Gung Hey Fat Choy


to our oriental friends here and oversees.

OK.. I'm a bit late..


Anyhoo... Funny the things you remember eh?
We had a big, square biscuit tin when I was a nipper. It was pink with 2 dragons chasing the fiery pearl. I was fascinated with it.



 Long before I studied Wing Chun and the spicy delights of the Chan family takeaway menu... the only thing I knew of China at age 8 was the Water Margin on TV (which was really Japanese) and this biscuit tin with it's amazing design of scaly dragons and intricate patterns.
I remember thinking one day as I fished around for the last Jammy Dodger..
'I wonder if China smells of biscuits?''
