Your knowledge of geography is a bit weak. Don't forget Laos. Besides, with all those lovely Euro banknotes in your pocket from the sale of your apartment, you don't need strong legs. You could fly executive class and be pampered by nubile flight attendants. Whatever you do, don't try skiing (unless it's on water), as the snow has been a problem for some of your countymen and women, not seen since Stalingrad.

A good wind-up though. Ha Ha

I do not joke or like your British wind-up consisting of sex jokes and the German jokes. The school in Tianjin have given me the assurance that they will meet me in Beijing and give me escort to a comfortable apartment all ready prepared for me. I do not believe I will have to hitch and hike to South China but if I do it will all be meticulously planned in precision and I will succeed. I cannot spend the money from the selling of my apartment otherwise when the times comes around I will not have the money to buy another apartment. On my way to Beijing I will be respectful to the air hostesses.
