Street Furniture: Yellow Bollards

Ten minutes from where I live bright yellow bollards have been added to the street furniture. All-in-all 24 bollards on this side of the crossroads in a new district that didn't even exist when I arrived here over three years ago.

At the new cinema that just opened here I watched the censored version of Skyfall. It truly was a great Bond film from start to finish.

Having said that, are two scenes that are cut for Chinese audiences the first one is, I hear, when the security guard gets shot in the skyscraper in Shanghai and the beginning of the conversation with the prostitute at the Macau casino. There is no age rating system for films here all films have to be suitable for family viewing.

The audience was not too large possibly because it costs more to watch a foreign film. There was one scene that got a noticeable WOW form the audience and that was when Bond opened the garage to reveal a gleaming Aston Martin DB5. looking forward to Daniel Craig's next Bond appearance.
