Jumped onboard the rattly, rickety old style trams to the ferry terminal, over the chop of a busy harbour to Kowloon and up to the Ladies Markets for a comprehensive sensory assault. Designer watch mister? Rolex Sir? Yeah, and I'm Prince Charles. Mind you, these fakes are first class.  But you'll still feel ripped off when you realise you could've got the same fake just a little further up Nathan Street for $HK1000 less.  To be continued......
