Would anyone like a dim sim - freshly cooked?
Looks like lichen to me! At last!
So yes please I'd lichen dim sum thank you.
HAHA, you've woken in fine form today Caroline! The first image was just for you - greens are healthier, thought you'd lichen sum :)
Are those people ashes? No. Can't be. Really, are they?
They say they were cookers for Asiatic food but isn't that what the pot was for? I think this is where they burnt contaminated clothes and/or bodies but there is no record for the public about that ... They ARE built to the right length!
I bet they were people cookers! Oh and the top picture looks like a dog. Woof-Woof!
a-HA!
oops, no-one is here.
I bet they were too! That top image is a stone behind where the ashes were shovelled out from the back. I can't read Chinese ...
WHAAAAA why did you jump like THAT!?!
i like the sphinx's.
You are seeing things that aren't there Space Unit 6!
OKAY! I’ll paste this answer under the correct post also …
The OPEN KITCHEN was built adjacent Asiatic dormitories c1900. Extremely basic brick building open at either end with a chimney in the center. Rice boilers were included in 1925. It was a rare example of a kitchen specifically designed for Asiatics. However … the building was converted to use as incinerators around 1950 – infilling all but one fireplace! That explains the ‘Warren’ incinerators!!
