On whether Nathan Rd/TST/Kowloon is worth the effort - it most certainly is. For one thing, you get the view back across to the island from TST. No that it is much effort - you can be ther in ten minutes from Central by subway.

You could call in at the Amoury in the Pedder Building in Central. Walk down to the Star Ferry terminal. Ferry across to TST. In the big shopping centre sort fo to the left of the wharf (Habour Terminal Centre?) you will find the Muji store - worth a look. Not far from here is the very modest arcade which houses Lee Baron and Zees. If you walk a few blocks up Nathan Rd, away from the water, there is a small shopping centre on the right with a very big Uniqlo store on the top floor (and a few other interesting shops as well).

Have a great trip.

Speaking of awards nights. What do we think of Aaron Paul's brown dinner suit?


I think Noel Coward, or someone from that era (?), used to wear one.

Nothing to say about Paul's suit, but I did like his acceptance speech.

He does a tremendous job playing Jesse Pinkman. That he beat Giancarlo Esposito is a big call, but he's a talented young actor with, hopefully, a great career ahead. Breaking Bad represent!

In HK , down around the Arts Centre and Space Centre, aside from having great exhibitions, around the back (I think it is) you can catch a big bunch of local COS players kids dressed up in all sorts of stuff and hanging out and posing. Great fun. Warning: NOT SAFE FOR BLAHMAN (Click to show)
Once before we went my mate rang up and got a hard to book table outside on The PEAK at night. When we arrived it was shrouded in fog so much we could not see The Peak restaurant from the cable car / tourist centre. It was so cold outside we had to ask for an inside table and wait for it while we froze. Visibility was about 3 metres.

Cheung Chau Island, by ferry, is a great way to spend a day,walking and looking at temples or whatever, and eat seafood by the harbour. No cars on island. Even the ambulance and fire truck are tiny electric vehicles.

Was Skinny Pete of Breaking Bad anywhere to be seen...

Wrong size or not your style? Is the colour in the photo true to life?

Heya Journeyman - really appreciate you taking the time to take me through some of your highlights here.  Very much appreciated, thanks.

Dunno. Maybe he got jacked by a man named Spooge?

Will follow these leads up also.  Knew you would have something off the beaten track to highlight FXH, thank you appreciate this.  Am soo looking forward to a week of just hanging out and taking it all in for once.  Am trying to detach myself from phones, ipads and notebooks for the week.  So am 'handwriting' all these suggestions into my diary.  A novel experience for some.

Thanks Selv....again, can always relay on you to provide some great insight.  Thanks heaps

 

 

Not this kindred tweaker....

Two HC ties picked up in Jason's sale... green spots and navy check. Great value

 

Damn man, gotta put a spoiler on that image. Some people might be eating at their desks..

Great looking ties Romp!

EDIT: I'd be all over the Henry Carter sale if I wore ties to work. I wish I had to, in some ways..

Apparently some clothes of mine were delivered to the wrong address today. Now I have to meet some crazy sounding Asian guy at some restaurant to pick them up.

My anus is not prepared.
