Sometimes the freaky types wander into Colony (Cos they hear it's the place to be, and then realise it is the normal crazy people's place to be...and run) and when they do I occasionally just accidentally crash into them on the dancefloor. Ah well, jammer vir hulle!<BR/><BR/>Fly - I think that mentality exists the world round. It def. exists amongst the people I was at school with. Still stuck in their worlds & images & groups from Std. 6.

Hell, some of those women with no front teeth in die Kaap look like they could out drink their own hubbies! But the more middle class girls in the platteland definitely are of your more conservative persuasion. <BR/><BR/>No tv in a club....what a blessing!! What genius!!

My brother came back sprouting it about during his recent home visit!<BR/><BR/>Sounds like a definite "Need to Do" experience!! Just for the chuckle and, as you say, appreciation of what's here. I learnt to really appreciate my regular hang outs, smiling strangers & mild hangovers so much more post-Friday!<BR/><BR/>I would probably be beaten up within a minute if in a pub like that. I remember brit chicks like that from my small french town days, and I remember just steering clear. At least you know most of the girls here are just (whiny screeching) talk & wouldn't know how to throw a punch, no matter how tough they talk.Champagne Heathenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09540128789208726965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28321828.post-1163426667808633922006-11-13T16:04:00.000+02:002006-11-13T16:04:00.000+02:00Anon - I definitely agree on the "loo glares" & th...Anon - I definitely agree on the "loo glares" & that ruining half your energy & mood! And def. don't try to get between 1 of those girls & the mirror. *SLAP*. I think that is when I always end up in trouble...when I wander on my own to the toilets. Get more & more edgy @ the bitchy comments and negative energies exuding from those ppl (you can somehow avoid them on the dancefloor/ at the bar). And then I crack & start ranting - to cause chaos & allow reality to sneak into their lives. sigh.

But I am sure a barter system could be set up for those 2 necessities. <BR/><BR/>Fly - why have you been hanging out in Benoni!?!? My best joke of places like that is the "Dress Code". It will be a hole whether people are wearing collars or not! <BR/><BR/>I have never thought as the girls as predators. Now I am even more freaked out! <BR/><BR/>Dave - ha ha!! Tough w.end? ;0) A friend & I were discussing this yesterday, that even if you take them home you can more than likely expect "paint-by-numbers" action. No crazy intense stuff. You may as well have stayed home with good porn & good wine, and had the energy & ability to go out the next night to a decent place!<BR/><BR/>Jam - I know. I know. Sigh. Sob. But I had to. Let alone promise someone, everyone else had left me to "have a good night in". ;)<BR/><BR/>Gawd.
