Tim http://www.beckenham.id.au Linda and myself just racked up 1 year in Shanghai. Time sure has flown by. We have both been talking about what our year was like here in SH, comparing and contrasting our personal & professional lives, and our ambitions for the year ahead.

We've met some great friends in our time here, as well as experiencing a totally different lifestyle to what we had back in Brisbane. Professionally, it has been a lot of hard work - and I've been spending a lot of down-time trying to examine where I want to go with that aspect of my life.

As its also 1 year - we'll soon be leaving ChunderLoo (Changde Lu) for slightly greener pastures near the Jiangsu Lu Metro Station where a much bigger apartment awaits. An apartment perfect for the hoardes of visitors currently knocking on our door. We have spent a lot of time in the past 2 weeks looking for a good apartment, and we're quite happy with what we've chosen. We'll be signing the contract this Friday night.

I am just about to finish my first Chinese language course - yes, terrible application to learn the language of the country I live in. I've been happy with my progress so another course is definitely on the cards in the coming months.

In sporting news, RD is 0-3 in the SIBL (a very good and tight game that went down to the wire), and Huangpu Stew notched up our first win (1-1) over Team Blue in the Monday Night Disc League (13-7).

And that's about it for now.
