不真实的!在这里会有海雕迷! 'Sea-eagles fan'!

It isn't a great year for the Sea-Eagles, bring back the Beaver.  Go Manly (I wish)... :) and as for the Wallabies that's too tragic.

The session is great because it sent me off researching...

Speaking on the subject with a Chinese friend I asked about 按摩 and 推拿 and she opined that these are semi-separable 不能说‘推过拿’,但是可以说’推拿,推得。。。‘ .  Are these two another class with usages between the inseparable ( eg 告诉) couplets and the fully separable (睡觉) couplets?

She also said that both 见过面 and 见面过 are acceptable.
