Re: @ 老友過來傾一餐 @

HuiTung,

Sure ah, for sharing here.
But I have to seek your consent 1st ga ma.

Clues and tactics ?
Should 1st ask those who are already IN woh.
You know which ones piglet is / can get in, which ones he can't ga la.
Suggest you make out a shortlist of your target 1st. If your shortlist is too long, ==> you will easily get confused, and your son will be dxxx bored after the 1st few interviews ==> will not perform well.
