Hong Kong lawyer surprised to receive magazine about Hong Kong lawyers

Fumier, a Hong Kong lawyer, expresses surprise at being sent a copy of Hong Kong Lawyer magazine (and reports that he appears in one of the photographs published in the self-same magazine).

Now you can call me stupid if you like, but I’d have thought that the publishers of that magazine had pretty much scored a direct hit by sending a copy of their magazine to a Hong Kong lawyer. If Fumier had received a copy of “Filipino Deep Sea Fisherman” or “Australian Sheep Farmer” that would be a little strange. And a great deal more interesting…

    Who says I’m a lawyer? Pure speculation!

    Hemlock said you were a lawyer, and I always believe everything he writes.
    When this comes to court, my defence will be based on the number of references to the law and lawyers in Fumier – and posting the incorrect addresses for your website won’t help you!

    I, too, always believe Hemlock, but what he actually said was “[Fumier] would appear to be a British member of the legal fraternity.”
    Hemlock always chooses his words carefully!
    I neither admit nor deny anything.

    He must be a lawyer – he can’t even answer a direct question. Plus you’ll no doubt be getting a bill soon.

    I know the answer to this because I make a point of finding out these things so I have adequate blackmail material for a future date. More than that I am not saying.

    Thanks – would love to but can we avoid going to propoganda next time – I felt so out of place.
