Celebrity teachings

Parents of Hong Kong students seem obsessed with getting their children the best education. Influenced by the surroundings of course, HK as an international finance hub offers great reward to those with a high IQ. And so teachers that boast a high exam success rate come in strong demand.

Celebrity tutors can make a boatload from marketing themselves. Splashing yourself on billboards, buses and trams or posters seems to pay kindly for these new found celebs.

Check these pics out,

Meet Michael G, economics teacher & by the look of things one pretty cool muthafucker. Running with the familiar 'CHANGE' motto you could strap a guitar to this guys back & he wouldnt look out of play playing a gig down your local.

This is Joe Chan, looks mean doesn't he? Don't let that stern stare put you off, his economical knowledge is the shit.

This years Clockenflap festival is just around the corner! Headliners this year include Blood Red Shoes (of 'say something, say anything' fame), Los Campesinos & a DJ set from Alexis Taylor of Hotchip.

The quality of bands HK is attracting is slowly rising with Placebo & British Sea Power both playing recently. Hopefully a sign of things to come.

Waffle on

These things are amazing.....

Toasted waffle with melted peanut butter inside

well worth joining a que for.

Tit for tat

Dont get me wrong i love the Kong. But sometimes wondering around this place can make your head spin. 7 million+ people all crammed into a phone box provides little personal space and the amount of shit that fills the streets becomes hard to take in. Time to retreat to the country.....

Claiming back the streets

So were into October. And with the humidity levels dropping (slowly but surely) your finally safe to go outsude again without dehydrating. God bless the winter.

First it was National Day, & then Autum festival. Cue BBQ's, flying lanterns, candle burning & the odd firework or two.

This is one addictive game

Apparently burning candles is an offence. Dont get burned.
