The Hodge Blog

Join the eponymous Hodge and his bunch of fiftysomething mates on a laughter and alcohol fuelled trip to Hong Kong to celebrate his 50th Birthday. Chart their progress through the planning stages, the gruelling flight from the UK, first impressions of HK, success, or failure, at Happy Valley Races and the casinos of Macau, and the special treat that awaits the Birthday Boy. A certain amount of poetic licence may be employed by the authors, so don’t believe everything you read!

Introducing Don

With arrangements now in place I’m finally able to introduce you to an extra member of our party, Don (or Don the Donkey to give him his full name). Meister has dragged himself away from his butterfly collection and been down to Brighton beach to negotiate a pass for Don to join us in Hong Kong. Lons has been tapping up his underworld contacts in Liverpool and has come up with the industrial-strength laxatives we’ve been searching for. The final piece of the jigsaw was 100ft of strong rope with which to attach Hodge and our supplies for the Birthday Treat are complete.

Alan’s local knowledge will be invaluable in deciding which particular part of Hong Kong’s Main Street we send this delightful tableaux marauding down. There is still some debate over whether the recipient of the laxatives should be Hodge or Don, or indeed both.

 Clearly we are hoping that Hodge will see this as a ridiculous diversionary tactic to distract him from what we really have planned - don’t you just love double bluffs!
