Aaah

I am back, and a little bruised, having tried to chase a taxi for one block in Shenzhen, as it drove off with my suitcase still in the trunk. I was saved, for the taxi driver had no intention of wearing my skidmarked crusties (he merely forgot there was a case), and all taxis in China give receipts that detail the time, distance, fare - and taxi number. Thanks again to Tosh & Angel for their help in retrieving my LadyBoy's lingerie.

Books read: 'River Town' by Peter Hessler (fab, and can't wait to start 'Oracle Bones'), 'We' by Zamyatin and 'A Journey to the End of the Russian Empire' by Chekhov.
