The Christmas party was okay - a gathering with nice group of people. Afterwards we went to another apartment to sit on the roof terrace and have drinks. At around 1.30am we headed to a bar, which was over-charging for entry, and so a different another bar - which was shut. I decided to call it a night and walked about 30 blocks home along spooky deserted streets. [Nb. the blocks here are extremely long.]
Of course, it should also be considered that most people believe me to be an attacker, rather than a victim - so I assume other criminals simple extend me a professional courtesy by leaving me alone. A few nights ago a was walking down the quiet street to my apartment. I crossed the street in front of am aggressive, large, black 4WD and a I did I heard all the doors click as the driver initiated the central-locking as I passed.
I had to laugh.
