Too bad this trip wasn't after June. I would have already moved to South Korea by then. Maybe next time.

W. W. CHAN& CO., LTD.

Unit B, 8/F., EntertainmentBuilding, 30 Queen's Road Central, Central, Hong Kong.

Hmmm... $300 and 8 hours round trip (Tokyo-Hong Kong-Tokyo). The only thing standing in my way is the wife.......

Oh well...It was a nice idea.... Catch you next time...:rolleyes2:

I'll be able to let you know if I'm in town shortly, just finalising details of my Easter trip back home. What's the plan at the W.W. Chan shop? Will you be going for a suit or is it just to walk around and have a look?

Wow! Unfortunately I'll be traveling that weekend (sigh) Have a nice trip.

dr.butcher:

Hope you can make it. Chan has a new shop so it's mostly looking around! Details still being worked.

Hi Andy,

Sorry for the slow reply, just letting you know I'll be in Hong Kong on that date and will be able to attend!

 

[Andy]

For Hong Kong we have several Forum members plus representative of MyTailor.com and Hiras. Should be fun!

No one in Shanghai???

 

[The Shabby Professor]

I'm not sure of my schedule quite yet, but I live quite near Osaka, so if you've got anything planned (late afternoon or evening), I'll do my best to make it.

[Andy]

Any suggestions for a bar or men's shop in Osaka where we could meet?

Hong Kong Change

How about meeting in the Lobby Lounge of the Hotel InterContinental

18 Salisbury Road
Hong Kong
Front Desk +852-2721-1211

The Lobby Lounge, with its impressive wall of windows showcasing a mesmerizing panorama of Victoria Harbour and Hong Kong Island, truly offers one of the world's most magnificent views.

Will that work? Saturday, April 11, 10:30 AM

Not really sure why you're heading to Busan instead of Seoul, but it's a bit far for me to head out for the day. If I can catch the KTX, it's only 3 hours, but if that's full, it takes around 5.

Andy,

The Intercontinental works fine.

I'll never get sick of the view of the Hong Kong skyline. If you haven't been to Hong Kong in a while, perhaps you should make it up to Ozone bar on the 110th floor of the Ritz-Carlton (must be one of the world's highest bars?). It has a truly amazing view.

Sounds like the perfect bar in which to get high! :beer: Looking forward to meeting you.

Andy,

A last-minute work engagement is taking me out of Hong Kong over Easter and I unfortunately won't be back till 12/4, so I can no longer attend the above-mentioned meet-up. Apologies for the short notice and I hope to meet you on another occasion.

I just left Hong Kong a couple of weeks ago, but will refer a colleague who is based there.

Word from Andy is that it was a great turnout!
Looking forward to pictures.

Great pictures! Thanks for sharing your experiences with us. Given all the time you have been spending on the "high seas" (or at least on the open waters) lately I think it only appropriate that we consider adding Commodore or perhaps Rear Admiral to your title? LOL.
