I believe in ghosts. Not the chain-rattling, shroud-clad nebulae that float in and out of Shakespeare’s plays and Dickens’ stories. I’m referring to people who have `moved on’ but still come back for a visit, who can talk and walk with you. Souls... Spirits… Whatever we want to call them, it’s impossible to have lived in a place like Hong Kong like we did for a dozen years and not believe in them. Just impossible.

Buckingham Palace, the official residence of the British monarch, is one of the highlights of any visit to London. Did you know that just beside the palace are the Royal Mews, which you can also visit? The Mews are where the Royal Family have kept their fine horses and elegant carriages for centuries and where they have parked their luxury automobiles since Edward VII purchased the first royal car in 1901.
