Look, I am generally a nice person and I will donate sincerely when I am NOT eating! Once, a friend of mine freaked out because that person said "tidak cukup"! LOL! My friend gave that person the longest lecture that I bet she will have had a traumatic experience ever since then.. <BR/><BR/>As for the replicas, my husband bought one from his friend, in a bid to help him out (konon), a Tag Hauer which was really really nice. He got loads of compliments from people. But eventually, he went back to his grandma's place and it became rat food. Seriously, the ate the straps! LOL!

When try to give me useless leaflets I just don't get them. I just tell them: no, thanks and keep on walking.<BR/><BR/>I have never been approached by people while eating though (here). I suppose it must be extremely annoying. <BR/><BR/>It is even worse when they don't understand that no thanks means "no, leave me alone" :)<BR/><BR/>Have a great week!La delirantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05247193369830489441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6839903378804402359.post-6156788487198448722008-03-03T16:22:00.000+08:002008-03-03T16:22:00.000+08:00Lena - I'm sure a lot of people still use these fa...<B>Lena - I'm sure a lot of people still use these fake or imitation goods as you put it and the thing is you sometimes really can't tell an imitation from an original until it stops working ...
