Not wanting to put a downer on your night but has anybody here actully eaten REAL Chinese food?
There must be some that toured China. How much weight did you lose on that trip?
Real Chinese food is fucking horrible. Everything they serve us is a lie and only the rich Chinese ever see it .
Have a lovely evening .

So food that is cooked by the Chinese, in China using Chinese ingredients and served in a Chinese restaurant on fine bone china in China isn't real Chinese food?

So Champagne isn't real French wine as it isn't drunk by the majority of French people as they can't afford it?

Well I'll be a Chinaman! (who eats Chinese food, cooked by Chinese people served on fine china in a Chinese restaurant in China Town)

Interesting! Damon has agreed to take a photo of me wearing his City shirt and he will be honoured for me to post it on here.

However, only if the pose is like this one:

Daisy, your grasp of English spelling and grammar is excellent. I can see from your spelling of the word 'honoured' that you must correspond with people in the UK regularly (as opposed to the US), or maybe work for an English company? The obligatory comma after the word 'however' is something that even born and bred English people can't seem to get to grips with. I see you have been to the UK on holiday, but there must be more to it than that?

I work for a very prestigious British organisation that have a number of establishments in Asia including Beijing. I have studied English for over twenty years and can write quite accurately most of the time but I do have occasional lapses and still use a spell checker on a regular basis. As a force of habit I also go over my posts prior to submitting for mistakes. The most difficult thing for a native Chinese speaker is to lose the accent but many people ask why should you even try?

I have noticed by the way a heavy cynicism directed towards me for some reason and people making assumptions about me such as a lack of interest in football. I don't think I ever said I had no interest in City, obviously I haven't invested as much time and effort as most on here but I am as excited as anyone about the coming weekend. My boyfriend wanted to join initially but he feels his English isn't good enough and is a little shy to post. Judging by some of the things posted towards me on here I'm glad he didn't join.

Do you have any idea why people should be so sceptical?

probably because you're real name is Dave and you work as a refuse collector in Slough and in you're spare time you like to troll internet forums on a laptop you stole from an elderly neighbour. (probably)

Probably because they - some of them - are paranoid about United fans coming on here incognito and trolling, which in turn is due to their massive inferiority complex.

I think what Daisy has been subjected to on here, particularly in the other thread, is disgusting and, speaking as an Englishman, thoroughly embarrassing. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

I'm looking forward to seeing that photo Daisy...

I only joined this board recently and just did a search of China to see if there was any interesting posts that I could contribute to.

I wish I hadn't looked now as some of the quotes on this thread and the 'new fans' thread make me feel uncomfortable and almost unwelcome.

I am the epitome of everything that true blues from Manchester don't want to see supporting their club. I can't even claim to have been interested in Man City in the days of Sun Jihai as I was too young. It is thanks to my boyfriend that I became interested, he has been a fan for a long time I think and even plays in a City kit for his team:

I don't understand why people can't embrace cultural differences and I have been to England (see below) so I have seen both sides and I also know lots of English people here in China that love the culture, the people and especially the food!

Yes you are the epitome of everything that true blues from Manchester don't want to see supporting their club. They aren't used to pretty girls supporting City, only ogling scantily clad ladies. I think a photo of you in just that City shirt should satisfy everyone.

And remember - it's not racist when they do it, because it's a joke.

I'll try and get a picture of me in Damon's shirt but depends what he says.

Could you be so kind as to get some pictures of you in Damon's pants Daisy? You'll make me very happy ;)

Pleeeeease let it stay.

As long as you look after it and it doesn't make a mess on the forum floor, you can keep it, for now.
 
Apparently Zhang means 'to open up,to spread' in Chinese.
I'm not sure I fancy Daisy spreading,as I fancy keeping my lunch down.
