Well i can tell you as an indian that there are many nicer things than tikka massala. Today for instance I breakfasted on idli fry then at lunch I dined on a vegetable thali. Tonight I will have string hoppers which is a very nice Sri Lankan dish.

Have you had your cholesterol levels checked, Chetty ?

Today is the festival that celebrates the bond between brothers and sisters. In India it is normal to wear a bracelet called a rakhi. It is tied by the sister on the brothers wrist- though as my sister Sarita is in India and I'm in Aldershot she couldn't tie me this year

Doesn't Swastika have any sisters who could help? That'd be close enough Shirley?

Sounds an excellent tradition. That is the prob with us Brits, we don't have nearly enough completely pointless rituals these days. I am going to start Waspy Sunday when everyone has to put jam out for wasps as a symbol of our ties with nature.

I've had one of them Lidl breakfast-fry-up-on-a-tray meals. I wasn't that impressed.

In this country we call it In-cest. More of a rural activity these days. Well done anyway, never diss your cultural background.

How do you catch them?

I find that when you creep up to where they are making a noise they go quiet, and then start up again ten feet away.

A bacon sandwich is the traditional local dish.

PS have you booked those Chubby Brown tickets yet?

Chicken Tikka Masala
Sunday Roast Beef
Pork Pies
Devon Custard
Heinz Organic Ketchup
Decent quality Organic Pork Sausages

all must be integrated as standard culture before I'd be interested..

Is this you preparing us for our inevitable integration into Indian society once we have finally moved all our jobs out there?

On the plus side, whoever has created this incredibly rubbish sockpuppet, is at least learning something about a foreign culture in the process.

Every cloud has a silver lining.

I don't have any brothers or sisters. Can I just go to the pub instead?
