Day 75 – Wednesday 22nd April – Operation lace-up
Comments Published April 25th, 2009 in UncategorizedOkay, so my DCs which I loved so much back in England when they were new and shiny have taken a bit of a beating in China. As a reminder, they used to be new and shiny:
But a few months in China has reduced them to:

So, I decided to freshen them up a bit:
^ I love it! ^_^
Originally I wanted to buy the blue and pink laces, but Beryl wouldn’t let me 🙁 She said they’d look stupid (some will argue she was/is right) so I had to go back to the shop without her the next day and buy a pair of blue and a pair of pink. 😀
^ Bad ass.
^ The view from up here. 🙂 I wish they were a bit thicker, but… they still work!
Of course…buying a pair of blue and a pair of pink meant that I had a spare of each, and of course, when Beryl actually saw the laces, she thought they looked great. So, I hooked her up:
^ Tiny feet 😛
^ Ta-dar! Couples in China wear matching t-shirts and stuff, so we get some strange looks! We try to synchronise our steps so we both step blue-pink-blue-pink. 🙂
^ Swish!
^ Pink pink blue blue 😀
^ BLUE! 🙂
Well, yet another blog post coming tomorrow about the sports day, but I’ll leave you with one pic:
Full post hopefully coming tomorrow!
