TIME OUT HONG KONG

First thing I do when visiting London (after scoffing down a big fry up and having a few pints of course) is to pick up a copy of the latest Time Out magazine. It's usually a good read and can point you in the right direction for interesting stuff to see and/or do.

So I was pleased to hear Time Out launched a Hong Kong edition recently. I'm impressed that someone would have the balls to launch an English language magazine in a city that is rapidly reverting to it's native tongue (not English, by the way). Guess there are enough foreigners living here and visiting to make it worthwhile.

Saw a copy at the supermarket today and parted with HK$18 to have a look. Turns out to be a very good read - nicely laid out. Hope they can keep the standard up. Especially liked the interview with Ben Elton inside the back cover. Thumbs up for Time Out Hong Kong
