The Geordie Boys










Our man in Hong Kong will have to change to Our Geordie Men in Hong Kong for this week.
Where Roy Willis gets his energy from I'll never know. From the minute he stepped off the plane he was at Ned's, and then a sit in on Sunday with the big band.
Today it's off to see the Big Buddha on Lantau island, cue for a song, "When Buddha Smiles". 
From the Geordie Duo of Hong Kong.
