Alex!

I can see Alex has got a fine future ahead of him doing v-signs over the heads of news reporters doing live reports etc...

A summary of September...

I went to a French restaurant in Surae Maul with the wife and kids. I had lamb chops and my wife had sea bass. The kids had whatever crumbs we dropped down to them. It was good but I can't decide whether I should mark the restaurant down for giving me my lamp chops cooked medium when I asked for well done, even though they clearly tasted better that way.









My salsa-dancing friend had a birthday and I made her a cake (although it rather looks like one of the kids did it - lack of proper tools).
Another friend had a birthday and I still owe her a cake....

My parents came to visit; (lost the mobile phone we gave them within ten minutes of being given it) and managed to amuse themselves for the month.
I drank a lot of coffee to get me through the late nights at work (One day I started at 9:00am and finished at 6:00 pm the following day.)
We stayed in Seoul for Chuseok and therefore avoided most of the traffic.
Instead, we walked the length of Chongyechon while zig-zagging across each set of stepping-stones.
We went up to Samchonggak.
And we went to Kyungheegung.

We tried to go up Seoul Tower (or whatever it's called nowadays)but there were just too many people.
We saw some Koreans playing traditional games,
and played some traditional english games ourselves...
Finally we kept seeing these vivid and extremely large spiders everywhere we went...

A busy month...

if anyone is still checking here after a month of me not posting I admire your persistance. Yes I know I've been crap at updating but I spent three weeks working til midnight every day including weekends so I'm sure you can understand. I've also got my parents here at the moment which leaves me with less time to do anything.

Anyhow, here are some pictures taken during the past month (as usual click for the lightbox effect and captions):
