Chinese Doodles

Upside down doodling while drinking beer

Whilst in my local and wonderful bar (188 bar, Wu Dong Lu, Shanghai) I drew some animals so that Cockney Vicky (from Sichuan Province) could learn the important animals in english and I could learn the important animals in mandarin. Just to add to the excitement I had already had a few beers and was drawing the animals upside down. (The colouring was done later after more beer, a vodka and a gin and tonic).

The bottom corner incidently is a tribute to possibly the weirdest student I have ever had and is the chinese for hungry…

The digestive system according to Tom. Meat goes in and carbon dioxide comes out (in his case probably as one of his extra loud burps)

Lessons

The beginning of another college year (and an obsession with young animals…)

Monday

I learnt today that I could draw caricatures.

Tuesday

I learnt that there is a Whitsunday Island off the coast of Australia

Wednesday

There is no name for a baby snail, but a baby turkey is a poult.

Thursday

Insects young can be called young (if the young look like mini adults), nymphs (if the insect has a gradual metamorphosis) , naiads (aquatic version of nymph) or larvae (for those animals that enjoy a pupal stage). Hemimetabolous is a gradual metamorphosis that nymphs have fun undergoing.

Friday

The final of the pro 40 competition this year will be a day night match.

Saturday

A new bar has opened in Toy Town, the Cosy Club. I had no idea one was opening there, it seemed to appear suddenly.

Sunday

Cow corner in cricket is named as it is unlikely the ball will be hit there, so cows can safely graze.

Animal Concert (Not a topical Limerick)

In the concert the cat sang meow,
To a beautiful Moo from the Cow,
The dog then did bark,
To the song of the lark,
And the oinking from Sally the Sow.
