As I type, I'm in China - just landed in Beijing a few hours ago and am catching up on 8 hours worth of posts and emails here in Tianjin. Was it just me or was there a spam blizzard this weekend too? Loads of the stuff in all of my email accounts.
Normally the weather here can be bitterly cold if the winds come off the Mongolian Desert (along with lots of loess covering everything in a fine layer and turning any bright colours to a muted shade of grey brown). I've had the exposed skin on the back of my hands dessicate in about 8 mins in past visits when its been below freezing here. Man, the windchill was something else!
Ah well, hopefully the weather will hold out this week and then its back to the UK and work next Monday.
