The first time I went to Bali was in the early nineties and there were no mini marts or supermarkets everywhere like there are now. I got, how should I put this delicately, an unexpected monthly visitor if you know what I mean! I had no tampons with me so went in search of some. I went into a small shop on Legian st and had a quick scan around but could not see any. The young man asked me what I was looking for. I told him Tampons, blank look, then I said Meds, Tampax etc, still blank look. So I then explained "You know, ladies things, for every month" still blank look. I then explained white things with string at the end. He then had a knowing look, raced off and promplty came back with a box of candles haha!!!!
