Well, its finally happened. The World famous Dili Club has been attacked. The watering hole we all know and love (albeit in its new reincarnation opposite Leader) was attacked tonight by rock throwing chaps chanting things along the lines of 'Australia out, etc etc etc.'
The imdomitable owner and mine host, Flip, when called for a quote and to check that he was all right said 'Little bastards, threw rocks for about 10 minutes then f**ked off'. My God I love him.
Thats all folks, otherwise all pretty quiet.....

I'm checking the morning news over here in fair America and see no reports from either you, Dili-gence, UNPOL or the press. Do I take that as "no news is good news' or have you all gotten the hell out of that madhouse? Daughter is sadly closing down her office, packed and awaiting word of the imminent evacuation. Damn those scrotes. Worried Mama
Dear FOS,
When did the Dili Club move? Is it in the Phil's Bar and Grill Building?
Quite a shame, all this hooliganism. When will the East Timorese learn? In reading some of the comments to the blogs, it sounds like the consensus is that they'll never learn.
"Save us from ourselves" seems to be the Timorese mantra.
Have things quieted down now that Reinado is no longer under threat of attack?
It saddens me to talk to some of my NGO co-workers, who at one time were described as Bleeding-Heart Tree Huggers. Now to talk to them, they sound like hardened military who think all the trouble-makers should be shot on sight. Amazing what 18 months in East Timor can do to a person's perspective on the local population.
I hope that you and your better half keep your heads down, least you be mistaken for those horrible Aussie invaders from the South!
