Yes, he was a bit jumpy for a few days. That and the way he moved the furniture in front of the doors and windows with his nose (he's a strong begger) and hoarded all his food under the sofa. Then he started leaving messages spelled out with dog biscuits, stuff like "WW3 U FOOLS" and "DEATH FROM ABUV" and so on. Then he went strange, started doing lots of exercises, went really lean and got tattoos. Now he's in charge of house security. But generally, he's fine.

And you're damn right. There should be a fiendishly clever web app that renders it all sensible and rational. Probably running on one of those supercomputers the Met Office recently invested in.

As I said at the end of the article, I rather like how dotty is all is. It's like having different European currencies - less efficient (arguably), less safe (arguably), but *interesting*. A touch of the Mervyn Peake about it all.

September, eh? Enough time for me to gallivant Londonwards for a farewell-for-now visit, then. Good show.

The first photo is apparently Beijing - nicely in keeping with one of my points in the post.

And I know the Chanel bike. $6k? I thought it was nearer $15k. If you *can* get it for $6k, there's a hefty profit to be made if you can bear to sell it again!

There's something funny about the penultimate photo, Jen. I've posted it before, in the last version of this blog, so some people will know what it is. But it's not quite as it seems. ;)

Regarding looking good on a bike - no pressure.
You were in Beijing? Tell all! And how was the Beijing road system geared up to use bikes (no pun intended)?

And then ride it, sir. Ride it until your legs combust.
