Finding the best deals at ParknShop?

ParknShop's a beast, I'll give you that. Peak hours are a nightmare. My advice? Go early, like REALLY early. Think before 9 am on a weekday. You'll avoid the crowds and the lines will be manageable. Also, check their weekly flyers – they usually have them online and in store. Those things are gold for finding discounted items. And don't be afraid to venture into smaller, less central branches; they often have better deals and fewer people. Plus, explore the smaller local shops near your accommodation – sometimes you find better prices on specific things. Happy shopping!

Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.

Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
