Russia has threatened to use “nuclear force” to defend its annexation of Crimea and warned that the “same conditions” that prompted it to take military action in Ukraine exist in the three Baltic states, all members of Nato.
I have a little story.
Today. Mid-day, walking back from Morning shift at work:
Busy pavement in the center Kunshan, man approaches me on his pushbike.
It’s usual to get bikes on the pavement in China, this guy was right in the middle of the pavement, not at the side, like you should be.
Also, he was heading in the wrong direction, even though there is no direction for pedestrians.
Bloke proceeds to head RIGHT toward me and I mean RIGHT at me. He hits me, and I push him out of the way, in the shoulder to avoid the full force of the blow. …
Housemate from the US has parted company.
He had problems with meeting his responsibilities , and at the weekend had a bottle of beer. Or two , some Bacardi , and also some vodka.
I disappeared for the weekend , went to Nanjing.
When I came back, I heard the sound of tins being opened early in the morning.
About 6am.
This isn’t the first time this has happened.
Last weekend he drank all my brandy and the police came round because he was outside smashing things up.
He had a habit of sleeping in odd places ‘close to nature’.
People would wake me to come to the aid of Edward, outside, in a pool of his own wee (or whatever ). Sometimes he was conscious , sometimes not.
China has it’s fair share of alcoholic teachers.
The Russian I used to work with was drunk 24/7.
One of the other teachers commented “I never realized he was drunk till I saw him sober .”
Another stocked up on Bijiou to get him through his day at Kindle.
On Monday it all came to a head when Ed turned up for work on the sauce.
Police were called. Poor Eddie had to spend the best part of the day in the cells explaining and clearing things up with the Chinese authorities 。
Employers , linestart have threatened to blackball him.
Effectively making it impossible for him to get work in China.
There’s a letter.
Why is George Bush apt to carp on about Iran?
He’s like a broken record.
It’s hackneyed.
It’s old.
Was in Lloyds bank the other day when this bloke brought in a load of statements and his Hungarian identity card trying for a loan.
He had difficulty understanding, to get a loan, you need statements from your country of residence, 3 months of them.
You need bills and a passport.
fuck off
Of course the teller let them have the money anyway because we have a lending culture.
