Ughhh Parents and schools are impossible- some parents want their kids to stay away from Covid so they can travel, some want their kids to get it now so they can travel later, some are petrified of Covid. Perfect storm of nonsense but totally understandable #Shanghai

It's still great value for money, one of the world's great white wines, made in limited quantities and widely available globally to people that care- for less than 70US$ a bottle I think thats just fine, #spectacularsouthafrica @WineofSouthAfr1

今月はサディが入ります!円安で、ついに希望小売が大台に乗っかってしまいましたが…小売店側でもうちょいお得に買えるよう頑張ります! そして今年のスカーフバーグはとても良い!!

After a breathtaking trip here's my take on @TheBuyer11 about why South Africa is like no other wine producing country in the world & why some buyers are paying it a disservice if they see it as a place for value wines & need to look at the wider picture https://t.co/daCvyX0CnY

A magical place in a magical city, fond farewells and a room full of memories and people that have made Shanghai such a huge part of my life. Proud to call M a friend and the best mentor you could wish for M on the Bund Farewll -Trailer https://t.co/COD56v8j1n via @YouTube

Much wisdom and common sense from a mentor and friend Michelle Garnaut Why I’m back in bewitching, elusive Shanghai

Australian A-list restaurateur Michelle Garnaut can’t stay away from the megacity - a microcosm of rapidly-changing, enigmatic China.

I came in January of 1999, got the adrenaline rush of a city going places- feeling slightly different in 2022 but stories for another day. For the past 20 years or so Shanghai has been the most exciting city on earth, bar-none

This policy is totally insane as my child's school has insisted she stay at home for the past 14 days as we had to leave Shanghai, if you left for MAF you just needed tests

I think it must have been done by someone at the German school, the brown and light blue squares are 1km from where we are near EuroCampus! Super cute

So here is a lovely story- our elderly Shanghainese neighbours called me to the hedge yesterday, Grandpa "I wanted to get a dog, my wife said no, but I have all the provisions" he passed over a huge pile of dog-food! People are kind
