Let me count, I think I have been to Wing J & F, Pier J & F, The Cabin, QF J & F and the Dragon Air G16 lounge. Don't forget the arrivals lounge under the train station. Just the EK lounge I have missed?

Edit: would have also been to the Plaza Premium lounge used by AY/MH/S7/RJ. Clearly its awesomeness has prevented me from remembering it

Apart from the above I have also been to the VS Clubhouse, CNAC VIP Lounge courtesy of Sri Lanka airlines. Not a bad lounge.

Clearly I have been to HKG way too many times.

But not many golf courses

[h=2]Kau Sai Chau Public Golf Course[/h] The only true public golf course in Hong Kong, the Jockey Club’s Kau Sai Chau Golf Course is one of the best in the region. Set on an island just off the coast from Sai Kung, these stunning 36-hole links designed by Gary Player are reached by dedicated ferry. The course is only open to non Hong Kong residents during the week, with fees starting at around HK$700 for a trip around eighteen holes. The South China sea that frames the course makes for plenty of Kodak moments.

[h=2]The Hong Kong Golf Club[/h] Steeped in tradition, Hong Kong’s first golf club was set up in 1889 with the original Deepwater Bay course built just ten years later. This 9-holer is still one of the most exlcusive clubs in town. Visitors need to ring in advance to play the links which are open to non members weekdays from 9am-2pm at a cost of HK$500 for a round. They also have a full 18-hole course at Fanling which is host to the yearly Hong Kong open.
[h=2]The Clearwater Bay Golf and Country Club[/h] A stunning setting on the tip of the Clearwater Bay Peninsula in the New Territories, the clubs 18 holes are open at all times to non members, although at HK$2000 a round, it doesn’t come cheap. There is a marina and helicopter pad on site for those who want to make a dramatic entry.
[h=2]Discovery Bay Golf Club[/h] Discovery Bay Golf Club is situated on a mountain above the upscale community of Discovery Bay on Lantau Island, one of Hong Kong's many outlying islands. Conveniently located within 25 minutes of the Central financial district; 10 minutes from Hong Kong Disneyland and 20 minutes from Hong Kong International Airport, Discovery Bay offers a unique golfing experience within minutes of the city.

I have a flexy J booking to use up that expires mid Jan. Beyond mid Jan I might be more permanently unavailable.

Agreed!

With enough points with VS from Hertz, I was thinking LHR-SYD (I know the taxes are death but the clubhouses in LHR & HKG could be worth it).

Also have a 9-10 sector quasi-SC run on UL when they join OW purely for fun so CNAC will have to wait!

I lived in HKG for three years, played all these courses many times.

I was a professional at scheduling meetings that ran for six hours, long enough to see a client for an hour then squeeze in 18 holes and no one knew where I went.

When I visit HKG now, I tend to only play Clearwater Bay, such as I will week after next.

Let's just say it's not good. Probably makes the CPH Cabin look good :/

Did anyone put up a TR of the SIN lounges yet? I was going to put up photos and that was all..
 
I knew there was something I had to do! I think the photos are still on my phone. I will have a look and post them soon.
