Just got this email with great news from HK Magazine:

"Dear Lamma-Gung,

<center>Congratulations!

HK Magazine's readers have chosen
Lamma
as
Coolest Outlying Island

in the HK Magazine Readers’ Choice Awards 2010. [/b]</center>

I hope you are all well. I email with exciting news--Lamma has won an award in our Readers' Choice Awards! We're also doing a special "awards" issue of HK this week, so keep an eye out for a copy of HK, out next Friday.

Also, Lamma was judged runner-up in the categories "best place to take tourists" (behind The Peak) and "best Hong Kong hideaway" (behind Sai Kung)."
<HR>
More details about these awards will follow soon, in the Lamma-zine next week...

Great! That means more tourists coming over at the weekend. I know it’s good for local businesses and all that, but when you can’t even get on the ferry to come home when you want to and can’t get about in the village for the throngs of mindless tourists, it drives me bonkers…

By the way, here's the HK Magazine cover page I was referring to in my published quote above, plus the Lamma-zine story I wrote about it (click below):

Our little party (the "Mooching Rabble" as the HK Mag Deputy Editor called us in jest) picked up the award plaque last night at a fun party at Hyde in Lyndhurst Terrace. 2 District Councilors, 1 Official Court Senior Correspondent, Lamma-Por and Yours Truly. The HKKF General Manager pulled out, but has (finally!) agreed to a Lamma-zine interview.

I was representing Lamma with my full-colour, one-off "Peace, Love, Lamma - DickStock XV - Flying Pig" T-shirt, to counterbalance the two suits in our group.

This plaque will go into Lammadonna's office, a public place where anybody can enter during office hours and view the plaque. Makes more sense than being in my "secret hideaway" Lamma-zine home office, I think.

Lammadonna *might* make a poster or banner from it and display it on Main Street and/or inside the ferry pier as she was soooo happy about the award for her home island she grew up on.
