Lock and key

Post by Tas » 15th Sep, '10, 09:47

The Fu*king Chinese and there f8cking lock and key mentality. We have all the conversations to we are pink in the frigg'n face and bursting at the ear drum about H&S and personal protection gear. In Australia it's mandatory to have located easy access at entry points. In CHina everything is under f8cking lock and key and it takes 10 f*cking mobile phone calls by 4 differnet people to finds someone and a frigggn hour to get it. So you sit around for half an hour and have a hundred garbled conversations. God I hate this place.

just relieving the internal scream. figure it's safer here online with understanding folk, rather than outloud in location :)

Funny how they never try to translate f*k.
I'm out of here tomorrow 1pm for a 3.5-6hr drive subject to trucks and traffic. This has been a particularly stretched few days on location by m'self. Dont fly back in to Sydney until Sat am though and it's just stretching a distance in front of me.
how weird is this, I am actually looking most forward to getting to gym treadmill tomorrow, who am I and where is the old Tassie, cigarette & a Margarita first please!

Well normally they're the items top of list. But been ok on the cig front. Couple weeks back (pre-bloody trip) I had a run with the beginners group where I hadn't touched the things for several days, and had done all the prescribed trainging homework, and nearly kicked some butt in comparison to coming last the previous weeks. Really liked the feeling and being a bit on the comptetive side it was the first time I'd seen a decent reward for effort in a while and I liked the feeling. So I haven't quit, I'm just focussing in other areas. And quite liking that my legs aren't hurting so much climbing stair or when using crouchin whats'its.

If you were here you'd understand the rant lichety :)
