Boozed!

Shanghai, China


Came back for Friday night, one of Alyns friends Birthday was happening so we went out for a meal (tex mex) and had a lot of Mango Margaritas and Coronas. Stumbled in at 4. Had a very snazzy day Saturday having Brunch (at a proper brunch restaurant) then strolling through the French concession area drinking the odd coffee and eating cakes, How jolly!
Same evening went for another meal with some other of Als mates (amazing North Indian fare) and then went to a Jazz club who'd shipped over a group playing fantastic Franco American stuff. The club was ace absolutely packed with the dull red light and the whiff of cigars. Lots of classy people there and me with my curly mullet and skanky shoes, I felt a bit out of place.

Next day was recuperation then a train to Huangshnan in the evening. Alyn of course went to work the next morning, I really don't think I could keep up the expat lifestyle!

Anyway thanks to Al for allowing me to freeload a bit. I'm now back to skimping and probably not drinking much more til I get home!

Dan,

I've used your blog in a House Assembly at school.

It was only a matter of time :)

No I've used the bits from the unexploded ordnance.

Doing something on Landmines.

Were a church school, thought it best not to mention the booze ;)
