Change in the weather

It's rained a little today, but still hot. The smog's a bit lower than it was, but people are still fishing in the river that runs at the back of where I'm living. You should look on Google Earth to see it -- it's a bit like a moat around the University.

So my plans to explore a bit today have changed and I'm working on the book instead. It's nearly 11:30 now, so time to go to lunch (eating times are early here) and make people laugh with my chopstick skills again!

Skype works here so I can contact home fairly easily when the networks OK and one of my colleagues from Birmingham is arriving today (I think).

Tonight's the formal welcome dinner for me -- I'll let you know how I get on.
