Nothing says 'Christmas' like Dim Sum

Great chance to catch up with my old friend André, he being a former colleague from my time working in international development. One of the gentlest, most sincere people I know and, as I might have previously mentioned, a brilliant sculptor.

Had a very nice pre-snowmageddon lunch, only interrupted once by the aging Chinese couple on the table behind, who told us the snow was starting and if we had to go far, we'd better leave soon. I asked them if they had far to go. "Yes," said the lady. "Long way." "We're going to Stittsville, dear," said her husband. To me, I think.

Stittsville is about 15km away.
