China accepts my driving licence so why shouldn't Utah?

Yep , that's two answers from guys in this hemisphere.
Now all we need is an answer from some one who actually knows

Well, I asked someone who does know, he told me, now I'm telling you......what was the question again?

I'm wondering if this means Headgash is in China

Not disparaging the Rev's driving skills - it's the nature of the laws in the two provinces I was addressing.

Actually I am currently in the other hemisphere. Back in your hemisphere on Monday Colonel.

Found and signed a lease on our new office here in the worryingly named World Trade Center. Looking at apartments today and scoping out electric scooters... Colonel: brand advice?

I know it is crazy to ride a scooter in China, the drivers don't just not look for them  they simply ignore them when they see them there and drive right in front of them. They may parp the horn when behind them but that give me the irates more than feel safer. I just want to go from office to home to site and back again. The site is 15 acres itself so a bit of walking to do especially when it is over 30degrees Celsius for most of the year then it snows in winter.

We drove north to the Yangste river yesterday to speak about a project on a massive island in the middle of it in Yangzhou. That is one big river even very far inland...

Yes, you do. You get a one level kick up if you've run at a salt venue before....don't quote me on that......
I'll try to remember to ask a grown up this weekend.  :-P Wayno

Don't buy anything Chinese!
No , but really, I don't know much about electric scooters, and my advice would be to walk or drive.

Quick highjack:

Graham, for the heck of it I searched online for "car theft capital of Australia" -- and keep seeing Sydney listed.  Maybe the information is dated, though -- it appears to be at lest ten-fifteen years old.  How do I find if Preston really is the capital?

hahahah....he has the high Priest of hot-bits living right across the road with her Royal High-Ness the Queen of crack-doom.....

Her Nissan Micra appeared to change color overnight..... his plates migrate from car to car....

It mightent be the Capital , but it's the centre of business..... :cheers:

Perhaps the capitol has more cars stolen per capita, but they can raise more capital in Sydney with these stolen cars?

Capiche?

Slim
I have this huge shopping center (mall) near my place which has been in the past linked to the high rate of car theft around here.
However, I might have to change the "car theft capitol thing", because although I haven't moved , it has.
Although it seems that the car theft capitol of my state , Victoria, is now, Sunshine.

Any thoughts Goggles?

Of the two times I have caught a train to Sunshine, the first time I saw a bashing at the station the second a pushbike being stolen. Better put an extra lock on that garage doctor, the tank might make a good getaway car if someone was thinking of stealing something from a very flat place...
