Alleyway

Nice evening in the hutongs of Gulou, saying 'goodbye' to a colleague, Olivia, who's returning to Scotland to get married to a Frenchman... except we are here under false pretences: she's coming back! Anyway, a fine meal under a balmy evening sky in Dali Courtyard followed by drinks  in a tiny bar called Amalil, halfway down a 1.5m wide alleyway, and run by a guy from Inner Mongolia and his cats.
