Heat

well. hello every one.
i know its been almost a week since my last publish so i though i would update..

it is very very very very hot here now. i am sweeting over doing almost nothing. i think the polution seems to trap heat in, and the mountains on the horizon, seem to stop any drafts from blowing into the city..

i know have 4 classes a day to teach.

1 small littelens
2 littelens
3 pre kindergarten
4 kindergarten

the pre school room has been voncerted into small (1-2 year olds).
great fun :-) my first class with them is today, however tracy (a very good teacher) will be there to help me.


i was talking to another westoner over here and we got into talking about savings of money, he told me that if i wasnt to sure what i wanted to day in the next 5 years, any money i save i use to buy gold bullion from the an online site (like ebay).
if i decide to go back to england and the gmp has got stronger then i will be better off to buy gold now and sell it later. if i decide to stay in china and the value of the rmb has dropped then i will be looking at a little profit when i come to sell the gold. Charly has a a few 10gram bars at his house. and the current high value of the rmb mean the gold is relativly cheap compared to when he fist moved here. not such a bad idea....

any how i will try and get a picture up in the next few days, but the who city has a cotten like substance floating all over it. apparently it is like cotten (a school teacher told me) :-) hummm very informative. :-)

this last week nothing much has happend. liyang cant find work so i planted a seed in her head to be self employed, exporting to england or making things or providing some type of service. she seems to be happy searching chinese web site for things, then i get the list and search ebay uk and write down the price, looks like there isnt much to sell that cheaper at the moment (again rmb just to high agains the pound).
im sure she will find somthing good at some point, but in the mean time she is very buisy researching... she has found motorbikes that look good and are 350GBP brand new, not sure about export prices and taxs to be paid, but i have agreed to look into it at some point if there is nothing else to export.

good girl. see seems a lot happyer now, has a reason to get up, make food, buy more food, speand a few hour infront of the computer, go home and write details about products, then its my turn to spend 30mins looking up and writing prices. all very good.

speak soon
mark
