How come Dad has a different accent from the son??? They're both British aren't they?

If they are Father and Son it would make sense as the Father would have been born in India and the Son would have been born in Britain, so the accents would be different.

Damn it Bora! Has my time on DF been totally wasted??? They aren't British! Neither one of them!

LOL if that doesn't bring Shafique back, then I fear he has been detained at Her Majesty's Pleasure.

Anyways the Indians are now claiming Santa is Indian.

Sage, what happened to your sense of humor???

Talking of Indians, is this the most sycophantic piece ever published as a letter here ?

He is talking about the Amerian guy jailed for using profanities when dealing with an efficient DU Customer service agent.


The article Jailed expat learns the hard way: no cursing (April 9) described how an American expatriate used profanity on the phone and in a text message to a du representative and was subsequently arrested. I come from a democratic country which allows tremendous freedom of expression, movement and action.

But this does not mean that this freedom is a licence to harm another human being or cause discomfort. Democracy is "let and let live" and just as we would like to be treated by others in the best way possible, we must also do the same to others. But some people coming to this part of the world conveniently forget this. If people can remember the old saying, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do", and try to emulate the way the nationals speak and behave with foreigners, it would be a great lesson to learn.

Apart from language, manners and etiquette, all must learn to dress decently in public. Freedom does not give us licence to go berserk. We must thank God that we are in a country where many turn a blind eye most of the time. It's only when "enough-is-enough" that we run into trouble.

From my current experiences with DU I would say they could make a Saint swear. But I will bear this in mind when I visit the JBR shop next week. Thanks BBR.

Someone sent me an e-mail with either a tape or video about Jesus being Indian (not married at 22, living at home, etc. etc.) it is funny...can't find it...
