Then he just completed the cello bow. That was using snakewood. It's got very nice grain/ swirl patterns (again, layman's terms). Anyway the wood is beautiful and when I feel the bow, it just looks so good I wish I could play the cello and coax some beautiful strains out of the cello right away. The cello is so melodious and sings like the human voice, I really like it (if there's a good player playing it, like Yoyo Ma?) :-)
He sold it off too, that's why must take picture first. :-)
Although it doesn't pay as well as my tuition or his violin teaching in the past, it is a good start for now. (Of course can't even compare to our full time jobs).
We're going out for dinner tonight and treating another family. Chose a CHinese restaurant (haha, it is the best of what's available here). They are one of the church deacons, his wife and 2 teenage sons. They helped us a lot and we haven't got down to having a meal with them yet. The TV my sons watch VCD on was given by them, as well as a whole lot of other stuff.
By the way, dory, do pple in UK call lunch "dinner" too?
People here always invite me for "dinner" and I keep thinking it is the evening meal. But it's at noon. So they've breakfast, dinner and supper. No lunch. Whereas for us, it is breakfast, lunch, dinner then supper (11pm meal) right? haha
Then there are snacktimes and teatimes for me too. Like at 10am, 3pm, all those in between times. I don't have a bathroom scale at home but I do think I am putting on weight! :-)
