Good one Nabeel. But are you sure Mrs Patak hasn't already got a
honorary gong from some accountancy or marketing outfit?

Remember how Blair turned up to the dinner of Britan's 200 richest
Asians and praised them for their contribution to the UK economy through
the cash and carry business? Gnnnnngg.

Wonder which vote-winning sari Cherrie will wear this year.

On another note - Gurinder Chadda's flick 'Bend it like Beckham' has
been renamed 'Falling in Love with Beckham' here in Japan. 

be well
John
