A family who plays together stays together
Do we allow enough time in our busy lives to play together as a family?
Not enough, is the conclusion. It's hard when the news cycle is whirring away. Geraldine is back in Jakarta on the weekend for a visit and will be doing lots of hide and seek with the grandkids.

And what a time it's been in Malaysia. Finally a good news story out of the region.
