Hawo evewy one.
Finally managed to work out this gadget. Tried to set up a blog but failed. Rach can you send to family, Ade to 'the guys', Avril to the team and Fee, you can have this all to yourself.
Just settling in to the world famous Young Fee restaurant - sorry Yung Kee, and their world famous goose.
My goodness. what a place Hong Kong is. by the way Heathrow is definitely the worst big airport I've been to, but also I arrived at HK for the world 'standing in a line waiting' competition. Man, they like to get people in line here.
Normally quite cool about this sort of thing but just spent a million hours next to boozed up ashtray smelling guy with a posh accent. Still I did manage a manly grunt before ignoring him the whole trip. Not easy and had to grunt another couple of times to climb over him for a wee.
Anyway, here now. Bit of a cock up on the transfer from the airport - like the planned one wasn't there. Oh and the hotel weren't expecting me. never mind got an up graded room.
Yes I did try to up grade the flight seat but apparently my ticket is noh upgwadabal.
Today I've been on a boat trip round Kowloon Bay. The whole place is so busy and so steeped in history it seems to be oozing out of the drains and exhaust fumes of capitalist hubris. Got to see it to believe it.
Chop sticks working well, no problem, seem to be blending in to the locals no trouble. Seriously and obviously most people are Chinese but also pretty cosmopolitan, and funny hearing people talking in Cantonese interspersed with broken English. It's difficult to appreciate the influence of the British here. Everything is in English. Odd fusion of fashion which is a fashion of its own I suppose. Hardly chic though, despite all the brand named shops.
The cantonese goose is here so bye for now.
Not sure why its world famous. Not worth writing home about. oh I just have. I suppose its meant to have those bits of broken bone in. and a beer last night was 73HK$ (£10).
Lovely being here. Hope the transfer comes on time tomorrow
