Items of Interest
I cannot resist mentioning the hilarious article in the March edition of the Journal - it certainly made a change from the norm! Ostensibly originating from Oz, it regaled a tale of two Chinese tri-seater motorcycles. What larks, especially when one considers the meaning of the Hokien and Cantonese names used, in addition to various risque intimations. Two female oriental acquaintances were highly amused when asked to translate. Unfortunately, the meanings in most instances are far too rude to divulge on the website. Perhaps the piece was intended for the April issue?Secretary:
Pleased to report that Rick Andrews has been nominated to the post.
Has anyone any information on the charming photo of the two young gals above? I came across it when perusing the photo archive.
