Recently I was on vacation. I went to Shanghai for a kendo tournament and then on to Japan for some rand r outside of China.

While in Shanghai I fought this guy. We won but only because my attack was crap. Next time I'll be lucky. I will post a video later when I figure how to get it from tape to memory. When I came back to China my teacher, Mr. Mure Dickie of the FT newspaper had his last day. Unfortunately I broke my toe during warmup and was unable to spar with him. He will be missed here in Beijing as he was an old hand.
