Money - lots of it

Today I had the ultimate Hong Kong experience. I was seconded to another centre of our organisation to help a Hindi speaking client and the work involved withdrawing $130,000 dollars from one bank and crossing Nathan Road to deposit it at another. How was the large bundle of notes carried? In a Hello Kitty bag of course. For ten minutes I felt very cool and exciting.

And I have to mention this cos I'm quite proud - I just googled 'Chungking Mansions' trying to find a population estimate of the building. The work newsletter that I wrote last year came up on the first search page! I feel like quite the authority.
