China in London

The China in London 2008 season was launched on yesterday with the annual lighting up of Chinese lanterns at Oxford Circus, but i missed it == because i went to work yesterday. I left 1 hour earlier, and there gone my 5 pounds. The boss really very calculative leee..... 25 pounds for 6 hours, left 1 hour earlier become 20 pounds ... gan seong aaaargghhh !!!
Those events started at 11am, especially the parade, but then i missed it... London's celebrationg for CNY began with a grand parade along the strand, charing cross road and shaftesbury avenue. Then they had dragon dances and a stage featuring the traditional and contemporary chinese arts and entertainments in trafalgar square.
