Dumpling making

I am a big fan of dumplings and this morning we visited another campus and learnt how to make them. Like Tai Chi, making dumplings is a lot harder than it looks. We all had fun, but since it took us over 2 hours to make them, and we usually pay less than 40p for 8 delicious dumplings from the student canteen, I don't think I'll be making anymore dumplings anytime soon!

I think that one of the strangest things about returning home will be the cost of food. Here I feel ripped of if I pay more than 50p for lunch (including a bottle of Sprite). However, not all food here is cheap. If you go out for dinner in a foreign restaurant dinner will cost around a massive £2!!
