all I want is a chair….
Hubby has not had any furniture in the apartment. At all. He resorted to borrowing a dining room chair from our landlady so he could sit at his desk. (The desk is built in, that’s why he has one). Anyway, it’s been pretty uncomfortable, and he’s really needed an office type chair. He had been looking, but not having any luck. You have to know what stores to go to, and what areas to head for in HKG when you are shopping. There is no Target, Walmart, Staples, etc. He got a lead for an area and headed out on the search. He was finally successful, but as is the norm in HKG, you can’t get things right away. You can’t throw it in the back of your van, you can’t carry it home on the subway, so you arrange to have it delivered. But they don’t deliver immediately. There are 7 million people in the city. You are not the only one wanting a delivery. 
They said it would be there Monday. Ok, great. Except he flies to Ningbo, China on Tuesday. HA HA HA HA HA HA!!
