Not just the tourists. A Russian friend told me last week that food prices in Moscow have risen by 20%. I thought Russia was self-sufficient in everything that matters, but it seems they were neglecting agriculture while they could export energy.

Dunno about Jacko's experience, but I've seen it happen several times in Peppermint. Guide with flag entered followed by 30-40 asians, walked round the place and filed out, sour looks on the faces of the ladies in the group. I think a few of the men may have stopped.

I always book in advance. Less hassle that way. After a 18-hour trip (including to and from the airports) I'm in no condition to hump my bags around the resort looking for somewhere to stay.

Another classic I always look forward to these posts

Dunno if I'm alone in this, but my travel insurance specifically excludes mororcycling, although I understand that they will cover it for an extra premium. I don't remember this being the case ten years ago

I don't see how it can be immoral, and I'm sure it's not illegal. If I sign up for an airline's loyalty programme then that's between me and the airline. If my credit card awards air miles, then that's between me and and the card issuer. It's just another variation on loyalty points. You just have to be careful that the airline allows you to accumulate miles on discounted seats, and that unused miles don't evaporate after a while..

Well Done, Adam I'm not in Patters to say it in person, but I'll be back before long Here's to the 19th.

Thanks, That's interesting. I've noticed that the male bag-fillers at the checkouts at Villa Market say "Kappun Khaa", and I always thought that the urine was being extracted. Or could it be that they thought they were doing "female" work?
