Village children fooling around on Lion Rock
In the 1950s, Nga Tsin Wai's kids enjoyed an extensive playing space. When he was aged 11 or 12, Ng Chi Wing often went up to Lion Rock with friends to catch jumping spiders, then placed them in a small box for fighting. The spiders made netting between the leaves in trees and capturing them required careful observation. In seeking out their prey, the friends travelled all over Lion Rock and often as far as Shatin’s Hung Mui Kuk. In summer, they played around in the water in the hill pits. Every time they went up the hills, Ng Chi Wing, who was slightly older, took the lead.
