Day 13 - Still Seoul Searching
... night the crass, noisy neighbours of Manchester City robbed Man Utd of the league in the most agonising of circumstances, which was at about 1am Seoul time. I had lots of people to confort me at that darkest of moments.
Yesterday I became "Jim Teacher", taking classes with Paul Teacher all afternoon. It was more like being a children's TV presenter, and instead of the planned lecture on ...
A giant hike around history
... One, which seemed quite difficult to me, was to throw and arrow into a vertical metal tube/holder. The young boy too was struggling, but a young man came along and with his first, second and third tries made it in. I was impressed!
