Morning has Broken
Timestamp Sunday 11th - 08:30 HK Time.
Awoke this morning to a wonderful cityscape of HK, which was just as well because that's where we're staying. The sun is now coming through and it looks like being a hot one again, the heat over here is a bit stifling. Al did us proud last night and we had a great time at the Globe Bar. Despite England's attempts to spoil the party they just pulled through with a narrow win. John the Kiwi turned up after his mamouth journey to HK and although he remembered the bar where we were supposed to meet he'd forgotten the hotel we were staying at, no real surprise there if you know John. But he finally arrived at the Globe and the Magnificent 7 were complete. Al guided us through the nightlife of Lan Kwai Fong then we headed to his local pub, the White Stag in Wanchai, where we watched the 10pm (3pm) Premiership games. Lons took a photo of us in a LKF bar and e-mailed it to me to post on the blog. It hasn't arrived so no doubt some other poor sod is now the recipent of a blurred photo of a lot of drunken blokes in an unknown bar - hope it's not his missus.
Wandered around Wanchai and did some bars until I left the guys in the early hours and headed back to the hotel for some much needed sleep. I've already had a message from Hodge to say he's "taken the opportunity to discover his favourite place on earth" and is unlikely to see us before teatime today. The plan is to meet in Dickins, the hotel bar, at 5pm then Hodge is treating us to a birthday dinner at the American Restaurant in Wanchai.
Time now for a shower and a bit of breakfast then out exploring before it gets too hot. Not sure who might be around, Meister and Pete are the only candidates I think, don't imagine I'll see the others until 5pm. Must check on Don on my way out, make sure he's not making an ass of himself.
