Apparently there was a protest against Carrefour on Sunday and there will be one on May 1.
My wife wants her mother to take Tony to countryside for a month. I don't like the idea but the wife does need rest because of her recent sickness and her having to look after the decoration of the new apartment. I would rather Tony came back after a week (or less). I know Jenny needs some rest but I can't sleep thinking about Tony living in the filthy conditions of Beixing. But if I dare mention that the in-laws' home is filthy, they will get insulted. So, I can't win. And when Jenny gets insulted, rationality goes out the window. Tony will end up staying out in the countryside for a month and my objections are ignored. Sound like an analogy to some current events?
I received an email from my parents telling me that my sister and her common-law partner are breaking up. This essentially amounts to a divorce even if they never really got married in the first place. There are children involved so lord knows what will happen. I have seen it happen so often to other people but, to use the cliche, this news really hits home.
