At best it`s a very poor generalisation littered with bad grammar, although I do agree with the Man United top bit :p

Milwart was not the **** calling you anything! Read again and you will see Mrs M refers to his wife. Your occasional posts apart from being nice to the ultra-bigot Milward, have shown a lack of humour so for now will not consider you the ultimate judge of whats funny or not if you dont mind.
Will however instruct Milwart (the Grate) not to respond to any of your charming, informative and truly, truly memorable posts..............
Your humble servant

Here here Mr J.Five Esq! :thumbsup::thumbsup: what about a bit of live & let live!

Were I a perfectly reasonable fat bloke with a crew cut, manchester united shirt & tattoos - I'd be highly offended by some recent comments on here - as it happens, I'm not all of the above - but if someone wants to be & is - then to be quite honest, they're perfectly bloody entitled to be & it's bugger all to do with anyone else! How they behave & conduct themselves in public is a different matter altogether!

From today's Times of India
 
I've deleted a little bit of this article in the hope that the mods don't pull the post for copywright violation:


Panaji: A Delhi-Goa air ticket on November 29 may cost you anything between Rs 5,000 and Rs 12,000. But a charter tourist arriving from Manchester, UK, on the same day with a return ticket and 21 nights stay thrown in will have to shell out only Rs 17,000.
“As there has been a drop in the number of tourists from the UK, we have cut down the charter flight rates by 25%. This discount will start immediately and continue till the end of the season,” said Ernest Dias, vice president, Sita travels.

“The rates in 2007 were between £400 (Rs 29,600) and £1,000 (Rs 74,000) for charter flights from the UK,” said Dias.
Rates during the peak season—from December 25, 2008 to January 2009—have been fixed between £556 (Rs 41,144) and £1,700 (Rs 1,25,800). To these a fuel surcharge of £20 (Rs 1,480) is added. The packages are for a stay ranging from a week to three weeks in Goa.
Data available with the foreigner’s registration office reveals that the state receives tourists from nearly 125 nations, with the majority coming from the UK (60%), followed by Russia (20% to 25%), Sweden and Germany. Not more than 500 Israelis visit the state annually. However, till date 27 charter flights from UK to Goa have brought in just 7,680 British tourists.
“Due to the recession people are not spending on travel. There has been a dip, but the market will recover,” said Aloo Gomes Periera, chief operating officer, charters, Thomas Cook India Ltd.

Panaji: Apart from British tourists, there has also been a decline in the number of Russian tourists arriving in the state this year.
Sources at Dabolim airport revealed that Ural airlines, a charter flight operating from Russia, has discontinued its operations to the state.
The first Ural charter landed in Goa on November 9 with just 28 passengers, though it had a seating capacity of about 200 passengers. They were slotted to arrive again on November 23, but have cancelled the flight.
“Global recession and a decrease in people’s spending power has affected the Russian market and led to a drop in 25% to 30% Russian tourists this season,” said Goa advocate for the consul general of the Russian Federation in Mumbai, Vikram Varma.
The trend doesn’t spell good news for the state of Goa, which had seen a steady increase in foreign tourists from 2.5 lakh in 1997 to about 4 lakh in 2007, a majority of who travel to Goa on charter flights.


It's still the recession that's to blame eh???????

They are just not going to wake up and smell the coffee the fact we have been called riff raff, British Dregs and told we are only want you for our money has escapes their notice.The fact that they have robbed people blind in the past with their overcharging and it is now classed as an un-safe place to go,which they are now blaming the Western world for.
The fact that the infratructure is falling apart and the gabbage situation is a health hazzard has nothing to do with the lack of tourists visiting, not to mention the corrupt Government and police.I could go on but it just makes me angry:curse::curse: When are you going to stop burying your head in th sand Goa

From The Herald ;

"The British Government has said it does not consider the right-wing Hindu groups VHP, RSS and Bajrang Dal as “terrorist” organisations, in remarks that may have political connotation.
“The UK Government does not consider the VHP to be a terrorist organisation under our law. The organisation is proscribed neither here nor in India, nor does the Indian Government classify it as a terrorist organisation”, Britain’s Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Ministry of Justice, Lord Bach said.":confused:

Has anyone here had any experiences or comments about these organisations ?
