In Sydney there are periodic lunches convened under the name of the "Fragrant Harbour" lunch group. They are very informal and usually occur the third Wednesday of the month.The next lunch will be January 21. If there are any old HK hands interested in joining this lunch please let me know. The only requirement is that you have lived and worked in HK during the past few decades.

My mother, Helene Marie Caudron Brooks, was the 2nd of the three daughters of Maurice (Kleber) and Marcelle Caudron.  She was born in Ohain, Nord, France and as a young girl went with her family to live in Singapore for a few years before moving with them in her teens to Hong Kong in the early 1930s where her  father set up a trading company operating between France and Hong Kong. He family retained their property in northern France and she travelled there often.
