word of warning- i hope you realise that none of the sites listed above will take chinese bank cards. you'll need to have visa/mastercard for sure but most likely a card registered to a UK address.
The main version of QQ fills your computer with all sorts of junk but the international one (which uses the same protocols so can connect with Chinese users) is safe but only available in English, Japanese and French (no Chinese).
Web QQ is the most safe as it runs QQ in a virtual machine inside your browser (but I believe it only has Chinese GUI).
Kunming is NOT a tropical city. Not even close (well perhaps close geographically, but not meteorologically - at 2000m above sea level the temperature is fairly mild).
thanks very much, looks nice on the web.we've booked it now.
We're going to be going to Dali next week for a few days to visit family. Been there loads of times in the past but not for a couple of years and this will be first time with a child. Can anyone recommend a nice guesthouse in the old town that is toddler-friendly?

Eating bugs for health and environment
Posted byI've tried plenty of insects in Yunnan and while they are ok and I will happily eat if needed I don't think they are necessarily the answer to world hunger.
This TED talk by Allan Savory pretty much destroys much of the livestock/greenhouse gas theories. If it works, it would be a far better solution than grains or insects.

Posted byWell perhaps Mr Sichuan People's Congress you'd consider investing in Kunming because the project is worthwhile and you'd get a suitable return on your investment and not because you'll be treated to "entertainment".
Police - don't arrest those pursuing the oldest profession in the world unless you have some way to get them into decent employment. Arrest the party members who think its acceptable to spend tax payers money on "entertainment"!
