Chinatown in London or elsewhere, you will see nice decorations, see wonderful smiles and probablly will be greeted.  Enjoy.  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

I too was born in the year of the dog.

Funny enough though, several of my closest friends are dragons. [smiley=antlers.gif]
