Their English is often better.

Before Vinapu's stamp collection was established?

Most don't know where Europe is!

Qin Dynasty Unification: Around 220 BC, Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China, ordered the unification and expansion of existing fortifications, connecting them into a single defensive system. Dynastic Contributions: Successive dynasties, including the Han, Bei Wei, and Ming, continued to build, repair, and expand the wall system. Ming Dynasty's Contribution: The Ming Dynasty (1368–1644) is credited with building the most recognizable sections of the Great Wall that we see today. See development of wall. As stated Ming Dynasty, 14th to 17th century, built most of Wall seen today. The earliest walls, built by the Chu State in the 7th century BC, were made of rammed earth and stone.

Er, the great Wall is mostly rubble, and a lot of the parts you now visit are reconstructed.

In the doorway is advised, especially if there is an RSJ there. That's what we did in Lima, while keeping hold of our gin and tonic!

OK!

My friends here say its now quite common, but 10% is fine.

Some still count as twinks! ☺️

Collapsed like a house of cards. Terrifying.

You are right, but the fact is, that in the US, waiting staff are not paid a proper wage. I used to go to a Peruvian/Japanese fusion restaurant in NY, W44th, which proudly said that tipping was not expected, 'as we pay our staff a proper wage'. Needless to say, that did not last.

How much is 'Custom', I've always wondered. I've never selected it. I'm now in Melbourne, where the suggested tip starts at nil, then 5%, 10%, 15%. Much more reasonable.

I believe, that strictly speaking Buddhism is not a religion, as there is no God. It is a way of life, so to speak.

At security in the US, they check your passport, or other photo id, and your boarding pass. You can use your driving licence, which goes in a slot on the machine, which takes a photo of you to check.

I thought most, if not all, major airports are Cat III. You can see the sign as you taxi to the runway. LHR for example. It was at LHR, I believe, many years ago that I heard the comment about the instrument landing. There was perfect visibility, so I assume that they were just testing.

I agree, but I would like to know how many takeoff and landings are automatic. I vaguely remember, years ago, occasionally the pilot would announce, as we were taxiing to the stand, that it had been an instrument landing. Not heard this for many years. I also recall an apocryphal story, I hope, that the early Airbus used a computer based on that in a French tank!

The computer flies the plane!

That's what they all say.

Must be, I watched several documentaries on the topic. Theme seems to be not allowed to speak your native language, made to work long hours, poor conditions, harsh treatment, including sexual abuse.

Indeed!

Yes, indeed. Ditto Australia and others. Even in the UK, the charity Dr Barnados sent orphans to Australia, who suffered very badly. Many other examples.

No more BDSM?

Sooner than you think. I never used a company credit card for additional activities!

How many people did you run down when driving while high and drunk?

I assume tattoos?
