    You can only get Chinese and 'Indian' around here - all that other stuff is deemed unnecessary. The Indians are pretty universally Pakistani, though with a high proportion of the people have come from Kashmir originally then it's perhaps best left ambiguous.
    How uncivilised!

    Where I am they have fun pretending they are from different places when they are educated and brought up in London. Most are even born in the UK - so they have to employ a chef from overseas...

    Just as long as you remembered to feed the fish to the cat, and not the other way round...

    Not much tonight. Maybe unload the van and get some stuff I do not need until next Summer put away, play with Mini and Micro MUN and put them to bed and then curl up with Mrs MUN and watch TV.

    Tomorrow:

    Take the kids to gymnastics, get a new tyre for the van. Play with the children, take them to do something somewhere. Do some work on the RPG I am running for a friend's birthday. Do some work for the father's support group that I run.

    Sunday:

    Take the family to church and zone out whilst the service is going on. Maybe do some work on the RPG.

    Pack for the show I am doing next week in the Czech Republic. We will be fighting, parading and shouting a lot between drinking awesome beer and eating awesome food whilst being treated with bemusement by the Tabor locals who are suprised anyone from the UK comes to their festival.

    You?
