Well this week has been interesting. I work with a girl who is having problems with her partner. What sort of problems? Domestic violence. And last night it came to a head.
They were living together in a private room but the girl had enough and they both moved into the backpacker dorms of the hotel. Last night they both (including myself) were getting tiddly (tried to find some cheap whiskey but had to make do with vodka and coke). Basically while a group of us (including the bloke) were playing cards the girl came to get a cigerette, he wouldn't give them to her so she took them. The force that he pulled her back and grabbed her arm was shocking! Later on in the evening aparently he went on to punch her in the head. WTF!?!? Bouncers got involved but for some reason he is still allowed in the hotel- I would of kicked him out ages ago!
This morning, to show that he 'felt bad' he presented to her a bottle of lemonade.
The mind boggles!
The really distrubing thing about this guy is that he came to apologies to everyone who witnessed the aggression very politly. Scary that he could turn the nice button on and off so easily.
Ladies it is simple, like my Mother told me years ago, if someone is violent to you GET OUT! No second chances. If they can do it once they can do it again!

ReplyDeleteJust back from Manc. both your Dad and Kat are full of cold, aches and pains. I'm just full of aches and pains. Still it was nice to see your sis and the new flat. Very posh, but not madly comfortable yet.. needs more furniture.
