Re: [Wikimania-l] Free, mostly unused Octopus card
by Alan C Y Lai 12 Aug '13

12 Aug '13

Dear Raul, There are shops that accept the Octopus card at the airport, and if you're travelling to the airport in early morning, you can also get a refund from the MTR Customer Service Counter in the morning as the first train leaves the airport around 0600 so the counters will be opened by then. Best regards, Alan Lai Sent on the road Raul Veede <raul.veede(a)gmail.com> wrote: >_______________________________________________ >Wikimania-l mailing list >Wikimania-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org >https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimania-l

Free, mostly unused Octopus card
by Raul Veede 12 Aug '13

12 Aug '13

Does anybody want one? I could leave it at my hotel's reception (Ramada Kowloon, two blocks from the University). There's no point to throw it away, but I will leave tomorrow by transfer so early there won't even be a chance to get the deposit back. Really, if someone walk to enjoy the cool metro for some more days, it could be useful. Raul

Beware of annoying journalists at the beach party...
by Deryck Chan 12 Aug '13

12 Aug '13

CCTV has given the local team unreasonable demands for thr beach party tonight. Since they have a history of disobeying organizers' instructions this week, please beware if they attempt to do the following at the beach party... 1. Take pictures of people with "no photos" badges 2. Insist people follow their photo-taking instructions. They requested that people line up in a W formation to celebrate Jimbo's birthday. Please be alert that if this happens, it is not an instruction from the organisers and may be ignored. Kris, our party manager who's been pestered by CCTV for over a month, suggested that I send you all this email. This is a reminder that the beach party is a Wikimania party; feel free to enjoy yourselves at the expense of annoying journalists. They are joining our party, not we joining theirs :)
