Had a new experience this morning on a tram in Melbourne. I was standing up and noticed a girl near me flinching, muttering and going pale, staring at my bag. When I looked at it there was a very large shiny insect sitting on it...I had no idea what it was but tried unsuccessfully to knock it off. Then another girl attacked it more vigorously, followed by a third passenger(female again) who delivered the final blow by crushing it under her heel. At this point, someone mentioned the word cockroach. By the way, none of the men even stirred. I will be checking out my bag pretty carefully from now on..yuck!

Nice! Thanks for the warning. Have only seen the large ones in my garage as yet, and they still fear me! Had loads of little ones in our flat when we first got it, but the man with the spray sorted that. Will be checking my bag now (and my shoes, kids hats...)
