So much to say!

It feels like an absolute age since I have sent an update!  I musn't, however, make the mistake of boring the pants off you with too much information.  I will try and do it in nuggets, and probably in reverse chronological order!

First nugget...What is on the forefront of my mind at the moment is finding a 'helper'.  This is Hong Kong's answer to childcare...and making best use of cheap labour from Indonesia, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Thailand or Nepal.  They generally 'help' you (or simply do) the cooking, cleaning, getting the kids ready, caring for pets, washing cars, gardening or shopping!  Sounds great! The downside is that our already cramped living space 750 ft sq (probably the ground floor of an average semi in the UK) will also have to house the helper.  Well, we'll just have to see whether the benefits outweigh the downside!

Well in true style, Anthony has interrupted my micro-blog by waking up. I'll leave it at that until another day! x

    Good luck on your quest, and you must share pics of this 750 square feet living space of yours, I'd love to see it.
