Popular Post GammaGlobulin Posted October 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 4, 2023 You have not lived Until you have done this... With your China Girl. How many here have made love on the rooftops of buildings in Hong Kong, before 1997, and before the British were kicked out.... Just asking. Ever been to the APPLE disco in Hong Kong, years ago? Any other interesting memories about HK before the commies marched in? Doing it on the rooftops of HK is pretty exciting. All those lights around and above you.... You know that someone is watching.... BUT.... Who cares! 2 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I'd much rather be doing it at night on a rooftop in HK. Or in a small boat in the HK harbor. Ever read James Clavel while floating in the South China Sea? 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YES! Correct. And I think you are thinking of Chungking Mansions. Plenty of great Indian food in that great monstrosity of a building. But the most interesting thing about that building is the film....CHUNGKING EXPRESS..... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chungking_Mansions 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel sorry for you. Everywhere is boring compared to everywhere years ago. Along with ageing and nostalgia, the world in general has also become less fun, less free and horribly left/right wing. And, no, the Brits weren’t booted out as you well know. Lease expired on surrounding territories. Despite your obvious disdain for the British, it was them being there that made Hong Kong such a fun, eclectic place, while your beloved China was in proper Orwellian mode. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not booted out, then why was Chris, Chancellor of U. Oxford, Crying? I never wished the British to leave. They should NOT have left. HK was ceded to England, where it should have remained, forever. And now, after the British have left Hong Kong... HK has turned into even more of an Animal Farm than it ever was. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HK could have been sustained, easily, for perpetuity, according to the original agreement. There was no need to leave. Maybe they were just too worried about potable water and vegetables from the Mainland. If only the British had had a bit of backbone, in 1997, we would still be there, today. What a mistake to leave. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
