Paging the layabouts

<hard look>

The thin end of the wedge.

 

black/grey socks pulled up to the max, sandals and shorts and flat 'at.

Marvellous.

 

Give us £70 then?

 

Share my pain. TF, some of the culchie drivers are out of the country
for a while, at least. I find Dublin and Cork motorists are a bit more
clued-up, and certainly more bike aware.

 

'Ang on, but you're paid in funny money euro's, so surely your money's
going further over here ?

Paul.

 

Well, yes, but the money we have in the UK is worth less over here.

 

Leave it where it is if you don't need it.

I got royally screwed transferring my euros back to the UK. I opened a
currency (i.e. euros) current account with a UK bank, and the twats in
Italy 'helpfully' converted it to Sterling for me in the transfer.

The bastards. I'd have much preferred to choose the time I converted
(if at all, if the French Bolthole comes off), for obvious reasons.

Paul.

Paul.

 

Boltholes should be outwith the EU

Pretty much what I saw in Italy, which is why I was mildly surprised
that the French etiquette permits more than perfunctory lip to cheek
contact between the greeters ...

Paul.

 

More cheek-to-cheek than lips, IME. But then that's possibly just me
being British.
