Sep 13, Tue: It’s just prior to Mid-Autumn Festival, and residents form up outside a bakery to redeem coupons for mooncakes.

Sep 14, Wed: Another viral photo: A 64-year-old woman is leaving a KFC restaurant in Wan Chai when she slips and lands on her posterior.

She calls the police and is taken to hospital for tests. The KFC branch manager says that despite combing surveillance footage, they have not been able to identify the source of the ghastly deposit.
