This weekend was Chinese new year- Happy New Year! It is the year of the Tiger which sounds very exciting. Just in case you really want to get into the spirit of the year there is a Tiger skin in this weeks Christies South Ken sale. I went and stood on it on Friday, and he really is handsome beast in pretty good order. Apparently he was dispatched by one Captain Gage of the Royal Horse Artillery in the 1920's. Those were the days! It seems like Army officers had little to do except go hunting back then. I wonder what the taliban were up to.
