Made the circuit last night. Kolwoon, Lan Kwai Fong, Wanchai……waking up this morning has been slow to say the least. This is my third attempt to get moving after my second shower of the morning. Back home tomorrow and I know I’ll be able to sleep there. Saw lots of

Qucik post here for I have still some shopping to do. Did my thing today and was up at 6:30 am this morning which is unheard of for me when I am in Hong Kong. Even ate breakfast. Busy till 3 this afternoon. Was going to go up to the

I don’t know what. However for the 3rd time in as many weeks I am back at Narita heading off to someplace else. S.O. is fit to be tied. Now mind you, I invited her to come along on this trip at my expense over 7 weeks ago, but her

Meant to post something serious tonight, but events and tiredness overcame me. So that will have to wait till the AM. ( After I work out, so no guarantees……). This last weekend was the Rugby Sevens, where I wish I had been. Madame Chiang, Expat at Large, and Shaky Kaiser

No babes this week, my wireless card does not seem to be working here for some reason. Sorry Mark! Wait till I get home. ( I could have used one last night!). Other musings / complaints. Why is it when I heard on TV that a Congressperson had been accused
