Lamma-Gung has been asking about pirates and ghosts. Being Friday the 13th and all that. But the only pirate I knew was Chris Knox -- of Waterfront Bar fame -- who eventually left Lamma Island far richer than when he arrived.

Hong Kong is full of people who've left Lamma richer than when they arrived.
I know several personally.

Alan, the reason you are still there is simple.

"Hong kong is full of people who have left........"

I now live in Phuket, which is full of people who haven't arrived, either rich or poor.

Actually, it's because I'm married and have a kid.

What happens to those who end up with no money on Lamma? Begging in the main street or what?

I won the mark 6 and blew it all on whores, drugs and booze but did I have a hell of a time! Oh yeah and some of it was nicked off the 7.20 ferry.
