Omg, thank you so much LE, I needed a good laugh and those two fruits certainly helped me on that...now tell me, were those two just dressed up for the entertainment or do they really think they're women?

Good images Lotus. I especially liked the one of George and Con playing dress ups at the Filipino restaurant.

The guys from the entertainment troupe are as gay as a row of boy scout tents. But I had a great time dancing with them - and thankfully gretch wan't there so those photos I can control!!! I have been to the restuarant before, so they knew me, and this time our new FT - an Indian computing teacher was with us - and for a Thai restuarant, the head chef is Indian - so he came over to help us order the best dishes, arranged a VIP card for both of us, and we had a great time.
I'm thinking of inviting the troupe to my next party - they will really liven things up for me!!

That's probably as good a use for "China Daily" as I've ever seen.

Gretch, I think the illustrious judges must have come from a couple of my classes. Especially the ones with the cell phones.
