Look what I found in one of those public leaflet distribution points along Main Street:
an A5-sized, staple bound booklet from a recent primary school field trip to exotic, quaint, backward Yung Shue Wan Village.
The questionnaire - to be filled in by the children - tells so much about the perception of our home by other Hongkongers. Some of the questions:<OL><LI>Which community services can you find on Lamma Island (it was filled in with "Post office, Power plant, HSBC").
<LI>The homes on Lamma Island differ from the ones we live in. Make a list of 3 similarities and differences that you can see.
<LI>There are not many roads on Lamma Island, so people travel on different types of transport. What are they? And why are they different?
<LI>Can you hear any wildlife? ... Count how many different wildlife sounds you can hear.
<LI>If you lived on Lamma what difficulties might you find?
<LI>Which community would you prefer to live, Lamma or where you live now? Why?
<LI>Find a good example of a rural community scene and draw it here.</OL>I'd love to see some of the answers from the children.
How would Lammaites answer some of the same questions?

Kind of a short answer for that one.

Isn't question 1 something along the lines of what Ted Thomas was suggesting he would be doing in China with the money he apparently nicked from Claire Holingsworth? He said he was starting a 'teaching english in China for free' scheme funded by slipping in the name of a (HSBC) bank sponsor randomly here and there in each question.

Its a great questionnaire for I guess 7 year olds? I'd love to see the results of question 6.

dodgy dude, i had a runin with ted. how did he nick claires money ????
