Who Said Houses Had To Be Round Anyway?
... I wasn't offered one, I very much doubt that its safety value would outweigh looking quite that much of a tit. I had been aware that the Chinese liked to smoke and I had seen a much larger proportion of smokers from Hong Kong onwards, but the people here just made them all look like lightweights.
