Hi from Shenzhen

[dnar]

I guys, not been very active lately due to my travels. Thought I would pop in to say hi and share some funny photos.

I have eaten some weird shit here, Frog, whole pigeon, grasshoppers, but this was the worst. Goose Foot.



I needed to turn up the ceiling fan cooling over my work position in the Shenzhen factory today, only problem was I couldn't work out which fan controlled was mine!!! Simple solution, crank them all to Max! Take-off!




See ya's on the civilised side.

I would love a detailed description of what manufacturing is like in china. You can pass on the goose foot though.

Hi Dnar,

I was over to China about two years ago !! Very beautiful country !! Very NICE PEOPLE... They all drive like CRAZY !!! And the food...yes....VERY,Very interesting....I had some Sea Cucumber....Well....It looked like a " Special Delivery" from the rear end of a dog....and tasted.....well like mud mixed with some sand....and all combined with jello !!!!! Yummmmmy !!

YIKES....must be an aquired taste !!!

But....I had some GREAT food. I did not ask too many questions !!! I figured....if they can eat it...So can I !!!....

One day....they served a very large black eel...VERY, Very good.....but as we were eating.....the eel lifted its head from the main serving plate....looked backwards over at me !!! I was stunned....But I thanked him for being such a health and tasty fellow !!! Pass the Mao Tai !!

And the Mao Tai !!! Wow.....That shit is ROCKET FUEL.....with a slight trace of Diesel Fuel !!! Gum By !! Your only advantage is likely a greater body mass !!!!!!

Have you tried the " Low Rider " toilets !!! That's a whoot...One good thing....nobody has to keep the seat clean !!! There is none !!!!!

Safe travels !!!

I'll give you the abridged version.

Anything from totally bollocks to pretty good. You have to select your partner very carefully... I am moving our high end DSP products from Shenzhen to Zhaoqing City after many many problems and a company in a downward spiral...

Mao Tai ! Yeah baby! ! ! ! ! That shit is expensive!!! I spotted a 1L bottle on a menu for 100,000 RMB !!!!

Bloody "squats" are fscked.... Try crapping without crapping on your trousers.... And they don't use toilet paper. This trip has been "interesting". Last friday night I developed crook guts. I woke up at 5am after farting in my sleep and "unloading" (read crapping through the eye of a needle) in the bed... The room was a horror story !!!! When I checked out they said, "hang on, we find pwobwem". I am like, oh crap here we go.... Hehe, the funny thing is my boss and I somehow ended up with each others room at checkin, so I doubt they will let him stay there again!!!!! FYI, I have been on anti-diarrhea tablets (12 per day) for 7 days now and counting... It's a pain when you travel by car and plane each 2 days across China... Bloody poor water quality to blame...

LOL. I am sitting in the Qantas lounge in Hong Kong waiting for my flight home in 3 hours, can't wait to get home to my creature comforts. I have a laser gig on Tuesday night too, the first in 3 months, can't wait.
