OFF THE VINE: All together now: 'Oh! He's going to eat pizza! Oh!' etc

<p>Vine hears that Douglas Gautier, the charming and affable deputy </p><p>executive director of the Hong Kong Tourist Association, has joined the </p><p>seemingly endless procession of people who have slipped through the exit </p><p>door in recent months. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>We also hear that Douglas, who has a long and glorious history in </p><p>communications in Asia, has just one regret: that Vine has yet to give </p><p>him "the treatment" that others have been blessed with. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Let it not be said that we are deaf to the pleas from our audience: </p><p>Douggie, baby, "The Thunder From Down Under" - this one's for you! </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Mwaah, mwaah. </p><p><BR><BR> </p>
