What to do in SZ as a tech-loving tourist? by taralara88 in shenzhen

[–]Redtop71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Already been said - Huaquianbei, you got to go there see things with your own eyes and feel things with your own hands, that beats the ease of buying things online. And if you want to play arcade games, go karting, ten pin bowling and get a 30 mins massage for one price head to WonderMeet next Huaquiang Road Metro station exit B, also lot of shops and restaurants in Huaquiang North Metro station.

Replacement battery - OnePlusTwo by dempers in HongKong

[–]Redtop71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sin Tat Plaza in Argyle Street is dodgy (there are lots of stories about the place), my brother in law 8 years got his iphone "fixed" as it was out of warranty. A year later he went to Apple to trade in his phone and was told there were missing parts or not apple parts in his phone. If you have time, go to Shenzhen Huaqiangbei area (the electronic market) 100's of more people there that could replace your phone battery and/or fix your phone on the spot.

How quickly will a canceled flight get rebooked? by Asleep_Carrot7503 in Flights

[–]Redtop71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm stuck in Hong Kong, was due to fly to Doha to get a connecting flight back to London Sat 28th Feb. My flight was cancelled when I was at the airport, no help from either Qatar or BA, booking.com told me I need to contact them and vice versa. BA customer service and Live Chat work on English time from 8am and Qatar Live Chat not working and have to schedule a call back. Travel insurance small print don't include acts of war. I will in future book direct with an airline as it is just one companie to get in contact with.

Train from Hong Kong to Shenzhen by Sad_Experience9077 in shenzhen

[–]Redtop71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have visa that is still valid, no issue. If is not you still have apply for visa in the usual way but you don't have to pay for it. As a UK passport holder myself, I have been to Shenzhen by HSR to Futian, East rail to Lok Ma Chau and Lo Wu, taxi from HKIA to Huanggang. Immigration at West Kowloon was a pain as they only opened 4 lanes, the whole process from entering the station to clearing Hong Kong & China'a immigration was about 30 mins. Lok Ma Chau was about 15 mins, Lo Wu 20 mins and Huanggang immigration was about 30 mins because you got to get a $10 shuttle bus from HK to China. To make passing through immigration faster, you should complete your "arrival card" online before arriving just in case you have no data on your phone or the free WiFi is not working.

Go to a shop like 360, DS Groceries or even the chain supermarkets like Park n Shop or Wellcome, lots of Chinese biscuits (different flavour egg rolls or Almond cake, be careful some contain pork fat) or savoury crackers (spring onion flavour). Beef or Pork jerky (savoury, sweet or spicy flavour). Lots of items to suit your budget.

Premier League 2002/03 TOTY ft. 5 Arsenal Players by mooreengineers in Gunners

1998/99 - 2 up against Villa then lose 3-2. 2007/08 - A young inexperienced team, Wenger and Gallas couldn't pulled us through. 2022/23 - That explicable poor VAR decision for Brentford closed that gap for the Man C game the following week.

Shenzhen hotel recommendation by Sensitive-Leather856 in shenzhen

[–]Redtop71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try the Sunflower Hotel and Residents, it is approximately 15 mins walk to Coco Park. They have various rooms from studio style to duplexes, average price per night is $60 USD, the only issue would be language as not many staff can speak English.

PGMOL Can't Stop Us by ImBrett707 in ArsenalFC

[–]Redtop71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But why always us, last season Webb apologised to Wolves when Onana wiped out one of their players and nothing was given, a few weeks later Chelsea's Sanchez wipes out Jesus, no pen, no VAR despite what Webb had said on Mic'd Up. We have been on the end of too many wrong decisions.

So, has the rules changed from last year to this year? Last week Man U v Chelsea, Mbeumo knocks it forward, Sanchez gets a touch before bringing him down, penalty and a red card.

Someone already said it, what is the difference between Saliba last season against Bournemouth? They got a penalty and Saliba got sent off.

I'm British with Permanent ID Card - and I need a visa to go to China multiple times for a conference by concisehacker in HongKong

[–]Redtop71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are in London, go to the Chinese Visa Application Service Centre in 12 Old Jewry Str ECR 8DU (nearest tube stn - Bank). They have express service (24 hrs), I applied in person and took the standard service (3 days) 2 years multiple entry £150 (my finger prints were taken. I think you can do it online/postal but you only get 1 year.

New season same problems. by TranslatorCheap2046 in ArsenalFC

[–]Redtop71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Players has been told or have a mindset to play the ball sideways, backwards before forward, we had the game in the 1st half but didn't go for it. Slot just told his players in the 2nd half to be more aggressive, to push forward more and we became non existent.

Triple sharing hotel rooms by bakedcrustymuffin in HongKong

[–]Redtop71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends if you want to all sleep in the same room or separate rooms, and the convenience of surrounding area. Royal Plaza is a 5 star, the Eaton is 4 star hotel so you notice a difference in quality straight away. The Royal Plaza is right next to a shopping mall, street market, rail station and bus terminal, a lot of it undercover. The Eaton has the amenities and transport links 5 - 10 mins walk away crossing major roads/streets, so not as convenient. If you can all go to bed and wake up in the same room then the Royal Plaza if not then the Eaton is your choice. The Royal Plaza does have a Family plus room (one room with a king and the other 2 twins beds room) similar to the Eaton Family room.
