I've just arrived in Hong Kong and i'll be here for 2 years. I'm here alone and i guess i never considered how i would actually meet people! There don't seem to be many single expats at work and i'm not the sort of person who likes to sit around at home having a 'quiet night in'. Any suggestions..................or any volunteers??

Tuesday quiz nights at Bulldog's regularly sees a group of HKxp'ers turn up; just ask for the Buddha Bellies table and introduce yourself. Kick off is 8:30pm but a few people generally turn up earlier.
Bulldog's is in Lan Kwai Fong (Central).
G/F 17 Lan Kwai Fong
Central, Hong Kong
Tel: (852) 2523 3528

Otherwise, there's usually a call-out here on the site for random lunches or Friday evening drinks, so keep checking back. Oh, and welcome to HK.

Strange weblink you posted there lola!
http://www.bulldogsbarandgrill.com is their homepage.
I'll be there on Tuesday along with some of the regulars I'm sure (normally from a few minutes before 8pm to get the first drink in Happy Hour). We must be about due not to win by now though.

Lottie,
If you are good at identifying actors or movies from small stills then you will be invaluable - that's where we come unstuck normally. We sit at the last table on the left before the red traditional UK phonebox, or just ask the staff for the "Buddha Bellies" (that's our team name, although having one isn't compulsory).
