Chinese New Year
We once again found ourselves on Sibu Island, Malaysia at the weekend. It's a lovely spot, the huts are basic (no air-conditioning, no hot water), the food is plentiful and wholesome and the atmosphere very relaxed.
Paul and I continued our bridge learning curve with George and Alex, and we enjoyed good wine and interesting conversation over the four days. The sun shone and there was a lovely breeze all weekend. You really can't beat the soporific sound of waves lapping on shore to put you to sleep.
We took a walk to the fascinating small village in the south of the island. It was neat, well-organised and had neatly-trimmed grass areas. The cattle and chickens roamed free, while the cats were locked in cages. It was odd to see hundreds of coconuts lying at the foot of palm trees drying in the sun.
Food
I'm still doing Atkins, I still feel good and I'm enjoying the food choices. However I still occassionally fancy a coffee - glad someone invented decaf with Sweet'n'low! It was weigh-in day today, no weight loss, just size shrinkage. I'm happy with that.
Work
Now I am back at work, with very little to do, planning my trip to the UK. We're off to Kuala Lumpar on Friday evening, so it's just a three day week - brilliant.
Photos
Paul and I both entered photos into the dpchallenge website. It will be interesting to see what the votes say. I know we won't be the worst ones in there judging on previous challenges.
