Day 234 July 1st 2007, Shopping and Celebrations - Hong Kong to UK



Going back to the UK for a couple of weeks had given me the opportunity to line up a couple of job interviews, only problem is that my wardrobe consists solely of sweat encrusted shorts and t shirts. Not quite the outfit for a tech sales guy. Where better to be than Hong Kong to buy a suit.

Right I need socks, shoes, belt, suit, shirt and a tie and I need it now, apparently tailoring takes a couple of days but Shelley, a bit more with it than me today, got the deal closed and the suit ready by 7PM. Just in time to watch the 10th Anniversary of UK handover to China fireworks. Quite spectacular, during the day the main street in Hong Kong was filled with protesters against Chinese rule, this however didn't seem to affect the number of locals watching the fireworks.





Dashing back to the airport, I still haven't got my bearings, we boarded our night flight back to the UK

Highlights: Efficient shopping and Chinese Fireworks
