原本為期兩年的「工作假期」(working holiday) 變了在長駐在英國工作,皆因享受離家很遠的感覺。

有時候與家人相距遠一點,大家的關係反而會近一點。

戲票優惠日


在 Notting Hill 這個既是遊客區又是高尚住宅區的昂貴地段,竟然讓我找到只售3.5英鎊的戲票!

港幣 40 元看一場電影,現在在香港也不容易找到吧...

Coronet Cinema 是一間很舊的戲院,嚴格來說是一間加了個屏幕的劇院。這裡逢星期二是優惠日,每票只售3.5英鎊。

不知因為特價還是本身就是如此,這裡不設劃位,座位都是先來者挑,遲了入場就只好座最旁邊、最前或最後了。

這戲院也沒有上網訂票服務。買票可以打電話,又或者親身到票房購買。優惠期間當然是先到先得,預早買了票就可避免臨場買不到票。

不要以為戲院不在市中心 (不太正中但也在 Zone 1 內) 就一定買到票,我來的這天下午 6 時和 8 時 45 分都滿座,相信還有更多人失望而回。

看完便宜電影還可以走路回家,太好了!

Hi Kay, sorry to ask some help thru this post.. actually, i have a similar plan as you next year but have no idea how to start from here. I'm a HK local gal as well and never lived aboard. I love UK so wanna give a try to travel around plus find a job there so I can stay longer to experience. I'm so frustrated about the working visa (cause I'm over 30's, can get working visa anymore), house searching, etc. I can speak english but of course not native...anyway, seems i got dozen questions but don't know start from where. Hope to hear from you ..

普遍都係不設劃位, 但近年我發現好多大型連鎖戲院加左項VIP劃位, 大概有置中位置3-4行 + 換左豪華D大張D既CHAIRS = 貴1-2鎊, 但D英國人都係照亂錯一通, 好少人特登俾多多1-2鎊坐VIP...XD

b,
If your over 30, you really have to get a job there which your employer is willing to sponsor your visa. To be honest its pretty hard and seems impossible to just go there and find one.
I would suggest you to find a job in HK which you will have a chance to be transfer to the UK headquarter / subsidiary. Or you go study there and got an internship there. Or you marry a British / European.
If you want to work in the UK, everyday things come second, you have to sort out your visa / or at least you know which one you should or can go for first.

Social Psychology,
我初去倫敦時都時常見到不設劃位 / 即使有劃位但都沒人跟著坐的情況,但後來可能去的都是差不多 full house 的戲院或場次,大家都只可以乖乖的照劃位位置坐,可能是習慣了香港這裡的模式,我覺得這樣比較好呢!

sololoso,
多謝留言問候,最近的確是懶了點...
