The Axeman Cometh !!

Yesterday the weather was lousy so we went to Bluewater to spend Simons birthday money but ended up buying him nothing and Thomas a toy electric guitar !!


We got home and soon he was giving it large with Dad and Mum accompanying him on the drums and Ukelele !!
His heavy metal thrash version of Twinkle twinkle little star was epic. A real Moshing session ensued !
We were just able to stop him chucking the TV through the window after he'd finished his set !!
Rock on Thomas !................respect

Shanghai

Well Simon was off on his travels again in early November to Shanghai and Shenzen on another frantic business trip.
He went everywhere around S.China , a real trains planes and automobiles trip and covered many miles and got back on 7th November very tired.
He found Shanghai a really brilliant place though & recommends it for a visit.


Here are some photo's of the Bund area, including the Nanjing road (their Oxford St) the old colonial trading houses and the skyline across the river of the great skyscrapers.
