All very commendable, save point 5.
If ou don't hand your docs over with a "forgotten" 50 or 100 Rand note, you're fooked.
Sadly, it seems such civilised policing methods have yet to reach Europe.

Some people (like moi) are old enough to remember the name of Dr Desmond Morris (bear with me). He was a well-known TV personality doing animal shows etc but his Ph.d was in Anthropology (study of apes/mankind development etc ? ) and I always remember him talking about being stopped by the fuzz & how to de-fuse the situation as part of his "people watching" study.

He said it's always best to adopt apologetic style & act "servile" & in fact where possible don't draw yourself up to full height in confrontational manner. He said even he crouched a bit when stopped by the BiB which was difficult as he was about 6ft 4 I think ! He reckoned that way he had avoided trouble & just got a polite tap on the wrist.

Gonna sound really Ghey here, but his book "Man Watching" was excellent, also another one called "Games People Play - The Psychology of Human Relationships" by Eric Berne

I knew I had a book title in mind when I wrote "people watching". Thanks for reminding me Man Watching.


Hope that Bobski's not around or he'll be asking where he can get a copy
