What a lovely surprise to receive your letter; neat, clean, controlled-unlike my own, but like those from my dear friends.... I'm delighted that you now seem to have found your feet. You should have a much more interesting time and lead a much more gratifying existence in London than in Hong Kong.... The day has come, at long last.... I miss my soul-mates like you and all the others who've upped and gone. Peter is an interesting bloke. I haven't seen him for 6 months and I hear he's disillusioned. I'm not sure he quite knows what he wants....

Yes. The day has come, at long last，在你最爱吃的荔枝上市的时节。想到这样的日子，我突然觉得我不应该再给你写英文信了，虽然你是英国人。十几二十年前在北京和台湾住了那么久，你对中国的认识，你的中文造诣，你绝对明白我的心情。明天就是政权移交的日子了，我们这里跟随中国的说法，叫“回归”。你学中文的年代当然还不时兴这个词。你小声用国语念这两个字，温馨得很，不是吗？我也很喜欢这两个字，跟你们英文的home-coming一样那么soul-inspiring。可是这一阵子所有的人都在用这两个字，像月亮，走到哪里都会看到，实在有点滑稽，弄得我没有办法正确表达我心里对七月一日的感受，我只好改说“回家”，说“归人”。……
