    Why don't the natives look where they are going? I deliberately don't verge my track if they obviously ignore me.

    Yes, I do agree. What blows my mind, however, is that when you decide to ram the next fucker in your way, male or female, they, both male and female, have an absolutely uncanny gift to be able to get out of your fuckin' way, no matter how hard you try. And then continue on their way as if they just said "Have a nice day." It tends to deflate the biggest blowhard.

    Me : "Would you mind taking your finger out of your nose ? You've got the whole top joint in there".

    She : "But I'm LISTENING, dear " !

    Hate fricken traffic jams, was stuck in the fricken Lion's Head tunnel this morning and couldn't have a ciggie out the window because the police and CCTV cams were around and it's a 5000 fine for smoking in a fricken tunnel, and another up to 1500 if you throw it out the window you get done for littering.

    For frick's sake.

    ...and if I go to the mainland I can only take 19 ciggies back with me, that's right, only 19, not 20. What's with that? I have to pay tax on one ciggie or smoke it? Tough decision...but you're not allowed to smoke in fricken immi because it's a HK 5000 fine, and if you throw the butt away you're done for fricken littering and that's another HK 1500.

    Gotta love this place.

    Once you make eye contact you have lost.

    Best bet? Simply stare into the distance and walk.

    What I was going to say.
    If they suspect you've seen them, they carry on as if you're not there and that you will veer or stop.
    Best bet is to use your peripheral vision (for safety) and do as you say, ignore them.

    I have a brake light on my rear for that reason, failing that a nong walking in front and behind may offer protection on valet's day off

    Bastards who buy HP sauce. For those that don't know, HP stands for Houses of Parliament. Hence the label pictures of London buses and Big Ben. Used to be made in Aston, Birmingham. Then Heinz bought the brand. Shortly after, 250 brummies got made redundant and production was shifted to Holland. At least three former employees committed suicide. Buy another brand of brown sauce. Let the bean counters know they can't save 2p and keep the same sales volume. People matter.

    Don't ya just love lawyer & bank leeches?

    So much for my dreams of an ocean side villa, pool and a beema!
    The National Australia Bank just lost a class action suit for overcharging on late payment fees.
    I just received a cheque for $60.13.
    My last Visa statement had small print on the rear stating that they have now doubled the above fees to $60.00…..

    And then they brought out that horrible cheese vegemite.
    Cheese and Vegemite sandwiches are great.....but not with Kraft overly-processed-shit cheddar slices. Perhaps if they'd done it with some lumps of Anchor Mild or Tasty...but not even then: they just didn't get it how Vegemite has to be spread, not like peanut butter, all over the slice of bread, but in dabs here and there.

    You gotta love the quality of Thai tradesmen. Go out for lunch and come back to a flooded house.

    Bastard.

    If only Thailand had plumbers.

    I'm wanting a small TV (for a small space), 26 to 28 inches in size. I'm finding they cost more than larger TVs.
