  1. im pretty certain on that Cathy shot the old airport can still be seen directly across the  image .. scary and wonderfull at the same time when coming in to land. .. 

    How a massive accident was avoided is a miracle to this day... i do miss the old airport..if no traffic you could get there in a jiffy . I spent a lot of time in HK and loved it

    Hong Kong is giving away 500,000 airline tickets in an effort to woo tourists back to the region. The city has rolled back COVID travel restrictions in recent months including mandatory isolation on arrival. It has just announced travel to mainland China will be seamless from next week.

  3. 80,000 free flights to Hong Kong its seems.... giving then away through " lucky draws " with Cathay it seems

    Chances are quite high it seems of getting a freddy ( free)... i was going to go a few weeks back when i was in BKK but neverwent due to the covid test which change evry day...

    It seems the rules are relaxed but i would not want to catch it there , a Police State if there ever was one since the commies took over

    I'm not convinced, TC.

    Music to one side for a moment.. i think there is going to be a big legal fight on that anyway soon...ill post later when i find my FT Weekend which had an article on this point. 

    AI was probably the reason we all have a decent vaccine so quick... if Humans had to weed out all the possible duds we would still be waiting.

    Thanks Quinn.. i put that in as an input as i was reading a book by Robert Hughes about Cubism etc and had no idea the image existed.... still a fantastic work of modern art i think. ( i have got the end yet so maybe the artwork is in there...im no expert , just love this period)

    From what i understood it was supposed to syntheize a new art work. Thats the idea ,, which in fact it does most of the time, i only played with it last night but im sure it has its uses 

    I used it to give an idea to a friend who developes Divers Watches. 

    As far as AI is concerned the genie is out the bottle and its nots going back in..

    who created these Ladyboy paintings... no one.. check out the latest AI software ... the new version will write songs at will. The newspaper article you are reading probably wasnt even written by a human

    Just type in anything and the software generates it from a mish mash of zillions of images and so on...and this is just the beginning. The issue is who own what?

    Is Cindy's an indoor bar (like Check-In), or an outdoor bar? More clearly: would it be possible to enjoy the same "privacy" as at CIB?

    Its like Check in Bar and Chilli Bar hybrid.. some of the waitress are ex Chilli..... i think this will get more popular as more staff arrive. I think they "have loom upstair" for the privacy but i had to leave BKK early and fly back so did not get chance to go back to see Kaka( i think) .. its a nice place. Cindy is a nice person as most old timers here know and ill be back .. not quite as raunchy as CIB but give it time . The bar sits on it own from memory at the end of a side soi

    . She also informed me that DC10 was closed (I checked it twice, and while the lights were on there were no customers and no staff inside. She said some of the lbs in DC10 had a fight/major disagreement with the Nana Plaza owners and it was closed - probably now for sale/rent.
     

    DC10 is open ...same old .. same old...no change here. Just need some fresh staff. its been open for 4 weeks now but i think the DC part of the sign has fell off so it may read "10 Bar" A Ship without a  Captain...thats what it seems like. Even TT Chang didnt know but he props the bar up in Obsessions now permanently( He is the official  LB ATM tip machine),

    Check in Bar is easily the best now by a long shot as it was 3 years ago( now that Chlli Bar has gone)...anyway ill see what Soi Cowboy has tonight .
