The German who lives across the road from us and wants the laws of Germany to apply here. According to him we're not allowed to have workmen on a Sunday. (This is a Buddhist country and Sunday is not the Sabbath.) He also called the police because he thought his (American) next door neighbour was playing the guitar too loudly. But it's OK for him to have his TV blaring, his bloody dogs barking all night, and generally make as much noise as he likes. I wish he would go back to Germany.
(Thanks for the rant. Very enjoyable.)
