For leather stuff, I thought laterally.
It is not modelling but hobby/craft. Did a quick look on google maps and searched [Kunming craft]

It came up with 3 craft suppliers.
It would be useful to know if you check them out, what they stock. I use a lot of craft type stuff as well.

I think the site management acted reasonably.

The thread was not deleted.
It was locked.

All can see the communication between James and Keats. Nothing has been hidden. You can put away the conspiracy theories.

Threads like that, and this one, can easily go down hill. WHEN threads do go down hill it serves nobody. It does goKunming no good, it does no good to the affected parties, and it doesn't do the community on here any good. The only people who can get anything out of it are the trolls.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Help with driver's license test still exist in Shangarila?

I agree with you Ocean. I do see the law broken a lot, especially those rules that require the driver to yield.

But there are many occasions where I thought the driver was cutting people up, when in fact he has the right of way.

Also overtaking on the nearside lane on the highway is not illegal. In China there is no overtaking lane as such. You may pass on either side. Knowing this may prevent you from being swiped by another vehicle, if you predominantly only check the mirrors for what you consider to be the fast lane.

There are several other rules that go against the UK highway code (I assume there are other examples from other country's regs), and seem counter intuitive (to what we were taught). Knowing these differences has changed the way I see Chinese driving, and has helped learn more about the 'rules of the road' (not regulations but the accepted norms for driving).

One thing I did notice about the test questions/answers. I don't recall seeing many prohibitions about driver behaviour, other than the road signs (no right turn etc.). In fact it is almost a charter for bad driving. Basically, if the other guy is breaking the law, yield. Almost a recipe for cutting people up.

I spent a week studying for my test, but it could have been done in 3 days.

It is worth studying for the test. It will make your driving much safer and less stressful. How? by making you more aware of how/why local drivers do things, you can also anticipate better.

Over the years I have been in cars where the driver, so I thought, was driving like an a****le. Now I have studied the Chinese traffic regs I can see that the drivers were within the law. What they did was not only legal, but for other drivers was predictable. And now that I know, that other drivers know what our driver is doing (and is therefore safer) it is a lot less stressful.

In addition, I am much less likely to suffer from road rage on a BCD.

If anyone wants an electronic copy of the test questions, in English, please PM me with your email address. I can forward them to you.

I have had very fast service to UK.
You may have been unlucky or got the wrong level of service.

It will probably live much longer than its peers, which will end up in the soup.
As the goat seems to be supporting itself and getting around on two legs, there would be little need for the support wheels.

In the outlying areas of Kunming, Guandu and southwards, and out to the airport,elevated tracks have been used.Elevated tracks have been used, but if you already have a developed city then tearing down existing buildings, in many areas, can be controversial and expensive. If you go underneath you leave intact the destinations that people want to travel to.

This has moved.
The cut flowers are about 700m east on Duonan Jie. The plants and trees are about 700 m west and follow Duocai Section.

A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.

Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.

In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.

They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.

They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.
