Why is it when a man cheats, he is a complete horn ball c*** with no respect for women blah blah blah. If a woman cheats they always have an excuse, not getting enough attention, you didn't buy them the expensive pair of shoes, you stayed out drinking with the lads all night, caught wearing their expensive underwear  ;) ........... I'm surprised it's not more women who cheat than men as most women generally cheat to get back at their men folk for something and most men generally crap at keeping their ladies happy all the time  :)

Received in the post yesterday a letter from Victoria police in Australia, a speeding ticket for speeding while out there on my honeymoon in October. was wondering should i just bin it or can they make me pay it? will it come back to bite me on the ass if i don't? i have no intentions of returning there for the next 20/30 years. the fine is about $160 bucks and i was doing a 108 in a 100 km/hr zone. feckers. My intention at the minute is to bin it unless i am advised otherwise. Any advice.

Don't listen to anyone who says pay it on this thread. I had loads of fines and outstanding tax owed after I left Oz and have been back numerous times since. Also don't listen to any of the nonsense about it affecting your entry to the US, credit rating ect.... The Aussie cops have no jurisdiction to send in debt collectors nor or they gonna put you on Interpol's most wanted list  :P

Bogart is owned by John Keenan.  I used to work for him!  An absolute gentleman and probably the best salesman in the world.  I've seen men come into the shop for a tie and come out with 2 suits 3 shirts and a coat as well!   You will get a super deal with John and his customer service is 2nd to none. 

Why people give their money to high street giants with no appreciation of your business is beyond me.  They just suck all the money out of the local community to london or wherever.  Support your local retailers guys. 

I hate pukes like that who can't leave you in peace to shop or buy what you come in for  >:( 

I personally have found some of these local community businesses, as you put it, ridiculously mark up the retail prices of clothes compared to what you would pay elsewhere (not saying this is the case in Bogart's). One such shop in Dungannon is particularly bad for this as I can recall. Wasting time playing deal or no deal with pushy sales people to get a fair price is a pain in the a*se. Likewise I'm not interested in paying over the odds for something just to listen to a crawling sales person try and convince me they are less interested in commission and more in giving me good customer service  ;)
