Milking the capital
After spending just two nights I’m Beijing, I’m certainly no expert on the place. However I was given some good tips on where to go by experts, and had a stellar time in the city.
Many, many, many thanks to WoAiZhongGuo, CP/Chas and Craig McMahon.
Since there is a minor sporting event coming up, I thought I would use my time in Beijing to try and score some google hits. Shameless, I know, but what can you do?
So I’ve written an Official* Whoop-whoop Guide To The 2008 Summer Olympics in Ye Old Beijing
Thanks for the link to the error page, James. You must have plugged it in backwards.
I think this is the page James wants to link to.

I think T’s right- fixed it now.
Hows the smog? Jon Stewart is making fun of it on TV as I type
tins, you can’t even see the smog there’s so much shite in the air these days
‘Twas good to see you sir. Did you actually manage to get a game of crazy golf?
Craig- aye good to see you too. We did play crazy golf in Ri Tan Park yeah. It’s lucky we listened to you and not any of the helpful attendants:
“Can we play golf in this park?”
“No, but there’s a yoga centre”
I think the people who work in that park believe all yoga centres have a crazy golf course attached as standard.
The smog was fine by the way, no worse than Shanghai on the days we were there.
Oh and I beat Emma at golf.
