Raoul's Cafe : Egg benedict

這是我第二次吃 egg benedict, 第一次是在曼谷的 Four Seasons 吃早餐時看到鄰桌的外國人吃而拚命地在 egg menu 中找出他們在吃什麼 (笑)

之後也沒有在香港吃過, 聽說在中環的 The Flying Pan 有~

Hong Kong Tea Bar

商業街上有一間茶餐廳 feel 的食店 "Hong Kong Tea Bar"



這碟蝦仁炒麵 £4.3 送飲品, ok 好食的



已經加了奶的奶茶, 味道好像麥記的熱奶茶未加奶  :p

Late dinner

星期四的課由五時到八時, 回到宿舍吃今天的 late dinner
無乜味的薯仔, 無乜味的粟米, 硬過石頭的麵包和四粒肉丸
英國果然和傳說中一樣每餐都有薯仔
最經典的一餐三款配菜三款都是薯仔!
分別是炸薯條、水煮薯仔和炆薯仔...

第一個星期的 reading

第一個星期就要 reading
這本和 Harry Potter 7 一樣厚的書
我這兩晚 read 了 124 頁 (間尺那位置) : )

第一天正式上課

今天第一天正式上課, 三時到課室, 等了15分鐘還不見 Lecturer 出現...

班上的 "Lecturer 同學" (有兩個 Portsmouth U 的 Lecturer 讀這個 Master course) 打電話給那位失蹤了的 Lecturer, 原來他的 timetable 上沒有這一堂課!
後來發現, 不是他的 timetable 出錯, 而是我們成班同學的 timetable 印錯了!
Well, what a good start!

J 小姐說在美國常常會發生 Lecturer 在上課時間失蹤這種事
我在香港未遇過啊! :o

The bright side is, I can have my early dinner today~

在 Southsea Common 看星星

Laundry Room 今天終於修理好可以用了
「新張期內」這個 weekend 免費!
於是我的下午就花在洗衣服上了
那個乾衣機平日 10p for 10mins
但我乾了 40mins 衣服還沒全乾...

晚上去了一間泰國餐廳吃飯
只是9點多但店內已經沒有客人了...
朋友們說我那一碟很味道很中國菜, 即是好味啦咁~


這碟炒粉 £5.50


之後去了 hall 外面的草地看星星
因為是在沙灘旁邊又只有8度所以很大風很凍!
我看到兩顆流星呢~
不過我忘記了許願 >_<

開銀行戶口

今天的目標是 doctor registration 和開銀行戶口
下午到學校的 international office 拿 bank letter
因為 V 小姐說 natwest 好, 所以我就打算到 natwest 開戶
到了 natwest, 他們說 international student 開 account 要每個月收 charge!
(和 HSBC 一樣!)
痴線緊係唔開啦咁!
走到旁邊的 Lloyds 問, 他們說開戶不收 charge, 但要我下午三時再回來
於是又回到學校請他們再出另一封 bank letter
還未到三時所以到處走了一下
三時半到了 Lloyds, 他們又說今天不能給你開戶了, 請你星期一上午九時再來吧...
所以我還沒有銀行戶口...


今日至抵精明眼

螢光筆4支 99p @ Sainsbury's

金寶甜品

和舊同事到九龍城吃完晚飯, 到了這間金寶吃甜品
雖然是星期六晚上, 但店多的客人也不多
我點的是這個朱古力蛋糕芒果雪糕芭菲 ($42)
聽說雪糕是日本製造的, 但我吃不出有什麼特別...
整體來說也不錯吃, 有機會的話也會再幫襯

Coke Zero Free Drink

放工行過 ploy 橋, 無啦啦有 free drink, 正!

8 Hongkongers get killed on hijacked tourist bus in Manila

I sat at home and watched the whole incident on TV from 7pm till the end of it. What I saw was the incompetence of the Philippine police officers. What I saw was the countless chances they have missed for saving the hostages, like the police should have taken the gunman down when the he was at the front door for food and had his gun pointed down. But instead, the police officers was doing all the stupid moves like using a rope to get the front door open, which failed miserably btw, throwing a light stick inside the bus, or breaking the headlights of the bus, seriously! I am not a professional, but isn’t that we usually agree with whatever the hostage taker requested when there are lives in his hand? What the hostage taker asked for this time were just reviewing his case again and hopping to get his job back, it's not bombing the whole police station off now or bringing the people related to my case here and I can kill them one by one for revenge now. Why couldn’t the officers or the negotiator just agreed with what he wanted and end the incident right then? And let’s not talk about how the police officers took the hostage taker’s brother away by force and arrested him in front of the taker! I started to wonder that is there any things they won’t do for provoking the gunman? Finally I just want to say that I am very disappointed with the Philippine police force! My sincerest condolence to all the victims, their families and friends in this tragedy.
