Consider yourself lucky that nobody flamed you yet. The summer camps only start in 6 months time. Then you do a simple Google search and you will come across a lot of ads.

The previous non-starter of a non-answering notwithholding, if you send me a PM I will put you in touch with an agency in Beijing that is one of the organizers of summer camps in China.

Kind regards from this side of the Pond,

"Set up some" kinda of vague isn�t it?
Is it organizing a "summer camp" or getting "some j.o.b" in China for the summer?

There are thousands of summer camps in China; hundreds of them are advertised on the web...


HunanForeignGuy, get over it?

HFG, you wanna cross swords? "If you see me buddy, you better step aside. A lot of men didn't and a lot of men died" Quote from a song which title I forgot. Maybe the over 70's, r&c, can help.

I believe that's "Sixteen Tonnes by" (among others) Tennessee Ernie Ford.

But I could be wrong (I could be....RIGHT!) (and that's from "Rise" by PIL).

From "Sixteen Tons" made famous by Tennessee Ernie Ford. "If you see me comin', better step aside. A lot of men didn't and a lot of men died. One fist of iron, the other of steel, if the right one don't get you then the left one will....."

My dad loved that song. Thanks for all the replies. HFG, you got my gist though? Shall we continue this lyric thing? I find it quite interesting.

Open a thread off-topic, if you like. We'll need some rules, though, like no sneaking off to sites like www.sing365.com to find that elusive line...

Actually, since T. Ernie Ford was an American, it's "Sixteen TONS" Laughing

Humph.

As Dr. Johnson said to someone who pointed out an error to him: "You, young man, are destined for the gates of hell!"

No cheating, honest! I like to teach it to my older students, fun song, easy lyrics.

Louras- is that what you meant by keeping the lyrics thing going. If not here is a new one for you.
