Hong Kong in the sixties/六十年代香港·二

Hong Kong City Hall Library · 香港大會堂圖書館
























Days were simple, after school activities were reading at Hong Kong City Hall Library, watching matinee movies, television still under developed. If you like music, there was Huang Chi Heng's popular western songs or Hui Yi Lin Sunday's Special. If you like shopping, you could go to Ocean Terminal. If you like camping, you could go to Lantau Island. The young people were shy and innocent in those days, every day they waited outside the school gate for the girls, or sometimes wrote letters, poem or sent a gift of book to express their wishes. The most fashionable clothing were jeans, or university uniform brought back from the US. Girls wore miniskirts to attract attention. The wealthy ladies preferred tailor made Chi Fu.

日子簡單明淨, 課餘活動是去香港大會堂圖書館看書, 看廉價早場或公餘場電影, 電視在萌芽階段, 愛聽音樂的有黃志恆的歐西流行曲點唱, 有許綺年的星期美點, 逛公司的去海運大廈, 愛露營的去大嶼山, 年輕人靦腆純情, 天天在校門外等女孩子放學, 也有寫信寫詩送書來表達意思, 穿牛仔褲最為時髦, 從美國帶回來的大學校衣最受歡迎, 女孩子的迷你裙引來途人側目, 小姐太太們愛穿裁縫手工的旗袍。
