Am I not Farang?


For just one night on 14 nov 2005 I stayed in Beijing's tallest hotel. The room was on the 49th floor or something. Good thing was that is was around the corner of the 3501 Government Store where I bought the drab army coat I'm wearing in the "Diggin' for Gordon" photo. I had been in the shop before, wanting to buy the coat, but for some reason it was "not possible" and I couldn't find out why. So on the second occasion I insisted, and the "not possible" seemed to be because you could only wear and use the coat was when you had to stand guard with a rifle. Fair enough. I bought one and I'm standing guard with a shovel....
