Big update

Haven't updated in a while, been mainly working and the free time I have had I spent in the city centre.

At the end of the week before last, I think, we all decided to go out and celebrate the trailer being completed so we went to a very interesting restaurant There were fake trees, fake bamboo and giant mushrooms to eat under
. It was our first real hot pot experience in china. So daring were we that we had ordered some wierd eel like fish, tasty bacon, chicken wings,pig insides, meat ball thingies with squirty juice inside. The name come after the sound it makes when you bite it and all the liquid gets squirted on the wall (like what happened to me) or over the person sitting next to you. A good hot pot meal isn't complete without of course, pig's brain. That was.....interesting, I have some photos of that . The texture is like biting into a foamy, disolving bit of meat. The thought of eating brain kinda puts me off aswell. :S

Me and Louis discovered this amazing little park, great place to visit, sit down on the grass and enjoy the sun. What's funny is there are a lot of todlers walking around with these odd trousers with big holes in the back which are there for easy pooing access :S .....lovely.... O_o...

When we went to Shanghai city centre to watch the film 2012 we saw this guy holding up puppies by their feet and brushing them to sell, poor things, one was shaking fro the cold, so we named him Shake shake.

Again we visited the artifact museum so I got some more photos of that, check out the "Mulan" horse!!

The old people must be really strong here, I got a photo of this old guy pulling 20 odd chairs strapped to theis wheelie cart thing.

Disaster struck friday evening, the TV broke so we couldn't play on the wii :(, however Louis introduced us to a very english series n his laptop , "the inbetweeners", good ol' english nostagia. We had a guy come in, but he can't fix the TV, looks like we need a new one...damn!

Two girls from the studio took us out for a meal at a dumpling place, I didn't know what I wanted so I randomly pointed at some things , turned out I bought donkey meat in dumplings and some grass stuff hahaha, wasn't too bad, but I'll stick to beef and chicken lol.

Today is the first day I've relaxed in ages, just at home writing the blog, not walking all over shanghai or working in the studio all day. Also had my first real deadline on friday, but got everyhing done, so wasn't too late getting home.
