[QUOTE=FreebieFan;1295645]This time stayed in Hyatt, much quieter and better.[/QUOTE]I'm a big fan of the TST Hyatt. I stay the most of the time now. I collect Hyatt points and it's priced right for work. I stayed at the langham last time because th Hyatt was too pricey. Nice hotel.
[QUOTE=NicFrenchy; 1295708]My experience with the Ladies in HK was none-existant since there was no lady I fancied.
The most annoying part of HK was the indians, every 5 metres asking if I wanted a handbag, a watch or a suit. At least, In Thailand, the Annoying Thai guys on Sukhumvit are trying to sell you a Happy hour in a massage parlour![/QUOTE]You stayed on the wrong side of HK. Don't have this issue on HK Island.

If you are visiting other company (ies) , check to see if those company (ies) have contract rates with hotels. The discounts can be significant at even deluxe hotels.

If you have the cojones to make a booking under the IBM / HP / Motorola / WesternDigital / Sony / etc corp rate it will most certainly be better than most Agoda type rates. Oh and the TST Hyatt doesn't ask for company I'd LOL. Even if they do, tell them your business cards are in your suitcase and you will provide them later etcetc.
Ok back to the sex!
[QUOTE=Chantik; 1295679]My head has stopped spinning.
Like the Sheraton but hate Nathan Road as I get chased by the guys. Don't feel safe there.[/QUOTE]I still think men get the rawer side of the bargain. You have no idea how many indians live in HK. And they all try to sell copy watches and tailored suits to cacasians on Nathan Road!
[QUOTE=FreebieFan;1292959]No typo. Got to get with the lingo programme. Fcupid stands for Filipina Cupid, a dating website. Not to be confused with FHeart. So far so good? Ok now we move up a level to PLove followed by DIA. Which is nothing like DOA LOL.[/QUOTE]Thanks for that. RTFF didn't help. I just arrived in HK, and having figured out DIA, I have been working on a F-DH. Planning on seeing her tomorrow so we'll see how it goes!
I am staying at TST and trying to figure out the best approach to get laid tonight after escaping from my co-workers.

As an example the JW marriot and all the other hotels in that complex are around $300 / night inclusive of Internet and breakfast. But, I visit a client on the TST side often, so it is easier to stay and use the corporate rates on the Hyatt, for the points, or any of the other American chains. It just happened the Langham had a great rate that time, so I wanted to try it.
The one thing I don't like so much is that you need to take 2 elevators to your room, so double walk of shame. But, I don't think about it as much as I am thinking about were my dick is about to go.

[QUOTE=Boarer;1295714]"You have a lucky face"[/QUOTE]Those guys come up to me once in a while. Once I was curious so I just went along with the game. He asked me some very basic questions and I answered. Then after a while he pulled a piece of paper out of his pocket and it had my answers written on it. He had not been writing while asking me questions and had nothing in his hands before. I know there must be some trick like with all magicians, but does anyone know how the hell they do this?
After that, he was able to correctly state a very specific fact concerning my personal history. It was the kind of thing that can't be guessed, and you wouldn't mention unless you knew about it, and I certainly never mentioned it to him. Again, how the fuck did he do that?
Then he asked me for a donation and said the options were the poor man's donation of $500, the middle-class man's donation of $1000 or the rich man's donation of $1500. I said,"nice trick, I'm impressed, here's the non-sucker's donation of $100." I probably overpaid.
[QUOTE=FreebieFan;1295968]Even if they do, tell them your business cards are in your suitcase and you will provide them later etcetc.[/QUOTE]If you're going to cheat, then better do it all the way. Go on google, type "IBM Business card" and you will be directed somewhere where you can see a Business card from IBM: [url]http://www.edbrill.com/ebrill/edbrill.nsf/dx/my-office-is-moving-and-i-dont-care[/url]
Then move to Chinatown or such and get the same card, made with your name on it. And Voila.

[QUOTE=FreebieFan; 1295968]Some hotels will ask for company I'd's at check in, If you have the cojones
Ok back to the sex![/QUOTE]Sure there are some Frank Abagnales out there with the cojones. Look forward to the next installment of your 1001 tales (Or how I got 1001 tails).

Decided to drop into Escape for a drink.
Watched Asian / Middle East men being charged an entry fee and surprisingly 5 Filipina's (not dressed as typical W / L's) asked to produce I'd. Showed passports and weren't allowed to enter. Looks like it is tough for some girls on tourist visa's to enter bars.
And if staff overhear a business transaction. They may ask the lady / gent to talk outside.
Actually Escape was quiet. Lots of South american ladies.
Think everyone must be well behaved in Wanchai!
