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!

Man Work’s Down the Chip Shop …

Well it’s been a week or so since the travellers returned from their sabbatical so I thought I would drop a few more items into the Blog and could not do so without providing some evidence that Elvis really is alive and kicking (well shallow breathing at least) in the White Stag in Wanchai. This guy is clearly dehydrating and in serious need of a drink!

The more observant of you might also notice David Bailey in the background - a little more rotund than I remember him but still clicking.

The disinterested lounger is of course the great 'Hodge' doing his best not to 'get on down' and join Elvis in a duet. Interesting that Elvis actually did a duet with Hodges called 'I Will Be Home Again' - bet he felt a right Charlie!

The following examples demonstrate quite clearly that, for some of the cheery chums, enjoying a well earned break from the office also involves concentrating on the job in hand (well at least the one we can publish pictures of):

These guy's really do take their responsibilities as fathers and husbands seriously don't they - never a quiet moment to yourselves even when on drinking duty on the other side of the globe!

Mind you, the following might rate as interesting diversions for the less encumbered of visitors to Hong Kong - those with somewhat fewer domestic responsibilities:

More to come from the Meister soon!
