wonderful people out here. The world is full of annoying ****s - no country is immune...

There is also something wonderfully amusing about being given a hard stare or finger wagging from an old swiss man for breaking some rule you had no idea it existed.

Whereas the Swiss are just smugly, flatulently, cynically evil.

since day one. Have lived in swiss villages and been met with warmth and hospitality everywhere. Must be my wonderful personality or my huge gold bullion haul and swastika tattoo... :-)

In London, such a man would be beaten to death in very short order - and rightly so.

Don't get involved, he'll only break your heart again. Upping sticks and moving to some other foreign land every 10 minutes, the bloke's a nutter.

Partly because of money, but mostly because she hates what she constantly calls 'the f*cking Swiss'. God, she hates them!
