I told my wife that a husband is like a fine wine; he gets better with age. The next day, she locked me in the cellar.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4729.jpg |

After half a century of living in the UK most of it watching the Wire my company has given me a posting to China.
As of Saturday I will be Shanghai Wire. I am starting the Shanghai Branch of the Warrington Wolves Supporters Club. As far as I can tell I will be the Chairman, President, Treasurer and founder member.
The first challenge will be finding a way of watching the Wigan match, legally of course.
If anyone is passing through feel free to PM me.

[b:33tg3xj5]Me:[/b:33tg3xj5] I'm still reeling from the news that someone is considering watching the 1st and 3rd game on Saturday and NOT watching Warrington play. It's like being in Shea Stadium when the Beatles came to town and deciding to nip out for a fag.
[b:33tg3xj5]knockersbumpMKII:[/b:33tg3xj5] Is it FOOK, you're good but you're not THAT good, jesus you wanky fans need to get over yourselves, Beatles at the Shea in '65 was a once in a lifetime opportunity for some (despite the following years performance), you can watch a very good team in primrose & yellow play every week if you really wanted to but comparing it to one of the very best music groups of all time in an iconic stadia such as the shea is overegging your importance, you're not even the best team in SL atm:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_50086.jpg |

Jesus. Congratulations [?].
That's one great thing about the internet, it allows people to stay in touch many miles away. Quite a few who use the board live miles away-
Yed - London
Sally C - South Africa (or at least used to I think)
Cat - Mars

I work for a Chemical company and will be flogging some of the stuff we make in Warrington to our friends out East. I will be home every couple of months.
Watching the games is a challenge, NRL is on in the expat bars but nothing from UK. Of course football is no problem.
I have a few options for watching the games on the net and Sunday will be my first attempt.

forget internet streams in china, their net is so restricted it's untrue, you may even struggle to get on this forum.

Wow - Shanghai is an amazing place. Definitely better to live there than Beijing I would say. You should feel at home anyway as the Bund looks just like the front at Liverpool!
Have a great time and good luck.
If I ever go over for the Chinese GP I'll look you up!!

| Just love these companies that send products over to China. within 12 months, they will be copied and the Chinese become market leaders, ergo, redundancies for British workers.
Don't forget, no public speaking, no religious material, no pornography, and the Chinese Royal Family never existed.
Have fun  |

You have never been there have you, there are ways to see anything on the net in China, I have friends who go to church and there is more free thinking than the press here make out.
If I see the game online I will report back.
I have not read Tony Parsons book but I can guess what it's about as I have been to China umpteen times.
As for killing British jobs I have been flogging in Asia for 12 years and China for 8 we are going strong and growing in China hence my move. 
And yes I am married

Never really took to China, can't say it's one of my favourite places. Good luck with you job placement though!
