Re: India
That was in India.
But there are not so many Indians there now, most have gone to UK, Oz and many other civilized countries.
But be thankful, without them no Indian chippes.

Re: India
We do have a lot of them down here in Melbourne but they fit in with society, work hard and generally are very friendly people.
Had a couple work for me at the Uni, great workers and very outgoing.
