When it comes to vodka, the Russians know best. That is why Russian researchers have spend five years developing and patenting a new technology for OVAL, an Austrian premium vodka defined by six qualities: purity, enjoyment, tastefulness, naturalness, design, and technology. The world’s first structured vodka was recently launched in Hong Kong and we now have six bottles to give away. To win yours, tell us the address of Oval vodka’s website.

Waiting for Godot

With the use of few props and scene changes, this minimalist work by Samuel Beckett has been described as the most significant play of the 20th century. Vladimir and his friend Estragon are waiting for Godot – in the hope of salvation. Pozzo comes in and begins to question their reason for waiting. Many guesses have been made about Godot and the meaning of the play – is it religious, philosophical, classical, psychoanalytical or biographical? You could get a pair of ticket to the show on 2 November at 7:30 pm if you can tell us in what language the original text of the play was written.
