Thumbs up KAH very active today!

Just sitting here looking out of my office window & watching all the little birdies coming into KAH. Good to see. Should be more of it IMHO.

If there's any chopper pilots on proon, what's it like to land there...and would you show me?

Good one DD!

I'm suprised I got the Kaptin with it, but absolutely flabbergasted that Whiskery didn't know it, especially where he's from! I got to TPE though Kaptin, strange but interesting place...nice little park "he" built for himself there! Didn't get out of the capital but I imagine the rest of it's all rock!

Snoop

Yep, you got me good on that one, Buster!

TPE...interesting...hmmm...I guess so.
Great Peking duck at affordable prices - when you find a clean place

Taipei does NOTHING for me, but from the little bit of Taiwan I've seen outside Taipei, it's an improvement from the pollution and squalour in the most parts of the capital.

I've also been told that the number of poles outside a barber's shop doesn't indicate the skill of the cutter, but DOES let the intending client know how many EXTRA services are available

Not again Buster.

The last time you did this, it took them weeks to find out.

Lame.
Wasn't even fishing this time.

Kaptin.
Interesting from the perspective of a "modern" city with unmistakeable Asian influence. Like wide avenues that still have the washing hanging out the windows. (Not being critical, just fascinated me at the time!)

Didn't know about the barber shops! But after flying up on EVA in EYCL, I asked the local AN reps where a good place to get a massage was. Boy, took some time to convince them that my nickname wasn't Alpine!!!!!!

Whiskery.
Don't take it too badly, I was wrong once as well!
