There must be a whole network of them, cos when I order from my local chinese, I always get the 'Wong Fook Hing' order?

A billion years ago, when I had my first 'proper' job.....working on the counter at the Post Office in Cranleigh, Surrey....I'm sure I used to send on registered mail from the local Chinese restaurant to an addy in Hong Kong which was in 'Fuk Pat' Street..

Who is this Pat ?.....And what did he do to deserve this ? (maybe it was Pat Fuk Street....It's SO long ago now.)

Cheers - Phil
