Sorry, Russian Lamma residents, you can't invade Lamma Island!
I declared it a republic 10 years ago with these special T-shirts.
If you try, I will fight you on the beaches etc..
T-shirt picture to be attached shortly

We'll see what the Lamma Taliban thinks about that.

Watch out for anyone wearing a bulky vest.

nousername is correct. Here's the proof he submitted to this public forum, a T-shirt. I've got this in my extensive collection of Lamma T-shirts, so it was actually a real product quite a few years ago, I can vouch for it.

That is all the proof we require for his claim, methinks! I'll inform the usurpers of the Lamma Republic claim, so (hopefully) peaceful negotiations can start, otherwise we might experience some local upheavals in the coming months, potentially more intense than the expected Occupy Central confrontations.

Firearms are thankfully frowned upon in all of HK, but nousername and his friends are Martial Arts experts, so the outcome of this dispute over the competing Lamma Republic claims would not be a foregone conclusion at all.

Anton, over to you for an official reply or rebuke...

You guys can't declaire the People's Republic of Lamma. It's already claimed by the Republic of Caseyland, by virture of me living on the Island. so nahhhhhhhh! And building a rock garden. So that little piece of the garden, was annex from Chow Clans (in reality it still belongs to them. I believe Gung Gung Chow (the uncle, and not the nephew (Millionare Rich Chow), but since the yard was fallow, and I gurilliar gardened it, and had a Gurilia revolutionary gardening). I declaire it one of the spritual and Zion (a magical holy land inhabited by Mormons and Hebrew refugees escaping the Pharol). By the grace of God, the garden is a Caseylander homeworld. and by virture all of Lamma belongs to Caseyland. And first decree of Caseyland everybody don't have to pay taxes and rent...., and thus the illegal fraudlent voted govenor Big Ears, is deposed. Viva La Gardening Revolucion.

Muahahahahahaahahahahaha.

The Latin inscription should be "fumus herbae"

but on a more serious note. I wish I knew you special Lamma characters in person. I only know Lamma Gung, Tavis, and Nick the book man, and there was this older fellow who used to sit all the time on the benches near the peer. I invited him to dinner once at one of the Lamma eateries. I didn't get his name... But I was known on the Island as fat boy. I wish I met this "Dan the Bastard" when he spray painted the orginal "Lamma Island is Crezy". I think I met Bobsy, I tried to volunteer for his tree planting but he didn't get back to me. :_C.
