Drink Snow In China Have You Drunk The World’s Best-Selling Beer?

editor — Fri, 07 Jun 2019 21:50:00 +0000

I had to test a simple hypothesis: was the world’s best-selling beer the world’s best-tasting? This seemed like simple logic, as surely something that accounts for around one-in-20 of every beer brewed and drunk in the world has to taste good. I did the research for a previous my blog—The Best Beer in the World, which covers a few of the entries that are also in The Beer Bucket List in greater detail—and you can probably guess the answer to my theory was that it isn’t a delicious beer. In fact, far from being the best, it was more like

SHENZHEN WORLD MAP

SHOPPING IN CHINA THE EARLY DAYS Our first shopping expedition in China was in 1975. Things were different then. We’d read our Marx and our Hegel, you know, scientific dialectical materialism, from those who had to those who needed. Something like that. The only problem was that for a theoretically materialistic society there wasn’t much material. It was always the same. You’d wander into a lofty shop hall with dusty shelves were empty. A scowling woman with plaits or a revolutionary bob would eventually acknowledge your presence and spit out Yao shenma! Whaddaya want! You would stutter out your small

SHENZHEN MUSEUM

editor — Wed, 05 Apr 2017 03:48:00 +0000

The old Shenzhen Museum was dingy, dusty and unimaginative and heavily politicised. So it was with some interest that we looked forward to the opening of the new museum and on the day after Christmas 2008 we were lined up with the best of them. Waiting. The website said 9 a.m. but……..it was 10 a.m…. we’ve become philosophical about such things; so, we sat with our books and watched the crowds grow. And grow. By ten o’clock we were lined up, ten deep. The museum occupies most of the eastern wing of the Shenzhen Civic Centre and we were fully
