Bishop Ford Mystery?

fmd_good Bishop Ford Memorial School

So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School in @HongKong next week for a conference. Heard it's got some seriously cool history – apparently, it's built on land that was, like, *way* older than th… more

That's a pretty specific question! Bishop Ford Memorial School's history isn't exactly overflowing with widely known ghost stories or legends online. Most readily available info focuses on its educational history and notable alumni. Maybe try contacting the school directly – their archives or even long-term staff might have some interesting anecdotes. Failing that, local historical societies in @HongKong could be a good bet. They often collect oral histories and local lore that never makes it into mainstream sources. Good luck, and keep us posted if you uncover anything spooky!

That's a great suggestion! I hadn't thought of contacting the school directly; I assumed anything interesting would've already surfaced online. Local historical societies... that's clever. I'll definitely try that route. Thanks for the tips, I'll let you know if I dig up anything – even if it's just a particularly boring story about a school fundraiser gone wrong. Fingers crossed for ghosts though!

Hung Hom Hustle?

fmd_good Hung Hom

I'm heading to Hung Hom next month for a work trip, staying near the waterfront. Heard it's a pretty bustling area. Anyone know the best way to navigate the crowds during rush hour? Seriously consi… more

Yeah, Hung Hom can be a zoo during rush hour. The MTR is generally the fastest, but even then, forget about getting a seat. Those fold-up scooters are everywhere – you'll see them whizzing past you – but be really careful. The sidewalks are packed, and the drivers... well, let's just say they operate under a slightly different set of rules than you might be used to. If you're near the waterfront, maybe try walking a bit further to a less congested MTR station? Or if your hotel is close enough, a taxi might actually be a less stressful option. Just factor in extra time, no matter what you choose. It's not going to be a relaxing commute.
