I managed to escape back to Taiwan the day after Trish came out of hospital. If you are reading her diary you will understand why.

It’s turning cold here in Taiwan too – seems everywhere I go is like that now (must be something to do with the seasons). As you can imagine, I am finding the mere 28 degrees C here difficult to take.

I came here this time for 2 weeks as we are trying to get some engineering tests done on the actual main line tracks. True to fashion, after we arrived the customer announced that there was some testing that he would like done too. That’s right, no notice, told us after we arrived. Ah well, such is the spice of the working life these days. Wouldn’t it be boring without these (damned) customers.

Anyway, it’s 9pm on a Thursday evening and we have to go off now to run some tests on the garveyard shift (after a long day of prep).

Talk to y’all soon.
