Pricks in Pics

Hope you all enjoy this latest offering of special photos. By the way, it takes us about 2 hours to get all these photos up here and it takes you about 30 seconds to write a comment at the bottom. Please give us some love. We're lonely. Thommo and Moof: you guys are close to our hearts. Cheers, Melon

Shanghai's Bund. Behind these two bums are the old British style buildings which show Shanghai's past......

Possibly the greatest photo I've ever taken

old town Shnanghai.JPG

Old Town Shanghai. Feels quite traditional except for the quiet offers of 'Sex', 'DVD' and 'Sexy massage'

Nanjing Rd. Home to bright lights, quality Chinese cuisine and Sexy Massages. Often all at the same venue.

morts at FC.JPG

The Forbidden City: Amazing place. Most emperors at this place had no less than 1000 concubines to choose from at any one time

It's amazing what a few weeks in a communist country can do to a man. This guy led a bunch of tanks into Tiananmen square immediately after this photo was taken

Hall of People.JPG

It's impossible not to make a face like that when you're standing in front of a building such as the 'Great Hall of the People'

We went to see the wall at a place called Samatai. It had 70 degree inclines at some points. We call it 'the Great Wall Workout'

Hengel and the world.JPG

Hengel checking out for Gengis and his band of Dirty Mongolians

That is a quality view. 5000 Culture points (you have the right to review this Morton)

Getting down from the Great Wall is a lot faster than getting up

Quality work boys, some of our best yet. Made it to Madrid, unsurprisingly washed, but Madrid is bloody awesome. You´ve gotta come one day. The Kerr man will be in town in 5 hours and we are going to a 25000 person colloseum tonight for a bullfight. I will be supporting the bull but feel the odds may be against me. But after all the lobbies that went down in China due to us who am I to comment on animal rights.

Hot damn they are sweet pics!

Shanghai is obviously so completely different to other places - not as many totally pumped up dogs for instance. It's ok though, Hengel and DEMON thanks a bunch for sending through those pics, I will definitely put them to good use, perhaps some time on Monday? I'm pumped already.

That photo of the dude snoozing is without a doubt the single greatest photo of all time.

Why didn't we get a photo of the giant crocodile mile down the side of the wall?

I'm with you Thommo, crocodile mile on the wall, and plenty of soap so you go faster.
