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.
