I stand corrected, I was ill informed about the circumstances. I have been told the the GG threatened to dissolve parliament and Whitlam resigned.
I was wrong, Mae Culpa
Regards the word 'royalty', I think it is generally treated as an uncountable noun.
He is royalty
They are royalty
But there are exceptions, which is why I used the term 'generally'.
The reigning monarch in the UK is the Head of State
The Government is His/Her Majesty's Government. He/She is the Head. The monarch is still required to sign every piece of law, and can refuse to sign and piece of law. Although this refusal has not happened for a long time.
Unlike most countries, the UK does not a a written constitution (one single document). The constitution is wrapped up in many documents, statutes, traditions, and recognised practices. It also can and does change.
The GG did not sack Whitlam as such.
The GG cannot do that.
I think you may have miss heard.
There is a subway (not Subway) rail line opening near Metro (not metro), but it is currently under construction.
No results found.
Great to know it is no longer dry.
Good review BTW
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.
Six-day visa-free transit on offer in Kunming, other cities, beginning January 1

Sichuan water release devastates parts of northwest Yunnan
Posted byIf the barrier lake had filled, and then dam collapsed, the impact would have been much greater. An interesting follow up would be about formation of development of this barrier lake, and what led to the decision to act.
Beijing approves massive Changshui International Airport expansion
Posted byA thought on the aging population in China. We should not forget the economic changes that have occurred in the last two generations.
The people of retiring age over the next 10 years (50-65 now) are the generation who made the big money. What will they do with the money when they have time on their hands? One of the things they will likely do is travel.
This generation of middle class retirees is not the poor, financially dependent, aged who rely on their children for support. In fact many of them are supporting their children financially.
These people are mobile and rich enough to travel in a way that their parents could only have dreamed of. There are millions of them.
Beijing approves massive Changshui International Airport expansion
Posted byI would guess that the number of people who will be able to afford to travel by air will continue to increase, even if the population declines.
As for there being not a lot to do in Kunming, it has always been the springboard to other places in Yunnan. I just see more people using the springboard.
