I love the AMI ad about a smile coming back to you and I always smile at people when out. A little bit of friendliness goes a long way.

Happy birthday to your little girl she is a week younger then my little man. Alan is the same people often ingnore him it totally sux.

I must be nuts too, I'm forever smiling at people, esp kids and babies. It was very hard to get used to not looking people in the eye and smiling or saying hello when in Australia, people look at you as if you are a stalker or worse!! It was so nice to come back home and feel a bit normal - whatever that is these days

Depends what mood I'm in whether I initiate smiling but I always smile back if someone does at me. It was really weird coming over here as we have found the elderly people really grumpy and unfriendly! So strange.

That guy - he walks around town and West End every day.  If you've ever lived centrally you'll know the one - tall, loping walk, old now, often wears a beige trenchcoat.  I feel sorry for him because he seems desperately lonely.  But after being followed (seriously followed) a few times now and snapped at twice I no longer take it upon myself to do anything about it - especially not now that I'm walking with a little baby! 

Hmmm... Palmy isn't really full of nutters.  Just my end of town is!  There's this old guy down the road who sits there and waves energetically at every vehicle going past (he loves trucks and loves when cars toot), every day - and says "hello gorgeous" whenever I walk past.  He's great!  A Palmy icon.
