Rum & driving on the left side

Mt Gay Rum. The best rum in the world. It’s a small brand made in Barbados. I was introduced to it by my lovely wife who dearly loves this elixir. I have imbibed massive quantities of this delicious drink preferably mixed with Coca Cola. Now this rum isn’t easy to come by, I’ve had it specially imported when we lived in Amersfoort by the local liquor store. Costs heaps as well.So I walk into a wine shop here to get some beer (the supermarkets don’t sell any alcohol) and what do I see? Mount Gay rum, not only that but it seems Mt Gay rum is the most popular one in Brisby! You can literally buy it on every corner of every street! This must be heaven! Bummer they don’t have any good Gouda cheese or Ouwe Kaas.

A couple of weeks ago I rented a car to do a tour. The first time you drive on the left side is tricky, dodgy and very scary they said. So with heightened senses a perfect concentration and a little nervousness I took the road. To be quite honest, the first 10 minutes are difficult, and after that there’s no problem at all. Quite easy actually. One thing remains weird, that’s when indicating direction every f*^%cking time the f&%*cking windscreen wiper would come up. The indicators are inversed.
