Thanks TS for the advise. I sort of suspected most things are now underground. The atmosphere seems to have changed considerably since the Chn took over the colony and I sense its more conservative & closeted . I popped into the original Wallys and Tony's bars in TST tonight and while they had the feel I'm looking for, both were still bereft of locals who are probably all now home watching the soccer! Will try my luck at a few more bars tonight
