School's toilet travails

A Hangzhou primary school with 740 students and teachers has only one male and one female toilet and at peak times up to 200 people must wait in line, Qianjiang Evening News reported. Pupils said they try to avoid breaks between classes and even drink less water to prevent the need of going to the bathroom.

The school head said the campus has no space to build new toilets. Plans are being considered to either build corridors linking the second, third, and fourth floors of two teaching buildings, and install toilets in the corridors, or build toilets within the teaching buildings. The schemes are being reviewed by local property managers and the education bureau.

Gunshot misery for residents

Residents of a newly-built neighborhood in Zhengzhou, capital of Henan province, have been angered by the falling remains of clay targets and lead shot from a neighboring shooting range.

They are irritated by the noise of gun fire all day, together with the lead shot from sports guns and slippery floors in their compound caused by debris from the shooting range, according to Henan Business News.

The range, merely 40 meters from their compound, has been run by the Shooting Sports Administration Center since 1958 and is home to two world champion shooters as well as other prize-winning marksmen.

A protective net failed to catch all the small size remains of targets and shot. A high wall was also planned but proved impractical because the targets and shot in Skeet Pairs or trap shooting go high in the sky.

Not the best of chat-up lines

A 34-year-old man in Shaowu, Fujian province, might have found a girlfriend had he not said something unpleasant to a young woman he had met on a blind date, www.chinanews.com reported.

The man treated the woman to a meal and they had a good talk as they dined. Impressed with each other, they decided to take a walk together but just as they were about to leave the restaurant, the man told the woman she was not suitable because his family had only one son in three generations.

The woman asked how he knew she would not be able to give birth to a son and he replied: "My mother said a woman with big hips is most likely to give birth to a son. But yours are not big and I guess you could not have a son".

The woman slapped the man's face and having never been beaten by a woman he pushed her down on the ground and wrestled with her until police arrived.
