... he likes Celine Dion!!! 

Here, have some a white wine spritizer while you lsiten to Celine Poutine, ...
Celine Poutine? I love it.

For those who don't know, poutine is a Quebecois specialty. Fries, cheese curd, then a lot of hot gravy to melt the curds. It is significantly less ghastly than it sounds.

Celine owns a chain of restaurants called Nickels, and various family members run it. 1950s style with burgers, milkshakes, pictures of Marylin, Elvis, Jimmy Dean, etc. Mostly in Quebec, one in Ottawa, dunno about anywhere else. Not a bad place. I don't know if they have poutine, though.
Who put a stop payment on my reality check?

G'day and welcome to dasein and all the others that I've yet to meet.
still debating between Wuhan and Suzhou
Unbiased opinion coming up here, concerning which seems to be the better city. SUZHOU!!  Get it, SUZHOU!!  Mind you, great job in a krappy city probably beats a krappy job in a great city.  Been to both places, worked in neither.

Good on you, mate, keep up the good work. jjjjjjjjjj

Hiya

I am Mr Barfly. One of the newest members in the Saloon.  I have just turned 31 this month.  I am from Bristol in England so I think I talk like a farmer but people dont seem to mention it over here that much. I have been in China since January, before that I was travelling around the globe, mostly in the middle east though.  I am loving China and I am hoping to stay here for a very long time, especially if I keep meeting great people like Missi.

Welcome, Mister Barfly. Always nice to have a globetrotter in our midst. So, where have you been travelling to? I would like to say that China is full to the brim with people like Missi but we both know she is fabulously unique agagagagag. Have a drink on me agagagagag

Well I started my travels in November, I went to Sweden first for three weeks, god its boring there.  Then I went to Jordan for a month, it has changed alot since I went there 2 years ago. Then I passed through Eilat which was an absolute nightmare.  I spent Xmas and new years in Sharm, Egypt which was amazing.  Then I got offered this job in China, so I popped to Thailand first for 2 weeks and then made my way to China and I love it here.  I have been to alot of other countries but I find Asia and the Middle East the most interesting.

You went to Sweden??? Of all the Scandinavian countries, you went to a place that should be renamed Puritanica?? Dear chap, you should have popped across the water, Denmark is much more fun than Sweden and we have the same number of pretty blonde, blue-eyed girls.

I have never been to the Middle East, apart from a two-week holiday in Egypt. Did not have much time to figure out if the place was interesting, as I got sun shock and was therefore delirious and laid up in the shade for most of the trip. I like ME cooking though, big fan of that. As for Asia, I hear ya agagagagag agagagagag

Cheeky, ever been to Sweden?? Ever encountered their alcohol laws?? Ever been on the main street in Copenhagen on a Friday or Saturday?? Ever taken the ferry from Elsinore to Stockholm??? Ever traversed Elsinore city on a weekend?? If you had, you would know why it should be renamed Puritanica....

Naughty, Cheeky, naughty cbcbcbcbcb cbcbcbcbcb Puritans are not too keen on many things. Remember the old joke: Why do Calvinists frown on sex? They fear it may lead to dancing.

Mister Barfly was very correct when he invoked a deity to confirm just how deplorably dull Sweden is.
