I find it disturbing to be drawn attention to rule 9 for services I have not advertised, while others don't get admonished for services they DO advertise.
How about rule 1, that of lost common sense?

Les seems to think that countries like the USA and UK are simply awful and paradise lies in places like the Turks and Caicos.

If your idea of living is moving to an island populated by locals whose hospitality makes you wonder if you should have moved to Afghanistan then this is the place for you.

If your idea of entertainment is spending every night in a vomit smelling pub called Danny Bhoys with other like minded, brainless expats getting wasted then this is the place for you.

If your idea of shopping is paying $8 for a loaf of bread and $20 for a bottle of wine that normally costs $8 anywhere else, this is the place for you.

If your idea of government is one that steals millions upon millions of dollars in real estate scams and whose premier rapes the guests at parties, this is the place for you.

If you love churches and want to donate your money to crooked preachers, this is the place for you.

If you enjoy nasty, dusty, bush landscape then this is the place for you.

If you like to gaze upon half built structures who have lost their funding due to total mis management then this is the place for you.

If you enjoy propaganda channels on the TV, comparing the Premier to Nelson Mandela and Churchill, then this is the place for you.

If you like conch and are willing to eat it very regularly for the rest of you life then this is the place for you.

If you don't care about human rights and what happens to the illegal aliens who arrive on their shores from Haiti (They sit starved and de-hydrating for days in the governments prisons), then this is the place for you.

There are so many things, but yes it is tax free. Brilliant. No taxes, no services, nothing to do. Except write to people and tell people you don't pay taxes. Fantastic. I go to the beach every day. Wow. How amazing.

@ les666

It's not clear to me what you are doing in these forums: advertise your rooms for rent (which is OK) or show everybody how bad your spelling is (which is not OK).
There is a difference between "your" and "you're", not to mention "dont". For a Brit, these things say a lot, don't they???

@ Pammy

I am sure your lucky star will guide you & your horses to the green pastures of your dreams.
But what if the horses guide you?

Your input couldn't be more welcome. It summarizes the situation down here too and explains why I wish to meet QUALITY expats.
I appreciate not only the contents, but also the brevity and clarity of thought.

TO ALL THE SCARED FOLKS:
You won't catch me here again. When you don't know what you missed, that's OK.
