Sitting with Bill at S & S the other night I said "You have done a lot for this town Bill"
Bill replied "Who said that"
"You did"
Some Bali changes since the early 80,s:
Smoking in the back of the plane on the way over
Walking across the tarmac to the airport
Wearing sarong and singlets
Fish and chips was a deep fried fish with crisps
Garlic bread was a slice of garlic with cut up garlic
Just over 600 rupiah to the kiwi dollar
Buying a mickey mouse watch and it lasting a day so buying another one (lasted a day)
Squat toilets
Dogs everywhere etc etc
Loved it then, seen the changes, kept up with some and still love the place
Not better not worse, just different
Regards
