Feb 28:  Leaflet for all VV Drivers

Police handed out this leaflet to all VV drivers a few weeks ago, just a reminder of the Govt. regulations. I got it from one of the many friendly, law-abiding VV drivers. Check out the various Lamma Facebook groups for heated discussions...

The leaflet basically just reiterates the very basic Govt. regulations for VV drivers:

18 years old, driving license, no passengers and no stuff sticking out at the side or back of the VV, so no rebar dragging noisily along the path and carrying oversized, unsecured furniture...

$2,000 fine and 3 months in jail maximum, theoretically speaking. Lamma has as many VVs as Cheung Chau, with a fraction of the population.

Feb 24:  Just Another Lamma Weekend

All these events are happening today and tomorrow in North Lamma alone. A rural fishing village on an Outlying Island, a cultural desert? No way!

No supermarkets and Fast Food of any kind, no cars or any public transport, no cinemas, but lots of cultural events that expect you to PARTICIPATE, not just to watch passively. Enjoy!

More Lamma events happening soon...

Lunar New Year with my HK-Chinese family: 3 step-children, 2 husbands, and 3 step-grandsons, all together at Dim Sum lunch. They all just LOVE Lai Sees from their Ah-Por and their Fai-Lo Gung-Gung.

Feb 16:  Kung Hei Fat Choi!

Kung Hei Fat Choi (Cantonese) and Gong Xi Fa Cai (Mandarin) to all our readers!

Here's my little home-made greeting card,
re-purposing my digital Valentine's Day card,
re-purposing my new Facebook Profile picture,
re-purposing one of my Lamma Rounds from the recent exhibition @ Lamma Art Collective,
re-purposing my photo of an orange hibiscus blooming in my Balcony Jungle.

Is it high time to create some new digital graphics instead of just repurposing and adapting my old ones? Yes, definitely.

Feb 14:  Ready in Blue for CNY!

Chinese New Year, time to clean your home/house thoroughly, inside AND outside! We've never seen the famous Blue House in Pak Kok New Village in its full splendour after white lines appeared all over the fading outside walls a few years back.

The new owners wanted to be ready for CNY, so the workmen got busy just these last few days. It just looks so dangerous just to watch them painting, our hearts skipped a few beats.

Larger photos, plus a few more pictures from my Blue House before/after series...
