Ooops. Someone came gave me a bottle of Vodka a few days ago so the not drinking went out the window for a while. I will be starting my 6 month purge again soon.

I am eating a small salad and drinking Pinot Grigio white wine. It's all I can handle after a convivial day spent with some Chinese friends in which the women cooked the usual colossal amount of dishes that are the centrepiece of such gatherings and that are far too much for my minuscule appetite.
hummus and pita bread, yum
The Chinese knowledge of beer is rather poor I'm afraid and that on offer was Carlsberg. They don't appear to know about exotic brews like Golden Hen or Hobgoblin. One girl's father asked if I would like some rice wine but I had some in a Korean restaurant not long ago and once bitten twice shy. Anyhow, if the weather holds out, I'm supposed to be taking a couple of the women on a country walk next week and I will be able to explain to them the delights of a pint of Doombar at a nice little hostelry I know of.
