Baby Group Lunch

We had a lovely lunch with Rachel's baby group friends - this time with associated husbands. We had a great lunch out in Wan Chai at the Quarterdeck, and despite there being 6 children under 12 months old, there were no major meltdowns (George was close, with a little tearfest right at the start - but he chilled out and all was good after that).  I took a few photos of the afternoon, including a group one: DSC_5460col

A morning at the beach

We had a lovely morning - we met the Binnington Clan at South Bay Beach for a spot of brunch and paddling in the water.  It's rather warm out there, and Bunky got nice and sweaty - and I believe he manage to sneak it a few rolls in the sand.  A great morning had by all, and I managed to get a few photos of our fun in the sun. Firstly, one of Bunky looking all pensive during breakfast:

Just a few random photos of Bunky hanging out

He was in a great mood this morning, and happily sat up and played with various toys while our routine went on around him.  I suppose I'd be pretty content if someone stewed up some fresh apples and pears with vanilla pods, and then spoonfed them to me... He's got a busy weekend ahead of him - we're catching up with the Binningtons tomorrow for brunch / lunch (weather permitting it'll be at the beach), and then he's got lunch in Wan Chai with some of his baby group buddies.  Tomorrow we are dining at Chez Saunders / Williams, but the Bunkmeister is being left behind for that one.

I'm just experimenting with picture sizes on the larger website layout - please let me know via the contact page if the photos are wonky / too large / too small on your monitor.

Cheap props, feline supervision

Have changed the format of the website so that I can upload slightly larger photos of the little monkey.  Still a few tweaks to do, but for the most part everything should be working fine.  The contact page has disappeared, but I'll reupload it soon. A few photos from this morning - Rachel finished a roll of wrapping paper, and Bunky decided to hone his Jedi skills with the empty roll.  Ben looked on unimpressed.

Food on face v2.0, solicitors, H1N1 prevention

Another photo from the weekend - Bunky seems to quite enjoy smearing food on his face and saving it for later. I know it's similar to the one a few days ago, but I loved his little brow furrow in this one: DSC_5159

And this photo was definitely worth sharing - Jane and John found it in Leeds over the weekend:

And finally, some peculiar advice from a Malaysian government-approved healthcare provider (I'm loathe to call him a "doctor") that has been doing the rounds:

Avoiding pollution

It was a crackingly hazy day here in HK today - but we needed to get out of the house, or we'd suffer from cabin fever.  Solution was to head to one of the malls - which we kind of needed to do (grandparents arriving tomorrow, birthday presents to buy, coffee to drink, lunch to eat...) We had a really nice lunch at Isola and I managed to fire off a few photos while we were there:

If you're wondering what Bunky was eyeing up (and subsequently tried to grab), it's pizza...
