[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2014821, member: 493719"] [USER=209498]@Prem51[/USER] got most of it right, though there are strays as well who frequent the beach (animal charities do a great deal, but animal ownership is nowhere near as ''caring' re sterilisation etc as We in UK are used to..) Dogs are pretty tidy, and will dig and bury, ( and I can't remember seeing one doing anything in sight on the beach.) Yep for being careful, ...though most just want a hug and the company it seems, the free food they get seems like an added bonus. I hear what ya say, re bikes and dogs, [USER=209498]@Prem51[/USER] ..and if I'm honest when I first came out you could add. *Airplanes *Malaria *Snakes ( sea and land) *Bag snatches And many others to the list of "things to be wary of" But as I ride a bIggish bike in London ( :watching: ) I've got used to ' rationalising ' ACCEPTABLE Risks. And I suppose as diabetics, we play that game, everyday But we are all different of course, what suits one, won't suit every one. Personally I've never been a victim of any bike, bag, or animal attack anywhere I've travelled, but I DO realise it DOES happen, and that I perhaps have been lucky. But I always try to go in eyes wide open, evaluate and try not to let it interfere with what I'd LIKE to do, if i feel I can balance the risks. Though I do have to own up to having to abandon a scooter one year, as we fed bananas to the cows and a herd greedily engulfed us... Cue much laughter by us (and the small crowd who gathered ) at the stupidity of the situation..hahaha :hilarious::hilarious::hilarious: [/QUOTE]
