Forums > Food & Drink > Bread in Kunming

Not to familiar with the Kunming bread situation anymore because I simply make my own bread, but as far as I know “good bread”, that is bread without a sweet flavour like all Chinese breads, is available at Igor’s bakery and it is sold as well at Salvadors/Mimosa.

The Wicker Basket shops as well sell a rather bland but not sweet loaf of bread.

A friend of mine gets quite good results himself with a bread making machine, like me, he buys his ingredients on line.

I don’t know about German bread but pumpernickel style bread is available online of the Jason brand which is not bad and at least not sweet.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Many Condo complexes (小区) are giving Covid testing

Well this might as well be the last post on this forum topic because there are no longer mass testings. All the testing sites I know have closed down.

I had my last test on Sunday thus three days ago and still not have received the result. Funny thing is that was the first test I actually had to pay for and my first individual test. As well the only one that might have been positive. I probably will never know.

Many people reporting flu like symptoms and some coming up with Covid positive test results from home rapid tests. Looks like Omicron is spreading freely through Kunming.

Anyway, the days of mass and combined testing are over.

And looking forward to the time when passinger trains will go to Vientiane as well. Much more interesting then touring "The Big Shopping Centre In the North" (=Lijiang).

They did. Mandalay in Myanmar is on the other side of the Hump.

They never really flew over the Himalayas. The routes were over the Gaoligong Shan and Nu mountains which climb up to the real Himalaya's.
They should have flown from Dinyan in India. Even Mandalay was not part of the Hump route either. That should be Myitkyina. But their route seems to be dictated by where they still can find AVGAS (Hight octane aviation fuel).

The men at China Defence Supplies (In Washington) had asked Walt Disney studio to design a unit emblem. A Dragon was the obvious choice. David Corcoran suggested a tiger instead, and that met with general agreement. The request went to Hollywood and in October two Disney employees- Rot Williams and Henry Potter- sketched a darling Bengal cat with wasplike wings and extended claws, leaping from a V-for-Victory sign.

From Daniel Ford; Flying Tigers, Claire Chennault and his American volunteers, 1941-1942.

@Geezer.

You are quoting somebody who states at her own website:
"Siemens is a German company that was nearly bankrupt until Hitler generously supplied free slave labor and money for technological development." Which is partly true but using this as an argument to proof you are right can only be done by conspiracy theorist.

Rose Koire maybe not a right wing conspiracy nut but a conspiracy nut none the less.
The lady is desperately trying to convince others that she is not. Please trust me; I am a feminist, gay anti war person. Even started a group called democrats against UN agenda 21. Rather pathetic.
Geezer is probably reading Agenda 21 by Glenn Beck.
