I scampered back from the US, as much as you can in 15+ hours - got in on Sunday night just before Typhoon Usagi hit - as in just before - landed at 6.15pm and the T8 signal went up at about 6.45. Otherwise I would have spent some time in Taipei or, who knows? Had then to pay a taxi-driver obscenely to take me home (he knew it was a sure thing, I was happy to cough up). As it happens we were very lucky, and the nastiness turned north just before Hong Kong, and we were pretty much completely sheltered in Sheung Sze Wan. After it had all passed by I went for a walk with Ange in the steamy mist - great to be home.
