It seems there a couple of members to this forum based in Hong Kong.
Would it be an idea to get together for Happy Hour ?
Who currently lives in HK ?
I’m free!
I would definitely prefer a Friday night. Maybe our man Jack could let us know when he;s about?

Can I be a virtual attendee? To get in the spirit I’ll sit here in my shrimp fishing enterprise in a fur coat speaking in an annoyingly high-pitched nasal Canto whine (as a Kiwi, it won’t take much work ) and drinking lots of … beer (insert H.K. beer).
Cheers. Word of warning: don’t try “retaking” the colony after you get pissed up - the PLA is not known for its sense of humor. Likewise, don’t buy - whilst stocking up in the nearest Wellcome - a bag of flour and force some homeless coolie to smoke it; opium den performance art is frowned upon.
Have fun drunkards.
I propose we take turns reading chunks of the Odyssey to an empty chair in your honour! We’d certainly fill a glass for you. But please, no Canto whining!

I’m still trying to organize a horse racing junket.

I would like to make a joke about Hong Kong’s Happy Valley and vaginas but I’m either too stupid or too pissed (or both).

Sounds good. I’ve always found that I’ve had the best response from my invisible friends.
Anyway, I’ll be passing through Hong Kong next year and expecting to rope-a-dope together a few die-hards for a big one. Put your L-word (i.e. liver) into training.

You can blow a wad in Happy Valley.
I haven’t been to Macau since they built the new casinos. The last time I went, I did the Hong Kong track on Saturday night and then the Macau one on Sunday afternoon. Then I played the slots a little, but I kept hearing geese hissing at me. So strange.
:raspberry: Oh, now you have a happy hour; now that I’m safely trapped on the wrong side of the border.
