New Bust-blocker from Happy Jellyfish People’s Democratic Language Bureau!
Damn – I’ve done it! I’ve gone and betrayed my love, the Cantonese language. Well, all I’ve said about it is true and right, and it is my beloved language number 1A. It’s just that … I can’t jolly well pretend Mandarin doesn’t exist, can I? Especially when you’re actually IN Mando-land itself: Mainland China.
So for my latest DVD, Stay Grounded, I have added lots of Mandarin expressions to help you when you’re travelling around China without a guide. It’s almost two hours of unbridled joy, taking you all the way from Hong Kong to Almaty in Kazakhstan by train, bus, car and camel, all the while seeking out the best food and beer, the least “malpriced” hotels, the most beautiful views and the best times of day to avoid hordes.
We show you how to get out of an embarrassing police semi-arrest, and how to keep your stuff safe whether you have it with you or not.
This film premieres Thursday December 8th at 7pm in the Honolulu Coffee and Cake Shop, 33 Stanley street in Central. As the film is damned long, I will only show a ten minute extract, but it will give you a fair idea of what lurks between the two covers. Do come along! Beer extremely cheap.
