At the entrance to my palatial estate there is a small security hut. There are 5 guards that I see on regular basis, but you know they all look the same to me apart from one. And do you know why?  because he has a smile on his face and he says hello to you, even me the foreigner.

The rest of them are a miserable bunch of soor faced bastards. They look like your typical communist party members,  with their wee uniforms and fake looking badges that make them look very important indeed and maybe all they’re doing is playing the role of the uniform.  Maybe when they take the uniform off they just become the hen pecked little man of the house.  And when you see just how fired up some of these Chinese ladies become I’m not surprised that they make the most of the uniform. 

The weather is becoming colder by the day but the other night it really did get chilly.  In fact I went out today and bought some thermals. Anyway getting back to our wee guys.  The office door was closed but you could see the red glow coming from the Hut through the fog inside, no doubt the heater was on full.As  I got closer I noticed that there was 3 guys inside puffing on their  ciggies and sucking on them like their lives depended on each draw, but as a bonus they were also getting all that second hand smoke. I wanted to stop and just look in as if I was at the zoo so I could watch these animals in their wee cage. I find them fascinating and like any creatures or things that fascinate me, I like to watch ☺☺ Mind you I was glad that the happy wee security guard was not in with them as I’ve always thought he looked a bit smarter than the average bear.
