Would love to stay in the hutongs when I go back to Beijing. 

Is there much conservation effort across China to save these old streets now?

Do you plan to add the dialogues to these old Qing Wen 请问 lessons?

It's expanding so far as well. I last went to Shanghai three years ago, was looking at a map of the subway there seems to be about double the number of lines now.

A summer classic, but being British Pimms is my usual. You can add 草莓 to it.

My Grandfather had an old story of visiting London as a boy. He gave up his seat to an old man. In those days there was a limit of five standing people on the deck and by giving us his seat he became the sixth, and was promptly asked to alight (leave) by the conductor!
