Thanks HB. The one thing I am NOT looking forward to are the 13 hour flights from Chicago <where we connect going to and coming back from> to Beijing and returning from Shanghai.

Just in case you forgot the rest of the words Rab.....
SLOW BOAT TO CHINA

WORDS LYRICS by Frank Loesser 1948

I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China
All to myself alone

Get you and keep you
In my arms ever more
Leave all your lovers
Weepin' on a far away shore

Out on the briny
With the moon big and shiny
Melting your heart of stone
Honey I'd love to get you
On a slow boat to China
All by myself alone

Thats OK Botty .....I am always looking to broaden my musical horizons and appreciate the experience of an older rank passing on his wisdom.

Knowing your passion for being factually correct may I suggest that the words Scottish Constabulary in your location be replaced with the title L&B Police . There is enough Tar being brushed about in the real world without it being spread in here...I thank you in anticipation and invite you to join me in this little tune.....

Great post HB. Original, authentic, and if I may say so the first time I believe you have said anything noteworthy.....
