摘要

On my way to Australia for the main part of my fellowship, I thought I would make use of the obligatory stop-over and actually leave the airport. Very sensibly, I sent my pregnant wife and daughter on ahead to spend time with the in-laws in Australia, so I had a week to myself in Hong Kong. I was very fortunate to be able to visit Professor Wei's unit (Figure 1) in the Queen Mary Hospital, University of Hong Kong, as well as to see the sights of this amazing city. I used the reciprocal club arrangements of The Royal Society of Medicine to stay in the Hong Kong Academy of Medicine, and also visited the Foreign Correspondents' Club, which is housed in one of the few remaining colonial buildings in central Hong Kong. This proved to be a most interesting prelude to my main fellowship secondment.
