    An indian friend once told me never make friends with a monkey and never make enemies with them. In my experience that has turned out to be very good advice. I dont trust the crafty wee buggers.

    I lived in India for a bit and lost count of the times i was robbed by monkeys.
    I felt safer when i lived in Camberwell. Plus i scared of a gang of them in our yard after they started ripping up the plants ( i pointed a broom at them as they think its a gun ). They got their own back by going up on my roof, ripping my washing of the line , and shitting all over my clothes.
    I think Jane Goodall would agree with me when i say monkeys are just very naughty adolescents.

    You're not kidding. When I saw them in Gib, a guy was feeding one of the apes M&Ms one at a time from a large bag he had 'concealed' in the pocket of his cargo shorts. Big mistake. 10 seconds later his shorts were in shreds around his ankles and a very smug looking ape was munching from a large bag of M&Ms.

    Them monkeys know every trick in the book, so its better to just hand over the munchies quickly to one or two, otherwise all hell breaks loose.

    On Elephanta island there is a cafe ( loose term) where the waiters carry catapults in a futile attempt to stop the monkeys nicking yer dosa.
