The credit crunch, and the reliance of Hong Kong on the financial sector, is having an unexpected impact on the playground where Eve goes. After a whole year of never seeing a father during the week, there are now a couple of mid-40s, well dressed Dads there with their young offspring. They join the nannies and mummies by the slide at a time when they would have, presmuably, previously been working at their highly paid banking job and never seeing their children.
There are some upsides to global meltdown then.
How did that happen?

Who are the upsides for, though? That's the question!
Yummy mummies, dishy dads?
LottieP - the upsides are clearly for the children and Dads, who get to see much more of each other now.
Also for the Mummies who no longer feel guilty about leaving their child with someone who is not a family member while they go to work.
And for me, because I get eye candy in the playground :o)
Anonymous - are you a dishy Dad?
Mais non, malheureusement.....
That is to say, I am a dad, but just not dishy
Anonymous, I am sure you are dishy to the people who matter. And probably lots who don't too.
