Hello CB, <<echoing murmers of prayers for salvation>> Oops, this will be a tough one, not so much to do, but to keep the promises after forgiveness.
<<fish, shrimp, crabs, oysters, lobsters, scallops, octopus, squid, conch, sea urchins, caviar, and every other succulent creature of the sea and the waters of the earth>> Ooh, this is sounding very promising. Thanks for the colour, and now the pal's e-mail makes more sense.
<<You have to give up something you love, as a mortification of the flesh. Many give up booze, some chocolate>> For me, booze and chocolate can both go, because I do not love them. Something I love, to be given up in exchange? Tough choices.
<<What is the connection between Carnival, Lent, and investment?>> Intend to travel first to Tobago and then Trinidad in second half of February, attaching to Chinese Lunar New Year holiday starting on February 8th (8th to end of month will be not that productive in Chinese Asia), and check out suitability of TNT for relocation should HK continue to plunge into doomsville. At the end of the day for this global citizen located in doomsville, I can relocate to China for better business or Trinidad for better adventure, or elsewhere for a mix of both, but I have no wish to relocate to China, and so preparing the mind for 'Trinidad Called Me'.
