My God. Your houses are so wonderful. I cant buy any apartment in my city, Guangzhou now.

Billy, you have to find a woman that has a house.

Strange to hear of Guangzhou right now - I'm just about to start managing a contract for a ship that has been built there called the Maersk Belfast (it's Belfast not Baltic, but I keep writing Baltic even though I'm thinking Belfast - it's probably an age thing!). One of our directors was in Guangzhou at the end of September attending the naming ceremony. The ship delivers to the owners Maersk on 23 November, and then takes its first cargo of vegoils loading in Philippines and Indonesia for a voyage that ends up with cargo discharging in Italy (Ravenna and Genoa). Small world...

I didn't know Guangzhou is a port city. Thought it was inland where the three rivers meet.

Well, it is some way in from the coast, but up a reasonably navigable river, so the vessel could get out unladen, if not in laden. Maersk are building a series of 29,000 tons cargo size vessels at Guangzhou. Found a picture of the one that was launched before the Maersk Belfast

Crude, dirty or clean petroleum products, vegoils and easy chemicals!

And how do they clean this sucker between loads?

That's kinda how I got mine, found a woman who was good with money, but it wasn't really worth it.

Here are the pictures of the main house in Headley Park - hope you find them interesting. A bit of house history: The original house was destroyed by a fire in the late 19th century, and this one was built around 1905, and owned by Mappin (of Mappin and Webb, well known London jewellers). The architecture is therefore very much English Arts and Crafts movement.
