Seems we have a better class of resident living in Mo Tat Wan.
Reminds me of a Toilet sign I saw in Changsha, Hunan a few years ago - the english signage read - "PUBLIC STOOL"

For once, something palatable from you. The old Brown Mist would have been delighted. I bought a roll of toilet paper in TST that bore the slogan "Strong and Most Tenacious!"

Fire!! Look out!!

Another strange one, but not on Lamma this time - near the Fire Lookout behind Taipo kau Nature reserve. Since the sign is merely pointing the way to the Fire Lookout, are those exclamation marks really necessary??!!??!!

They were necessary to give you a reason to post it online, yeah?

Not from Lamma either, but the Murray Building (Govt offices). I made it out, though, without being attacked.

Can you tell us when your next performance in the Island Bar will be, Fortune? We promise we won't look.

At least it looks like they've got the revolutionary idea of combiing several signs on one post. It's absurd and ugly how there are three or four posts next to each other, each with one sign, in many places.

Several have been erected this afternoon, and the one by the first Power Station Road even has a map of Lamma with the trail highlighted.

Any high-res photo of the Lamma map?

Is it similar to the one outside the Central ferry pier?
