pingJuly 12 Laugh when you canJust read this from a friend's profile:
laugh when you can, apologize when you should, and let go what u cannot change, kiss slowly, play hard, forgive quickly, take chances, give everything and have no regrets. life is too short to be anything but happy. June 21 Winners on Father's DayIt's Father's Day today, nothing to do with me though. I joined Sue and her family to go to the Stadium where people do the dog's racing. There is only one father in this group, Sue's son Robert.
Yes I bet, but I knew nothig about it.I didn't even bother to read the information in the leaflets .What l did was just to stick to 2 numbers, hoping I could be good luck sometimes. Unfortunately I lost all the 9 races (we were a bit late, started from the 3rd race). Alex said I might win once this way if I keep going there everyday for 5 years!
The last bet I decided to change the number, and I won ( 4 pounds) ! Robert is the biggest winner who gets 15, Alex comes 2nd, 14, and Sue 5. March 22 Busy busy busy.......What a busy holiday! Busy meeting friends,spending most of the time at table full of food... don't get time to type just look at some pictures :) February 22 God Listens!I went to Rye yesterday and prayed in St Marry's Church, a church with over 900 years history. I prayed to God aking him to let me win the lottery.
God listens! This morning I checked my account and discovered that I had won £5.50!
Unfortunately I forgot to tell him how much I wanted to win.
February 18 How many times will you be lucky like this?Last week I left my suitcase on a bus and yesterday I got it back from the bus company. It’s the second time I left the same suitcase on the bus and got it back from the same place in the last two months. And it’s the third time I left things on the bus and got them back in the UK. Will I be lucky again if it happens again? February 02 Heavy SnowBus services were cancelled, as were dozens of trains, and some airport runways were temporarily closed.
Much of the UK was blanketed in snow. It is said that the last time the UK saw such widespread snowfall was in February 1991.
Around 400 schools in Essex were closed.
Three appointments of mine were cancelled.
So no need to go to work or school for most people. Instead they could have fun in the snow. January 06 Optimist
I cut my foot the other day and lots of things arranged have to be cancelled,including going to the spa. Many people asked how it happened.In order to tell the story I pick up some words I seldom used before, such as bleed like a pig,vein,tile,stitches,heal up. So they say I am an optimist. Yes I am. As the lyrics goes:Always look on the bright side of your life.
January 01 新相机今天新买了部相机，高科技真是不得了了，摆弄了半天才弄清该怎么用。用惯了6年前的那部，很简单，就是数码照相机的基本功能，当年还卖得贵的不得了。现在，£50 左右就有得用了。今天这部，可以说是一见钟情，Sony, DSC-T77，薄薄的一点，设计得很精致，新年打完折才£169.99。可能很畅销吧，我去的那家店只剩下样品了，银色黑色粉红各一款。店员说，是买陈设品呢还是到别处看看？ 我说，还是买全新的好点。我用了一个词，意思很丰富的：Virgin.(I’d like a virgin one.) 店员很年轻，笑了，说：You have mastered the English language.
小伙子很热情，给我电话联系了另一处。等我赶到那，很顺利的就买到了我要的(包装盒上已经贴上我的名字),还是唯一的一部Virgin。
试用了一下还真好，很多功能以前都没见过的，最满意的是不用那些电池了(所以才薄薄的)，有一个功能让我笑得不行，Smill Shutter，就是照相机对着人，人张嘴笑了相机会自动抓拍，人不笑，相机就不动。哎呀太好玩了。 December 31 Bye bye 2008Only 90 minutes left for 2008.
Time flies.
Bye bye 2008!
Too lazy to write more.Will add something up later.
Happy New Year! December 26 Pieces of Xmas
It was a big dinner, the biggest of the year as it always.With 10 people sitting in two tables, the dining-room appeared a bit too crowded.
I didn’t get drunk, not the way I had hoped and promised —stand on the table,take off the clothes one by one, singing and dancing naked.In Sue’s words, that would be the most entertaining. She must be dissapointed not to see me being misbehaved.
At table the joke from the cracker I pulled is : Q: Why do cows lie down in the rain? A; To keep each udder dry. All people laughed when I read it out but I didn’t because I did not know what the point was. I took udder for under.That’s why.
Boxing day today, it’s full of sunshine now.Not knowing what to do next, I may just be relaxed.
December 25 Merry XmasI’m happy because the dogs are happy playing with their Xmas gifts and I do not get the flu , have been busy wrapping and sending out the presents and unwrapping those I receive, feel so good when reading all those best wishes am now waiting for the biggest dinner of the year…
I’m unhappy because my laptop still deaf and dumb, the digital camera given by Shan 6 years ago stopped working today and now in the bin, Chris is moving to another city after the last champagne, there is no signs of snow…
December 20 MourningSometimes it happens, You never hear any news from someone you know But when you do get news about him some day, It is that—he passed away. That’s the sad news I got today. Our monitor Mr Shi at the Teachers’ College died of cancer. Mr Shi, You are still so young with a very good career But you leave for ever and leave your beloved behind.
