Chinese Funeral Strippers outlawed.

Why is it somedays I struggle to think of anything to write about and others...

China has decided to ban the practice of striptease sendoffs at funerals. Apparently in China large crowds are seen as a sign of honour so the events are held to boost the attendance.

Good heavens. Thank goodness that tradition hasn't caught on in the Ukraine. It's still very much your traditional chanting, keening and incense wafting. Otherwise the extremely long ceremony might have passed somewhat quicker

PS. Thank you for the shout out. I'll be back at the top of the pack before you know it if I keep up this regime x
