The BIG GAME was of course on Wednesday night. (Of course, that meant that it was on Thursday morning in China, but that's not what The Chairman had meant when we last spoke about it - there had been quite a protracted discussion about when we might meet on Thursday evening, and how much we might suffer for it on Friday morning...)
Luckily, I soon discovered this mistake (by reading the China Daily, of all things!).
Or perhaps 'unluckily'. If I had continued to labour under the misconception, I might have been spared the direct experience of this latest national humiliation.