I was wondering, If I said yes to that indirect request years ago, Will it make your life longer? You have been working so hard, Mr Shi, you could have a good rest now. December 06 Touch Wood!Cough,sneeze,running nose,headacke, sore throat,running tears….,5 people out of 6 in this house have been suffering since about two weeks ago.I’m the only one still seem ok at the moment. Touch wood.
Proudely I announce I’m the smallest but the strongest, If I can still get away from it this season it’s almost a miracle. The reason I don’t get it I joke is the fact that Chinese have no free Medicine Servise as the English do.We have to keep heathy and strong enough to work hard to survive.
November 29 The First Xmas GiftMy first Xmas gift was received from Simon (the one in London not the Simon in China) yesterday.It’s been two years that he’s the first one to remind me with gift that Christmas is here soon.Last year I said I might not meet him again before Chrismas and I got no chance to give him some stuff in return.But he said he was happy to give and didn’t expect anything in return.This year he said the same and I did the same—a big hug for him.
He’s good at design and making things so it doesn’t surprise me when I get a very beautigully wraped box.I don’t know what it is inside but I can feel the warmth and friendship it sends forth.
You may not see this but I wish you could hear me:Merry Christmas Simon.
November 23 I'm attactive, aren't I?Andy is a very nice guy,gentle, generous and very careing, living alone and lonely in a big house a stones throw away from the sea.
One day he asked me: "Honestly,I'm attactive, aren't I?"
Looking at his big belly and extra fat which makes him look so much older than those with his age 49,I shook my head and said: "Honestly,no.But if you lose 10 stones and go to the gym at least three times a week for at least 3 months ,after that maybe yes."
Guess what happened?--I didn't get the contract signed.
Then I realise what a mistake I've made.
And I start to doubt how serious when people say to me: You are attractive!
November 01 有工作真好在我认识的人里，Robert是这场金融风暴的直接受害者--lose job.
但他会马上就能领到每星期好几十英镑的失业救济金，直到他找到新工作。
他开玩笑跟我说，要不要帮手，还感叹说，有工作真好！
October 18 It's Your Birthday,Simon Tomorrow is your special day,
so celebrate in your favorite way As time goes bye, The years begin to fly. But, you're only as old as you feel, even when gray hair begins to yield. Life is full of ups and downs.And you hurt your jaw the other day.Luckily you can still chew.
So, always wear a smile, instead of a frown. Many wishes for days to come and may your birthday be a very extra special one. HAPPY BIRTHDAY September 27 Will you pay £800 for a hand bag?Instead of "Nice weather, isn't it ?" ,Mark complemented this afternoon in London when we had coffee together: "A nice bag!"
Since I carried the Louis Vuitton. Paris last month,over 20 people have said that to me, some of whom are directly: "Is it real?"
An authentic Louis Vuitton. Paris.made in France of this kind costs up to £800.While most of the designer bags are extremely expensive, the most expensive Louis Vuitton bag that has been released in early 2007 was the “Louis Vuitton Tribute Patchwork bag.” At a jaw-dropping £23,484,it is one of the world's most costly handbag.No wonder people keep asking.
However, it is the most counterfeited brand in the world - just one per cent of all products claiming to be made by Louis Vuitton are genuine.
I paid less than £80 on it. You can tell now. No winnersAll people in this house bought something last night but none of us won anything out of that 100 million EuroMillions lottery .No suprise.
Anyway I have a happy birthday today.
Don't ask how old I'm.Can't remember that :-)
September 26 Happy Birthday tomorrow!I'll wait tonight to see the result of this week's EuroMillions lottery .I bought 2 tickets.

答秀玲：
在英国购置手机很简单，也便宜。他这种情况可以到手机店去，买个pay as you go 的，通常卡是免费的，你交多少钱就用多少，不过这种通话费较贵（英国手机都是单向收费，接听免费），但短信便宜，有很多种选择的，如果你说明你要联系中国，店员可能推荐一种拨打中国长途的，每分钟收费好像4-6英分（约人民币6-8毛多）。可以用中国带过来的手机，但有的要解锁才能用（大约花12-20英镑不等，如果这样还不如买店里便宜的手机，也就20 英镑左右）。
如果他往家里打电话，很多小店里（尤其是印巴人开的小店）都有电话卡卖，便宜的有5 英镑的，用座机可以打好几百分钟，可以在公共电话亭里用，到处都是，千万不要在pay as you go 的手机上用。如果跟住家说明，用住家的座机电话，按卡上的说明拨打就更便宜了。如果在座机上拨这个号码，国内电话也就1 英分/分钟：0845244 9449 （加上国内区号，去掉0 ）， 但房东可能不乐意。 但愿对你有用。
