    Any reason why you didn`t use Oasis?
    Our flight (One way) is next week and we will stay in HK for about 24 hours..
    I need a new digital camera(Samsung NV10/11) and was told I might get it cheaper there.

    it be a pitty to waste the trip ;o)

    i remember a few years ago a story in a newspaper that a english guy in his 20's was chatting to an american sinlge young lady, after a while chatting online, he went to the states to meet her for a couple of weeks, when he landed at the airtport his first shock was she was in her 70's !!!, so he thought he better go to her home, as he didnt want to waste the trip, so he stayed at her place, and one day opened the freezer, only to find a body in the freezer, it was her dead husband who died of a heart attack, and it turned out she kept him in the fridge, and didnt tell the police, as she wanted to keep claiming his pension !!! so when you get there check the freezer :o)

    Good luck Tom - I am VERY happy for you.

    BTW - why didn't you book through Expedia as I do? £488 return Manila via Hong Kong with Cathay Pacific.
