Well hi there stranger!
How nice to hear from you again, John! Back teaching in China , wow! Just had a quick look at a couple of previous blogs & saw you taught at Taizhou Teachers College. My old stamping ground! Have a vague recollection that you mentioned it at the time. Look forward to reading more of your blogs & it may motivate me to restart mine!
