Sorry I didn't respond to this earlier. Tort was a compulsory paper for final exams. We went to Keble to be taught Tort by Peter North, subsequently Professor North. During the term he was in a car accident, I think, but anyway he brought a claim for nervous shock, so we had a first hand example! We were taught, in his absence, by an Australian, Dyson Heydon, a Rhodes scholar, subsequently a judge on the High Court of Australia, their Supreme Court. In a nice piece of symmetry, many years later, he was one of the judges in a case I ran, which went to the High Court, in Canberra, so I could remind him! Not nervous shock, the case involved implied, or ostensible authority, luckily we won! To bore you further, in another piece of symmetry, we considered using my Tutor at Worcester College, Professor Francis Reynolds, as an expert witness, as he was the author of the leading book on the topic.

How do you feel about multi-millionaires passing out the hat?

In UK, in my experience, on the escort sites, etc, 'South Asian' is used to denote someone from India. Asian can cover South East Asia, and China. Japan is usually separate

I found that once you work out the Tokyo subway system, it's very good. Everything now is also in English, and the directional signs at the stations are excellent. When I first went to NY, you still had the 3 different subway operators, IRT, BMT, and IND, often with separate entrances. This made the stations and signs very confusing, and the Subway map was a classic, in successfully confusing you! I still have one of those maps from 1978. Now, things are much better, I think, though there are still some issues. I also wonder why the NY Subway cars are built to provide maximum internal noise! I wonder if they leave all the screws loose, to achieve maximum rattling? Tokyo Subway trains are a pleasure, by comparison.

" If so, I have a bridge I'd like to sell you." Very good! -
Yum, yum! Even better with cum filling!

I gather that if you are very religious, you are not supposed to swallow saliva from another person. This could make oral sex to completion quite difficult!

The 'Barmy Army' is a term now applied to the England cricket fans who travel to watch England play. They are keen on cricket and beer, though not necessarily in that order!

I didnt realise that you had been taught English?

Good point! -

In UK, you see that after, for example, a violent death, probably drug related, the GoFundMe is set up almost before the body is cold. See also English tourists hospitalised in Thailand, without insurance. -

I think we realise that a death is a sad event, but Unicorn is making a valid point, in my view. This is becoming an industry. -

Agreed.

I gather the Ghan is really expensive, at least in posh class? A friend said that after a while it was rather dull.

Better than death by a thousand cuts!
