I was holding back on that - never kick someone when they are down.

It’s no reflection on those who sold Avon: I just thought most of the company’s products were pretty ordinary.

This airport gate map is doing my head in.

What happened to gates 36-57? Why is this allowed to happen?

This invites a location/airport guessing competition.

I say Canada

This is the closest I get to social media. I don't do cough face or stalk book.

You always explain things so nicely.

I think the US Pre Clearance Flight box might be a clue.... what general vicinity/area is the US suspicious of these days and it doesnt involve a wall.

 

[Quickstatus]

That’s why I suggested Canada. Maybe Caribbean? or Middle East?

Ireland offers pre-clearance from at least one airport.

SNN or DUB or both?

Edit:
It will be one of these:

Preclearance Locations | U.S. Customs and Border Protection

36 to 57 are the poverty pack bus gates - you take a left opposite gate 35 to reach them.

A young kid asked me for money outside the casino as I walked by yesterday evening. When I said "Sorry, no." he dragged up phlegm and spat loudly in my direction. This is not the first time. Don't think he realises he is extremely rude. And obviously not too bright.

The week before a young girl was harassing 3 young girls in Queen St mall and 3 cops standing around less than 100 metres away.

If you're going to ask for money be polite at all times?
