Beaches, Barry White-style sexy voices, bullies....
As predicted - had about two hours sleep because of the jet lag... can't moan after such a wonderful holiday in the great outdoors ...ok, have to ‘fess up I squeezed some shopping in too - clothes are about half-price in California.
Check out the info I posted late yesterday when I got back if you're into hiking but I forgot to mention a couple of beaches we went to - if you get to California visit Point Lobos, Monterey for the seal and other wildlife. Had an amazing time walking on the cliffs spotting seals - stunning scenery.
If you get up to Lake Tahoe there are tons of hidden gems all the way around the lake...too many Katy Perry's style hot bikini clad girls though... just like her song California seems to be full of them.
And then you can go into Nevada [Lake Tahoe lies between California and Nevada] to check out the casinos. Though some of them are quite shocking, dark, and full of robotic gamblers.
TODAY’S TIP: some of the gamblers looked like they hadn't seen sunlight for a week. I have a way of managing gambling [don't visit Nevada often so only gamble about once every five years!]- I only take the amount of money I'm prepared to lose – and NO more. That way you can't get in trouble.
Think about gambling this way: however much money you're prepared to chat into the road for the first passerby to pick up, and not care about giving way, is how much you should gamble.
So if you want the casino experience and you're prepared to lose, e.g., £50 don't take a penny more. If you lose it all walk away very quickly.
If you win, put your original £50 back in your pocket and think carefully about whether you want to risk your winnings.
You might think this is a very basic thing that everyone would follow when gambling but gambling addiction is NO joke and it's on the rise with Internet gambling. But I'm certainly not could be pegged faced about someone who doesn't have a problem with it who wants to occasionally have a flutter - just do it wisely!
So a Barry White, deep-styley voice attracts the ladeez - reported in today's press - he certainly sounded like sex-on-wheels with his deep throated warblings - but what did the researchers think? That a high pitched voice would attract us?? Isn't this kind of a given?
Thank God the vile man who has tormented bereaved families on the Internet has been put away for a few months. Sean Duffy is a ghastly person who should've been put away for longer. I can't imagine the hell those families went through - my heart goes out to them.
Please report any type of bullying - the more bullies are reported the more likely we'll get the b*stards in the end.
Happy Wednesday, Pam x
