Grrrrrrrrrrrr, am I ready to pull my hair out , or am I ready to do Hara kiri , or do I wanna kill someone ……. Too many thoughts that have crossed my mind since the afternoon!!!!
We went off for the farewell ceremony of the Lord Lieutenant of Greater Manchester by the Asian Community!! Reached early , checked the hall & saw it was a sit down types & expected the works. And were we disappointed!!! Ek toh all the Mayors in this region wear some gold medallion necklace of sorts, which separates them from the regular junta!! The whole programme was a one man show & felt it was some family affair, the way the presentations were made …. Didn’t know , whether I should , laugh or cry !!!The food( Indian) was pathetic, the beer was …… the service … less said the better. To top that , khana peena kept happening while the speakers spoke, while the cultural bit (dances by the local dance school, without a stage , which meant more than half the people cudn’t see!!) was happening ……. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! The epitome of uncivilized behaviour was the fact that the Master of ceremonies , started to thank people while one of the dances was still on …….!!!! Havent come across such a badly organized programme for the longest time!!!Why for , apni befkufi ka padarshan karte hain ye log …!!! The desi angrez definitely need more than a lesson from us Desi’s …. Bharat rocks for sure!!!!
If it wasn’t for the fact that Jeje, that is , Dr.B.C.Das , was one of the special invitee’s & speaker, considering he has been honored the MBE by the Queen herself & the people here really hold him in high esteem for the work he is doing with & for the Asian senior citizens, we would have walked out!
Highlight today , which gave us all a reprive was the fact , that for a while there, Shaun became khanti Oriya , didn’t understand English , only Oriya!!! Ladka sahi raste ja raha hai!!!;-)
