All about Hong Kong 7's 2013

The Hong Kong Rugby 7's is an annual event that is held in Hong Kong stadium as part of a world 7's tournament. It is held in Hong Kong stadium and draws huge crowds from abroad and within Hong Kong. It is a three day event lasting from Friday to Sunday.

It is truly a spectacle and something not to be missed if in Hong Kong while it's on (Not the you could miss it with all the advertisement). I myself will be attending (with pictures to follow).

The Hong Kong stadium is a short walk from 'Causway bay station' and is very well signed. Walking directions from the station are as follows.
Causeway Bay Station
Hong Kong
1. Head west on Hennessy Rd towardPercival St
150 m
2. Turn left onto Percival St
260 m
3. Turn left onto Leighton Rd
180 m
4. Turn right onto Caroline Hill Rd
450 m
5. Sharp right onto Stadium Path
230 m
Hong Kong Stadium
Stadium 55 Hospital Road So Kon Po,,
Central, Hong Kong
The stadium is split up into four wings including the infamous 'South stand' , this stand is especially lively as everyone in the stand is dressed up in some form of costume from North Korean leaders to the Teletubbies. 2 hours queues for this stand are to be expected. 

In progress...

The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

So I'm back. Hopefully I'll keep this going this time. Since my exams last year it's been a bit crazy during the summer I really couldn't be bothered to blog let alone do much and this first term in sixth form has been a bit of a shock to the system.
Long story short since my last visit to the Apple store I now am the proud owner of a Macbook pro retina and have also since done a couple minor upgrades to my desktop and aquired a nexus 7 (More blog entries about such topics to follow). So my aim is to keep this going and hopefully people are actally reading it (Although I don't mind writing to myself feel free to comment!) or at least I hope that the google website  trawlers find this interesting :D

Cheers
