Hints of being away too long

In 2006, the family has been travelling quite a bit with Adrian going for training, myself in this job (and Eve following me), dad and mum going to Australia, the kids' first time on a plane, Terence and Cherry going for their hols and also on their jobs. 2007 is starting out to be another travelling year, with Astee going overseas, Terence in his new job.

Eve and I will however, try to be in Singapore more this year, subject to my work assignments, so to make sure we remember our travels, here's a list of things to remind us when we've been away too long.

"You know you've been away too long" when
1. You have a haircut four times overseas
2. When we start ordering General Tso's pork ribs to get closer to home-Chinese food
3. A family reunion of one hour in London can mean so much
4. You have four types of currencies in your luggage
5. Blogs become the primary means of communication with your family and friends
6. You stay long enough in a hotel to order things online and have it delivered
7. You stay long enough in a hotel to know most staff and they know you by name
8. You take a membership at the local YMCA just so you can go swimming
9. Your swimming trunks is getting loose and you're waiting to go to Queensway
10. You have a set of cutlery, can opener etc to use in the hotel
