[quote=DODGER,383469]Yolanda, last Christmas was a little quite for me here as I don’t go to bars and stuff, but as I have 62 pandas at a small school to the east of Beijing I decided take over and show them just some of the traditional things that happen at this time of the year. So I’ve bought a tree with light and decorations and placed it at the school. I’ve also purchased 62 presents for 28 boys and 34 girls. My Wife’s assistant is wrapping them up as I type this note. So come Christmas day, Santa, or as he is called where I come from, Father Christmas will appear with a Ho, Ho, Ho and hand out presents. The wholesale market I use is just passed the 2nd ring road going west, 3 roads up from the main drag. Rare to see foreigners there as there are no brands, but lots of market traders from out of town. Negotiating for tangible goods is fairly straight forward, it’s negotiating for intangible product (at the time) that is the most difficult. I find just smiling a lot and calling myself an idiot in Chinese usually works, if not I use the “barking dog” or the “Kow Tow “close. They never fail. Dodger. [/quote]
