Do whatever you like with your dong in Vietnam
Tuesday June 26th, 2007

I have discovered this week that I have a very poor sense of humour. For the new Travel Money Maximiser, in the press release about it, the site article and this week’s email (which I’m going through as we speak), I have included the sentence:

“So whether you want to eat out in colons in Costa Rica, use ringgits for phone calls from Malaysia or do whatever you like with you dong in Vietnam….”

And every time I read it, even at the 20th reading, I still laugh. So not only am I laughing at a poor gag, but I’m laughing repeatedly at my own joke… ah the shame.
