Should this image be linked to the World of Suzie Wong club on Tonnochy Road, or does it need its own place?

Thank you Phil. It's a bit tricky, the night club at Tonnochy Road is "World of Suzie Wong", while this one at Hankow Road is "World of Suzie Wong Nightclub". I've corrected the post.

Back in the 1960s, there were a number of establishments that had jumped on the "Playboy" and "Suzie Wong" bandwagon and branded themselves with similar sounding names. Thus, the confusion in later decades in uncovering if there was a tangible connection between them.
