Swilling my undies with his song

I stayed at the Intercontinental Hotel in Dalian, northern China.They had a pillow menu, if you weren’t satisfied with the one you had. The bathroom had these crystal birds, which I assumed were to dry your undies on.

    Was going for “not worst” on pillows, but then saw the “medical” properties of jade being heralded. And the red mist descended…

    Nice swans, though. Did you bring them home?

    Fantastic. They have a pillow menu and the Australian tourism industry wonders why it’s in the doldrums.

    • I also thought the front page photo of plane that later crashed a waste of time. “Widow shows photo” is front page material?

        Right on TLA. I love the Mexican & South American newspapers that rejoice in some muertos but that was just stupid & bizarre. Should have been in the business pages – someone may have realized that a mine, train line & export facilities aren’t going to make themselves over those mountains before 2013.

    The crystal swans look far too much like something my Nanna would have had in her house. Not something I’d expect to see in a hotel. She probably would have had them in the bathroom too, along with the old toilet roll dolly and a fern.

    Thanks for sharing your undies with everyone TLA. Hope they were clean ones you chose to photograph!

    If it was cheaper to buy new undies than have them washed, why did you need to hang them to dry?

    Unless …

    Quick, someone pass me a scrubbing brush & soap for my mind’s-eye.
