I love wearing sunglasses and have loads of different pairs - they suit me. Have never found nice perscription ones though.

I quite like sunglasses too. Have some ok ones, but those I really quite like seem to be way out of my price range whenever I see any. Prescription ones are only ever 'alright'. :(

I daren't buy expensive ones. I'd only break them. I don't like ones with big logos on either.

Heh, yeah, quite. And again, ditto on the logos.

What are your 'regs' Kenneth?

Oops. :$ Regs = regular girlfriends. Not that I'm some sort of lecherous Lothario.

Definitely not part of the Aussie lexicon! I picked up that appalling abbreviation from some gigolos in Indonesia, when they were talking about their "regular" female clients. I just adapted it.

Nice! Were their clients western women?

You have lived in some very strange places, and kept even more peculiar company. :/

Don't put yourself down Aaron. ;)

If it was referring to myself, it'd have been far stronger than "peculiar"!

Yes and no. The giggolos who used the term 'regs' were a small group of predominantly Western or Eurasian guys living in Asia and getting money for sex with wealthy older (mostly) Chinese women.

But yes in that some Western women and Japanese women go to Indonesia for sex with young Balinese guys, who charge informally, such as wanting clothing, mobile phones, houses and bank transfers. A bit like some British women going to Turkey for sex with younger men.

I knew I should have started that self-deprecating thread.

So are you a gigolo then Kenneth?

No. I dabbled in it briefly in the past. Just out of fun and curiousity, not for financial reasons.

For men or women? :)
