//He was enraged and looked this close to invading Poland as is the way of his people when pissed.//
I swear, I genuinely & very innocently misinterpreted that - especially in context of the preceding few lines.
Have a good trip. (No, I don't mean fall nicely :P)

nodding in agreement about the Gulf News bit.
Please give the low-down on marrying into Punjabi families :)
Proud to be a mallu on a flight. My humble beginnings. ME:"I'll have the white wine please" Stewardess:"How old are you?" Me:"18 ( i was 16)" Stewardess:"all right. Just this one drink okay?" Me:"Yes Ma'am!" I had 3 wines in the plane and got 2 Red LAbel Mini's 'for free' ;)

U must be thankful that the german did not get up to take a leak every 5 minutes. My co passenger absolutely had to go every 5 minutes :( and thankfully no kids on ur flight, no!!!! Just wait till you have a 5 year old sitting next to you saying"Uncle, do you what my highest score on Guitar Hero is?"

be glad you didn't have a kid who asked you every five minutes - "Uncle do you know what my highest score on Guitar Hero is" . Even worse the Mother German taking a leak break every other 5!!Bladders and Pregnancy are strange bedfellows!

Sidin, two things -
1) Brannagh just won the BAFTA for the Wallander role. 2) Nobody says 'ciao' in the UK. That's Italy. It's all 'cheers, mate' and 'ta, luv' around here.

Hey Sidin,
you're back and how....! This is a vintage 'Whatay' post :-)) I have no clue how I missed out on your book announcement. Many hearty congrats & I was seriously hoping for an autographed copy - but looks like you've shifted base to Delhi !??
And thanks to Kahlua above, I know that you turn a year older today. Wish you a splendid birthday :-)
Eagerly awaiting Part II....

Ahh man.... I love the UK... Don't bother visiting every single city... If you have been to one u have been to them all... London is a must... and If I may recommend, check out the Lake District.... a very beautiful place... Don't miss that...
Have fun dude!!

Im surprised the german needed three invites to get pissed off. one way to rub it in, is to read that manutd mag screaming 99- nou camp- munchin munich, without the fear of invasion. U shd get a 2 seater, by the window, next time around.

Oh no.. Not another travelogue in parts :)
The odds for a part II coming out anytime soon are dismal.. But then, I'm sure you're aware of that
