You have to be quick to keep up with the social trends round Liuzhou. The locals take up new hobbies and pastimes almost every week. After the 'falling down holes' and 'setting things on fire' crazes of recent months, they have a new one.

I am informed that a large Liuzhou building supplies market was burned down yesterday (Tuesday) morning. Around 600 square metres of the market was destroyed and it took 16 fire engines and crews two hours to bring the fire under control.

Fire!

I was staggering home the other evening, laden down by the spoils I had gathered from the local supermarket when I suddenly noticed that my eyesight was fading. Everything became misty and out of focus.
