    I've ordered two books from Amazon UK since arriving in Kunming. Neither arrived. Went to the post office but they were no help whatsoever. I had no problem getting books delivered when I lived in Beijing. Perhaps Kunming has not fully 开放

    Two or three little shops and stalls around the Bird and Flower market have French presses of various sizes starting at around 30 kuai a piece. Look at the end near to the Macdonalds.

    A more interesting question might be why have clubs in Kundu have started refusing entry to foreigners. Is it a wave of xenophobia or just a perception that foreigners don't spend enough on overpriced warm beer?

    Gets my vote every time. Welcoming owners who try hard, treat their staff well and put something back into the community they live in. A friendly crowd around the bar, the beer is always cold and the food good. What more can you ask for?
