OK first of all I apologies again for being so very very crap at keeping up this blog. I have started my Mandarin classes and even though they are only a couple hours a day, I feel like I really want to apply myself to that and try to maximise each lesson so I spend most free time I get studying. More on that later.

For now though I thought I’d just share with you a couple of wacky things that have caught my eye over the past couple days. First of all, have a look at these and tell me, do these not look like the most delicious thing you have ever seen?

(Answer: no, they do not.)

I have been thinking about getting remarried lately. Unfortunately though that would mean I would have to get divorced first, and I don’t really want that. The thing is though, if I don’t get to have another wedding, that means I will never have the opportunity to wear this dress:
and what girl has not dreamed of walking down the aisle in a beautiful gown like that?

And finally, today I walked past the hoardings for a construction site for a development that appears to be nearly finished. Looks like it is meant to be a new shopping/dining zone (not enough of those in this town yet, apparently), made partially from new buildings and some refurbed historic ones, a bit like a Xintiandi for Pudong (some of you will know what I mean by that, for those who are going “a whaaa???”, sorry). Anyway this site is near where we live, I have been past it in a taxi a hundred times, but never walked it before today. So on the hoardings there’s an illustration, a rendering of the finished concept if you will:

Never really scrutinised it before, going past it in a cab and all, but today I had a good look at it.

Notice anything?

Anything that makes you go, “WTF?”

Like this, perhaps?

Yeah, I don’t know what that’s about either.
