Blogs : DaqingDevil Posted a new blog Summer Discovery - Longfeng, China

The weather has been real Aussie BBQ type days although the humidity is not to my liking. In winter the weather can best be described as dry, humidity wise, so you don’t get that sweaty body from wearing too many clothes. Summer? Well with the Daqing area being part of a huge wetland system I suppose ...

I will tell you about the last lesson of Happy English I taught a year ago to a group of students aged from 9 to 11. The subject was ‘Sport’ and I was tempted to load up an Australian Rules Football game and just let them sit and enjoy but eventually thought better of it and prepared a lesson a little ...

Around China : DaqingDevil commented on news Woman Claims Her Dog Was “Raped”; Claims 100,000 RMB

As I understand the law - if it was done "doggy style" there is no offence. That's consensual sex. However, if he had that bitch on her back and her pant(s) pant(s)down, that's definitely forced sex. The police should check the public cameras before they discard this case and perhaps be a little more dogged in their ... Full Comment>>

Great story. Must be a lot of detail in there that is worth sharing at some stage.

With family back in Canada it must be hard for you at times. Full Comment>>
