    3. Hello Folk, I have a sign in Chinese on an old photo. Can anyone translate it into English? The sign is halfway down the webpage on www.eyemead.com/Mark.htm and entitled "Chinese Camp" An old friend of mine from Wirksworth, Derbyshire is near his end and has always wondered what the sign in Chinese says when he took the photo in Africa in 1971 Hopefully, John Palmer Author of Wirksworth website www.wirksworth.org.uk
