They'd come up from Somerset to visit their gran 
The eldest has just got back from a teaching job in China, and his photos and videos were quite amazing 
He'd also bought a tiny piece of the Great Wall back with him, for his gran, so I've touched the Great Wall of China, even if I'm never likely to visit it 
The best photos of all were of the Terracotta Army - absolutely amazing, they are all different, each 'man' has different features, just like a real army......Rather gruesomely they buried real horses with the Emperor as well as the terracotta ones, and also his wives and concubines, still alive, most likely
He had some really cute footage of the children he was teaching, saying hello to the camera
Sam is blue eyed and blond and they had never seen a foreigner before so they were fascinated by him, especially his eyes - in fact everywhere he travelled in China they wanted his photo! The children even followed him to the loo - presumably wanting to see just 'how' different he was He's off to Hong Kong at the end of this month to take up another post, and to start learning Cantonese - he is fluent in Mandarin already
His younger brother Matt who was also there this afternoon is taking a similar course to Becky, but at Nottingham instead, and is off to Romania this summer to study wolves and bears, and is hoping to do an exchange year in Canada...........Isn't it amazing what opportunities there are these days for young people?
