The view from the Peak early 70's Hong Kong (1)

Wan Chai reclamation finished, but no buildings there. The cross harbour tunnel entrance seems to be not finished, so I think the date is 1970.

On the extreme right is 22 Barker Road .

Wandering Shoe Repairer-Beacon Hill-1972.

1972

Wandering shoe repairers were still around in the early 1970s. One used to appear in front of our apartment block at Beacon Hill regularly at weekends and seemed to be kept busy.

He announced his presence with loud calls that echoed around the buildings. I cannot recall how he transported all his work gear. As we were at the top of the hill it must have been a struggle.
