The western media just can't get enough of Thames Town. A few months ago, we headed out there hoping that we would get some fish and chips, but after walking about all we saw were couples getting married amid the backdrop of merry old England. There was a mention of a "grocery store" in Thames Town in the report—last time we went there, we indeed found a grocery store, you know, the one called Lawson's—but maybe there have been some changes since the first (and last) time we went there, several months ago.

From Caddy's email to us:

Are we the the only ones who immediately think of Wee Britain from Arrested Development (more info here) when we watch this CNN piece on British-themed Shanghai housing development "Thames Town"? (Once on the CNN site, you need to click on the link that says "A bit of Britain outside of Shanghai" to watch the video.)
