Looking Back – August 2022

A close friend of mine recently asked if I’m ok or not. Didn’t feel surprise as I was so out of mood to write.
Actually, I was just too lazy and couldn’t believe why such a monthly look back post was published by end of the month!
14 – 19 August | As part of the boy’s summary holiday, had a short stay in Edinburgh, Scotland.![]() Visited nearby areas, Glasgow & joined a local tour to the Highlands as well as Loch Ness. ![]() ![]() Natural scenery of the highland areas were absolutely stunning. Edinburgh is extremely busy city but to be honest, the living standard is really on par with London! |
13 August | Had a weekend lunch at the local pub “The Woodman” at Ashtead. Cozy atmosphere and easy food.![]() ![]() |
6 August | Joined the “Sussex Balloon & Action Extravaganza” at South of England Showground, Haywards Heath. Shared the joy with locals out in the sun.![]() ![]() ![]() |
3 August | Visited another English Heritage spot “1066 Battle of Hastings, Abbey and Batterfield” and enjoyed a short drama played by two wonderful guys.![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Drove to Hastings Beach afterwards and had our very first bite of British Fish & Chips. Wow, hard to believe in-expensive and tasty. ![]() ![]() |
1 August | Short ride with my boy to Tolworth.![]() |

I joined another walking club early this year and made some new friends. Last month, I tried to call one co-worker I never met to come out to eat. It turned out we have a lot of in common and we’ve become good friends. Last night, a co-worker I met 3 years ago called me the first time since she retired. We only sat on the same floor for a week. We chatted a little bit and decided to go out to eat some time in October. Life is full of gaps. I need to fill some of them up.
Great stuff and castles are fun to visit.
Did you live outside of Asia before you moved permanently to the UK? Clearly scenery/life pace would be quite different than HK. Have you been to North America?
I have never lived in other Asian countries other than HK and to be honest, I have not been to North America as well. Maybe this should be my target. 😄
What!!! You been in UK for over a year and just had fish n chips?!!! Tbh, you haven’t missed much!! Good to see you’re getting out and about
