HK/China GTG June/July 2011

Hi Everyone,
I'll be arriving in HK on the 30th June 2011 and will be based just north of Shenzhen in China, departing HK on the 6th July 2011.
Anyone up for a GTG at that time? All suggestions welcome.
I'm easy, early and ready.

Actually - I am now based in Zhongshan. Let's see how many people we get for Hong Kong first as it would be nice to get a group of us together and go window shopping as well.

Cheers,

Eric

A HK/China GTG would be something to behold. If there is one, it will be worth while to participate, even if it means to fly over there.

Thanks for the link Eric
Might be worthwhile to check it out, it's a 45 minute drive from the hotel.

Rob, I don't drive in China, I'm not that crazy, I leave it to the experts.
Drinking and smoking in the back is more comfortable.

Eric (inspires) - thanks for the PM and advising. June is a little far away for me to plan, but do let me know the details and nearer to the date I can confirm.

Cheers...Bryan
