Worm Holes

Well, its been very quiet here lately, while Rose has been recovering from her operation we haven't really done to much, when we have ventured out its only been for about an hour then we have to come home again. We will be off to Chengdu again later in order for her to have her follow up checks, so we will be there for about a week or so as far as I know (things change unbeknown to me anyway).
My little pal Happy  after having his shower to get him clean and not so dog smelly, a procedure he is not very keen on although like the good dog he is he stands there resigned to the fact that he cant stop it, now when he goes out into our little garden on the 4th floor likes to find dead worms to roll around in. Now these do impart a quite revolting odour so I have to keep a sharp eye on him and persuade him away from the offending worms, which now that its the rainy season, tend to come to the grass surface a lot more and then get fried in the sun when it comes out again.

We spend a little while today at 'another new' shopping Mall that has just opened this one is called KK100, and as they way it goes here is grander than the others, its also under the newest and tallest of our buildings that is just about finished being built.

The town is in the process of being spruced up at the moment, buildings painted, roads redone, the new underground is getting near to completion and all because of a huge sporting event the Universiade that is taking place later in the year.

When we were out today we were passed by a huge convoy of army trucks, cars and vans etc the lorries contained squads of soldiers armed to the teeth, so something is going on, unless they are just here to practice for the above mentioned event. But was an unusual sight to see around here.
