I have a DJI Mavic Pro drone since 2019 and rarely have flown it. It was flown once in 2020, 27 August at 1440 for 10 minutes. In late 2019 I registered the drone and myself with the CAA. This is the page where you can register, you need to…

I tend to walk this hike when I need exercise. The walk to Mui Wo is approximately 5.2 miles, so slightly shorter and involves a Taxi or Bus ride back. The advantage is that you can eat in the Kitchen. Therefor to save time, I generally walk to the top…

Short hike with Connor to Discovery Bay with pictures en-route. First pictures from my apartment in Tung Chung, before taking the bus to Mui Wo. Beach area on approach to Discovery Bay is full of plastic and discarded domestic products.

Joined a walk with 9 others on the Wilson Trail, called the Twin Peaks. The highlight of the trail was 970 upwards upwards on the First Peek. The conclusion was a meal in Stanley and a visit to the Hong Kong Cricket Club followed by a Mexican in SoHo.
Update: 14 November 2020 Unfortunately, I have not been able to get back to the UK and the car has had no use for nearly a year. The car has done a total of 14,200 miles and hardly any in the last year. MOT HISTORY. November 2020 – 14,200 –…

Second hike over to Discovery Bay over Tigers Head this week; 7.5 miles. This time with Jan Rutten and strangely enough we hiked slower than I did before, two days earlier.
Wednesday, 21st October 2020 will be seared in the minds of all those who worked for Cathay Dragon, as this was the day it ceased to exist. I knew it as Dragonair and I feel the pain for my ex-colleges. There are questions that need answering, such as what happens…
Was invited to a Hash Run on Peng Chau by Marcel Van Houten and Jamie Day. Just shy of 4 miles and then a quick refreshment and food afterwards. Excellent day out and probably the longest I have run in years.
Yet another hike to Mui Wo from Tung Chung, Lantau, with Marcel and Pipi. Never appreciated there was the large waterfall before. Clearly, being managed in the past to collect water for local distribution.
Decided, this will be our every day driver. It’s a brilliant small car, ideal in these times for parking in busy cities, unfortunately its not a hybrid or electric, but sill very efficient. Developed directly from world rally activity with Tommi Mäkinen Racing. It reminds a little of the 6R4 I had,…
Out of window today, looks like the break water for the reclaimed land is being constructed. Although it’s difficult to know as the trucks seem to deposit dirt, and then the next week collect it and move it somewhere else. More pictures here.
After visiting the UK from Hong Kong, I have now returned to HK for work, but before I can do any work, I have to spend two weeks isolated in my own apartment to ensure I am free of COVID-19. I travelled 4 weeks ago and Hong Kong airport was…
Collected the Nomad from the factory on Wednesday. Was an absolute glorious day for collection, arguably too hot, however this soon changed to rain later. Really impressed with the factory and the hand over from Henry. He was very meticulous and witty at the same time. Fortunately, Andrew my son…
I don’t take my camera every day on walks. This one I did and you will see how clear the Hong Kong skies are without the factories working. Sad to see the beach in Mui Wo shut down and enlightening to see the huge spiders spinning their webs.
Hike to Mui Wo on the 21st June 2020 in pictures.
2 August 2020: Nomad is now complete, except for the exhaust guard. Will be collected any day now. COVID-19 as we know has affected many. One such item is the Ariel Nomad I ordered over 2 years ago. Well fantastic to report it’s now in production and I anticipate delivery…
