Thank god you finally published these.

I was getting told I had a shoe fetish, even after swearing that – “they were for someone else, honest”.

Now you’ve published, I can be exonerated.

PS No mention of my Fridge Magnets, only IT, bleh.. cough http://www.iwantone.cn cough.

My Way is one of the small mostly unknown bars down here, it only holds about 8-10 people. Always a good place to go and enjoy a drink or two, as it’s not filled with laowai’s and it has a nice small pub type atmosphere…

I am not in Xiamen, Mark. After I get back from Hong Kong I might be going down there for a couple of days though.

What is My Way? A bar full of Frank memorabilia?

Zicca – are you in Xiamen? Or a lost soul that follows shoe soles and the boot cars that they are trying to unite with? Okay – if that sounds bad – I blame the wine.

If you’re in our area we would love to meet up with you at My Way for a drink…

I’ve seen that shoe-van a couple of times in Xiamen. On Gulangyu Island there is a piano school and sometimes when they’re doing a promotion for the school they have a flatbed truck drive around Xiamen with a bunch of people hammering away on pianos.

I DO NOT HAVE A SHOE FETISH! (I have two)

It’s just one boot van – it would be even cooler if the had a pair of them. My wife thinks that it’s always been there, it’s in front of a place that all us laowai’s know only as “The Shoe Store” as it is the only place in Xiamen that most of us can find anything in our size. It’s a huge place – two stories of shoe goodness, if Shoe Fetishist Swiss went in there with some feet for modelling I’m sure that he could walk away will well over a year of material….

Love it! Those boot vans are hysterical. Are they some kind of fancy shoe repair outfit?

Also,what is with the stiletto cigarette stubber?

Eric, I think you send your info to the CIA – you have more of a lead than they have had for months.

While I am here, I want to shout out to Lawrence and Eric – they have always given great tech advice, even to an idiot woman like me. Cheers guys!
