During our trip to Macau last year we found ourselves dining in the first three-Michelin-starred restaurant we’ve ever managed to get a table at, it being close to impossible to do such things in the UK without a) booking three years’ in advance and b) committing bank robbery on a grand scale to pay for…

Travel 2011 – Macau, Day 4
Wednesday 16th November Wednesday we didn’t intend achieving much though we did have to go and collect the long lens from the locker in the press centre (my fault for leaving it there and not thinking that I would need it on Thursday morning and wouldn’t necessarily want to go all the way to the…
