 Jiajia bought some multi-use cleaning fluid recently. But the examples of what it could clean got progressively weirder!
JD and I played a couple of games of Risk the other day. But HOW ON EARTH does my computer know that?? The online adverts for Risk starting just 24 hours after we first played! Scary!  JD was greeted by a couple of random rabbits on his return to school yesterday! What with COVID and Winter holiday, it's his first day in class for about five months.  Apparently the Government have told his Primary School that they have too many students for Health and Safety reasons, so the current 2500 students will be gradually reduced to 1000 or so over coming years!   JD's holiday homework and review papers have been ramping up this week as he's back to school next week and looking at taking his end-of-term exams, which were postponed from last semester due to the COVID school closure.
He goes to a private homework class most days and Jiajia gives him extra help where she can. JD only has about a year of Chinese education to go, so it's important to take this opportunity to make his reading and writing as solid as possible before our move to the UK next year. I spotted this Passat the other day. Italian version, perhaps?   Yesterday, we met up with friends to show them where we do our fossil hunting. After a nice lunch together at a countryside home/restaurant we headed up the hill with our hammers and brushes! We all managed to find some fossils, but the newcomers got the best of the bunch...
 JD saw a crowd looking up in the sky the other day, and followed their line of sight to spot these rather amazing clouds! Apparently they are called "Mother-of-pearl" formations and are a very rare sight.
