My personal review for the April 2024

Looking Back – April 2024

Personal look back for the past month

Lunar New Year Holidays 2024 農曆新年

Time flies and we are already three months into 2024! If you’ve been following my monthly look back, you probably know that I’ve been busy migrating my blog to a new server. Better than what I originally projected, the transfer of all contents had already been done last week. What remains is to monitor the new system and make any necessary tweaks; my life is finally back to normal.

話咁快 2024 又過了差不多四份一,大家如果有留意我最近的每月回顧,大概都知道我忙於轉移我的網誌去新的 server。上星期尾剛完成全部 contents 的搬動,剩下來是新系統的監察及作適當的微調,空間多一點,生活又可暫時回常。

Slow Cooked Beef Ragù Pasta 慢煮肉醬意大利粉

For the past few years living in the UK, the food we enjoyed most was Italian pasta. If you remembered my previous post about testing out my son’s new bicycle, that small Italian cafe, Little Italy in Sunbury, is our favourite and we visited there almost every one or two weeks.

在英國生活的日子,食得最多就是意大利 pasta。 如果有留意之前和兒子試他的新單車的一篇,那間位於 Sunbury 的意大利小店 Little Italy 就是我家的至愛,差不多一、兩個星期都會去一次。

Here comes Christmas Again 又到聖誕

2023 went much more quickly than I had thought and Christmas had already arrived. This was the third Christmas since arriving in the UK and festive vibes were around Kingston since late November. 

2023 年過得比我想像快很多,無驚無險又到了聖誕。 這是到英國後的第三個聖誕,早在十一月尾節日氣氛已濃𦋐整個 Kingston。

Summer Holiday 2023 – Day 1 暑期活動 2023 出發篇

To save some money on our trip, we chose the Avanti West Coast train departing from London Euston just before noon. The two-and-a-half-hour journey provided me a perfect opportunity to have a light lunch, read a book and catch a short nap.

因為要省錢,到 Lake District 的交通,我們選擇了中午前從 London Euston 開出的 Avanti West Coast 火車,兩個半小時的車程正好可以吃個輕便午餐,看看書再小睡片刻。

Summer Holiday 2023 暑期活動 2023

Time flies and half of the summer holidays has gone. As usual, my wife will work out the summer activities for our son. Last year, we spent a week in Scotland, and this year we will stay a bit closer, in The Lake District.

不經意地暑假又過了大半,一如往年,太太會為兒子安排暑期活動。 上年去了蘇格蘭,今年就稍為近一點,目的地是英國湖區,The Lake District。

Home Automation 家居自動化

It has been almost a year since I moved into my current apartment. Apart from daily household chores, the introduction of home automation has taken up most of my time. And the story begins with the pendant lights in the living and dining rooms.

搬入現時居所差不多一年了,這段日子除了日常家居打理外,花得最多時間可算是引入家居自動化這個概念。 而故事就是從客、飯廳的吊燈開始。
