Default Opening a new BAR!!!

Hi ford forums members!

I've been on here for quite a while, and haven't seemed to post anything of irrelevance (i hope) but this may sound weird.

My names Mick, and I'm an Executive chef of a large hotel in Hong Kong and I've finally convinced management to get with it in relation to social media.

I'm basically asking a favour.

The original bar/pub here is being renovated, and we've set up a facebook page.

All I want is for members if they have time to like the page and say hi to Chef Mick wishing us all the best..... there's a bit of a bet on saying that we can't get many likes or any comments.

Mods, if this is not allowed please smash this thread and accept my sincere apologies!!!!!

The facebook page is
http://www.facebook.com/DickensBarHK

As mentioned, just need to click like, but more importantly say hi to me and wish me all the best on the renovation that is taking place....

As long as you use my name in the comment thats enough... but the bar is a sports bar / great beers / ciders and tradditional pub fare.

As mentioned, I hope I'm not overstepping the mark.... the Bar is in Hong Kong so no competition in relation to any of you guys there in Aussie land!!!!

PS... I am a pure bred Aussie lad that has his own pride and joys/fleet of fords back home!!!

Thanks again and here's hoping there's some response as I'm growing tired of people not into change!

Mick!!!!!
