March 1, 201511 yr Popular Post Since when is 42 considered 'late 40s' ? I dont target the youngsters in bars here but I'm buggered if I'll ever be told I'm 'too old' to walk into a public bar in Thailand - different story if it's invitation only or a club. I havent been to NZ since the early 90s, but I dont recall either Auckland or Christchurch being pretentious - clearly, times have changed. https://au.news.yahoo.com/world/a/26468549/man-too-old-to-enter-bar/ Garth Tomas, 42, went to Bar 101 alone on a Saturday night only to be told that the age limit for entry was 38, "We are only being responsible and asking the question, 'What is a man in his late 40s trying to do when he's asking to get into a bar full of 18-year-old girls at 2am?'" Probably the same thing he was doing 4 years earlier when he WAS allowed into your tragic backpacker bar, <deleted> ... A better question might be what you're doing opening a bar aimed at locking a bar full of 18-year olds behind closed doors and denying others entry on the basis that they're 'too old'. Nothing like a captive audience, eh Slick ? The same guy who will happily sell alcohol to kids until they're maggoted and laying into one another out in the street - or being thumped by his bouncers - is suddenly a guardian of public decency ? Give me a break.
March 2, 201511 yr Now I'm old I hate ageism in all its forms. I cashed in my Fidelity ISA but they won't release my money to my UK bank until they verify my identity - (it didn't stop them from cashing it in & putting it in a 'non-interest bearing account'!) First my ID copies were verified by a Police Inspector complete with badge number. They were turned as he was RETIRED! Then they asked for a firm of lawyers to notarise them. Then they turned this down presumably because they are RACIST. (They say they advised me wrongly.) Now they say my ID can only be verified by UK Embassy - a 300 kms round trip; an overnight hotel stay + verification fees + making an appointment. How this rigmarole is supposed to combat money-laundering beats me. The money is going (eventually - process started October 2014!) to my long-standing UK account?
