I'm over 60 now and I can't forget those golden years Big Thanks for the precious video

Thanks for sharing with us your touching story. "Cutting thread" is no stranger to me, I did quite a lot of this kind of tedious work when having my summer job in Sun Po Kong in 1976. 🥲

@@WillsReCollection In the late 1960's, I got a summer job at a bookstore on Argyle St. One of my duties was to pick up boxes of new textbooks from a Wanchai warehouse. Every 2 weeks, a delivery truck would pick me up at Mongkok, drive to Jordan Rd. Pier, cross the harbor on the YMT Vehicular Ferry, then go to the warehouse. The work was hard since the boxes were very heavy; but the ride on the lower deck of the YMT ferry was a lot of fun.

Thanks for your viewing. Could you understand Cantonese? My friend suggested me to add English and Chinese subtitles, that's a task too much for me😅. Yes, we all love HK, especially the good old days we spent living, studying or visiting there in the 60s-90s. My humble views.☺

@@WillsReCollection. Yes . I speaks Cantonese , read and write HongKong Chinese characters, but not as good as the HK locals . For I attended schools in the then British HK during the late 50's onto the early 1969 . I could read but not be able to write much of the HK Chinese anymore these days. The Cantonese language sounds elegant and beautiful ! ❤ 👍🏻 . I could speaks ToiShanese as well because my grandma and mama both were mostly ToiShanese - Cantonese . I got a Chinese last name ( long story ). 🇮🇹🇺🇸 🕊️ . Thanks for your valuable historical videos of the bygone Kowloon and HK . ❤ 👍🏻

@@JoeKasino1947 I know some Chinese who were born in Sydney decades ago, they speak English much much better than Cantonese, many of them could not read Chinese. I think my grandkids would become one of them. Toishanese is unique, I am interested . I actually am interested in all dialects spoken in south China. Thanks for your sharing. 😀
