[QUOTE="Mikem, post: 556181, member: 29"] Watching James Bond movie "Man With The Golden Gun". Recognized the bar in Hong Kong "The Bottoms Up". Back in the early eighties my friend and I were on vacation from the Kwajalein Missile Range. We were in the same bar with two Australians, a New Zealander,a South African, a Rhodesian and a French Canadian. A local British couple came in and were acting like ***** to everyone because we weren't local Brits. We could only take so much after they kept giving the bar maid from Kenya who spoke the Queens English with a British accent a really hard time. We started flipping coints to see who was going to take the husband outside. The owner or Manager of the place was a French Lady who looked like she was in her seventies booted the couple out before it really got nasty. According to her all the local Brits in Hong Kong acted that way towards non local Brits. Ran into the same issue later on in Thailand. What really surprised me was all the Brits I worked with overseas in aviation were really stand up guys. [/QUOTE]
