Aahhhhh, not more moto drivers....

After countless failed attemps from the local moto drivers offering me a ride across town and after my innumerable rejections that I really dont need one, they just dont seem to get the point and it simply just does my head in.

I try over and over again to convince them that I can walk. That my legs work ok, in fact, I want to walk. I tell them over and over that my hotel is just around the corner and that I am not illiterate, I can read maps just fine. I´ve tried different languages, pretending I dont speak English, putting on a very thick and very bad German accent. I´ve tried ingoring them, staring competitions, and saying no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, over and over again like Bart Simpson, no matter what they say I just answer them with 'no'. I´ve tried walking into them, sign language and sometimes I even bite my lip and just get on the back of the bike and pay the man some money just so they will leave me the hell alone! (aaaahhhh!!!)
.....But, there is some good news, dont dispair my fellow travellers, as I am about to past on my proven tried and tested best method of ridding you of these tourists sharks.....
Give them a mouthfull of totally incomprehensible gibberish and flap your hands around like a nutter. They tend to back away nevervously and look at you sideways too scared to look you in the eye, you can even get them to start avoiding you if you stay in one place for one enough. You never know, you might have fun doing it.

Today I was not feeling to well though due to lastnights evens I had no energy to use my primo tactics. So today I decided to venture outside in disguise. I pulled on long pants, slipped into a long sleeve jacket and pulled the hood right up over my face and I tucked my 'yellow' hair right in behind my ears. On went the big sunnies and off I went confident, knowing my cover would be a success.....

"Lady, where you go?", "Cheap, cheap", "You go now", "How much you pay?" "Lady, lady!" "Where you from?, Ah, Australia, G'day mate!"

They followed me for the whole block, then when I finally lost'em, more came. I just wanna be invisable, just for one day please!

Almost home..... "Lady, where you go?", "Cheap, cheap", "You go now"

"JUST PISS OFF AND LEAVE ME ALONE"

........I couldn't help it, it just came out...

"Alright, thats all you had to say..."

(aahhhhh!)
