Thanks for the information regarding St Christopher's Home. Pictures here are of the then Anglican Bishop of HK - Gilbert Baker - unveiling the plaque which is below. in July 1969.

Hope it is still there!

Given the money involved when the home was sold perhaps the family might have been better advised to hold on to the land!

Sirmio

I found this in Cat Street last week, among a pile of old photos.

It's one of those tiny thumbnail photos, appx 4 x 2.5cm, and I nearly threw it down as a photo from someone's trip to Europe. But

great shot of the relatively new ferry pier. note the old style benches (and lack of greenery) - you can still find these near the central peak tram station/squash centre. 80s Kid
