Chinese are the masters of turning the blind eye ...

















at least so they say. But some things that we keep hush hush are just not considered that way here. People don't go to adult shops ... apparently. But some must do if this shop stays in business. Sexy underwear and adult supplies.... yes I think I will investigate.

And I know you have seem a thousand signs of Chinglish but I had to take a pic of this bank sign the other day walking by. Seems they have both the Shaoxing City Bank AND the Shaoxing Citry Bank. Progressive place huh.

Oh and for the people from CE Facilities Dept, here are a couple of pics of cleaning Chinese style. At least the washing of the mops and equipment. That is in the canal, river, whatever is handy. No sign of a mop bucket. Interesting stuff and quite amusing.
Walking in the street the other day in a part of town Idont normally walk and woo, there is a part of Australia. A store I have not seen before. Very impressive outside and in. Lots of home things and chinese shop assistants who almost speak English. Nice. A bit expensive though and did see any vegemite. But lots of wine and other Oz goodies. Made me a little homesick really for a minute. I have recovered now .. thanks.
cheers, always interested in your comments
Mike
