Almost the dragon

Manchester prepares for the Year of the Dragon, which begins next week on 23 January. In Chinese astrology, the dragon is the only animal that is not real but it is special and revered, as a symbol of power, superiority and rule. People born in the year of the dragon are powerful and wise. They are "doers" who achieve power by getting things done. But they can breathe fire, so watch out if you make them angry. Recent years of the dragon were 2000, 1988, 1976 and 1964. So, not me then.
