HK Bomb Scare

Not aviation directly but security for sure...

Areas of Causeway Bay sealed off this afternoon (SOGO) with rumors of bomb threat.

Best,

Retread7,

Are you aware that Fragrant Harbour relates to Hong Kong?

Maybe you could start a Baghdad thread if you like..."sandy desert" perhaps...?

As to the red wine situation...LOL (and a hearty one at that)!!!!

Cheers BB


Best,
