I am leaving Friday week and by the time I pay for my accom. and spending money for 24 days there will not be much change from $4000.
So I feel I will be doing my bit for the economy. I do not go out of my way to give anyone a hard time or be miserable, except for that grub in the little shop on the beach between the Kumala Pantai and Blue Ocean.
I haggle sometimes ,donate sometimes, and sneak the odd duty free out of my flask occasionally.
I am like you I treat it basically as a game and if you have had too many Bintangs you generally loose,in fact even if you think you have won ,you have most probably lost and do not know it.
Baldie, I wouldn't take the comments to seriously.
At some stage or other we have all been paid out or paid someone out,
in fact I think either you have done it to me or I have done it to you,I can't quite remember,but life goes on. There are some people on the forum who really dislike me, even though they have never met me. They might get a shock if we did meet.
So I will continue to play the game and I hope the Balinese people enjoy my $4000, because I always enjoy their hospitality.
Cheers Hools
