All a man needs??

I'm not sure that I agree with the small print. I very seldom do agree with the small print. I think I'd nominate sport, music, and salty snacks as my essential exceptions/additions.

Another quirky discovery on my trip to Harbin the other week. Alas, the 'bar' this was advertising was expensive, not very good, really more of a coffee shop - as were its two or three rivals, all the 'bars' I could locate in the city centre. But that's fairly typical of most Chinese cities I've visited. Proper bars are rare as hen's teeth; even Shanghai is not, I feel, as well catered to as Beijing. And we haven't exactly got scores to choose from..... that's why that 'Favourite Bars in Beijing/China' category never gets much bigger.
