the garden slug

Mandy slug returned to her homeland, Hong Kong and set up a cute lil’ dessert shop with her cousins, Wylie & Ken. As you can see, Ken is a somewhat camera-shy, hehe. Wylie’s a researcher at the Kadoori farm in Hongkong, so she spends her days with plants and animals. I think that’s why they named the shop “Lok-kei ( or Lui4 ji4 for you hanyupinyin fans) Dessert Forest”.. Cool bananas!

 

 

The forest folks operate 7 days a week from 2pm till late. Give them a buzz at (852)69795156 – you dont need the 852 prefix if you’re dialing from a HK public phone..  Say Hi to Mandy slug ( and give her a bear hug) when you pop by Hong Kong ok?

 

I was like a child in a candy store.. Couldnt decide which movies to watch so I ended up watching a bunch of them, and frankly, they were all good. I like movies which are quirky and slow, so the flicks I picked were quite up my alley. For some reason, I just can’t bring myself to watch war movies, I just can’t quite stomach them. I can sit through gore and all kinds of human depravity but war just doesnt go down too well with me.

The HKIFF is THE most important film financing platform in Asia, so there were lots of famous faces hawking their wares to the buyers from big film houses. These are some of the folks I saw in HKIFF. I was all of 15 metres away from Li Kang-Sheng. * unbelievable!
