After all the serious and sometimes depressing discussions recently, let's start a new game, our own online Quiz Night!

Email me a picture of a place on Lamma, I'll put it up and people need to guess where it is!
Let's restrict it to publicly accessible places in the Yung Shue Wan area for now for simplicity.
Anybody sponsoring prizes?

Let's start with a quick & simple one: Where on Lamma?

I'll make a wild guess - the beer garden directly across Island Bar?

You seem to know it so well, Samson!

Did you spend many a drunken hour there, lying flat on your back on the benches, staring at the foliage canopy above, head throbbing before finally passing out?

Is it really beer garden? Wah... I only guessed it by the colour scheme (red wooden fence and yellow railing across)! Cool

But nah... I'd shamefully never been to Island Bar, but the walk to Tai Peng everyday have the same "head throbbing before passing out" effect! Laughing

As for the 2nd pic. I fuilly agree with Beanburglar!

Correct again, these were too easy...

Good & snappy come-back, Samson!

OK, smartypants, let's increase the difficulty level gradually...

Frank lives in a tree house? He's always so neatly & formally dressed, hard to believe...

Frank has a tree house in the corner of his garden, and a high fence similar to that one. Down near Hung Shin Yeh

There must be quite a few Franks around? Are we talking about this one?
He looks like he might live in a tree house...



If yes, you're right!

He'll probably strangle me for showing this picture! But it was taken in public, albeit quite a while ago... WHEN, Mr Beanburglar?

Next picture in our very fast-moving guessing game Where on Lamma?

Correctomundo!
Dr Pauline Franks, Miss Lamma & the newly self-appointed Official Gravity Pocket Researcher of the Lamma-zine!

Yes, the old door of the Waterfront Bar, which is making nice progress now, finally getting windows installed.
No more easy bar-related pictures for all you barflies out there!

Here's another one. Easy as well?

Correct again! Darn!

All correct at the first try! You've got quite an amazing visual memory, Mister! Way superior to my own...
It must come in very handy in your life...

One more and then we get into the really tricky ones, like close-ups:

Correct!
Rumoured to have been rented by somebody opening a restaurant in there...

Now let's try something a bit more challenging:
