I would have thought they would keep this private and not for discussion for gossips, if it is subject to discussion for gossip then I am astounded in why there is a need for it.

Did they smell as well? Foreign people smell don't they?

No he doesn't have a beard.
You had better consult Jackytoo, she will tell you some typical Muslim and Hindu names, so that you can tell the difference.
Facial feature differences are not always obvious, but she can have a go.:D
Sarcasm aside, names will certainly tell you their religion.
(There are indigenous doctors at the surgery also.)

Yes some do smell!!! Those particularly from Bengal who use a lot of mustard oil in cooking. Some people (not all) excrete this in their sweat.
Non Bengalis don't like this smell.:ohmy:

There are limits to personal info. Look up lists of Doctors at hospital or surgeries and you will get a sample of names.

Personal info > Really, but you knowing and posting religion of your doctors is beyond that ?

Ok then I have to believe that your original post about your doctors religions is not only bizzare but complete bullshit.

Of course though It is perfectly ok for you to use Google to disprove us in what we have alleged ?

Not theirs, but examples, Kumar is a very common Hindu name, Hamid is a Muslim name, many Sikhs add Singh to their names, what is so strange about knowing any persons religion from the subcontinent, their names will make it obvious????

I think actually you must know this, I presume you are having a joke???

All this stuff about different Factions of Indians being friends side by side. You can fool some of the people some of the time but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time whatever. It's all there on the internet folks do not take internet trolls at their face value:thumbdown:

Come on, fess up, they don't even mix in Leicester do they, your Muslim friends are in your dreams!

If you look for extremes you'll find them...
NY write up , used a base truth, and then went cherry picking.Missed out alot of
Street, town, suburb history.
1970s, probably more racial tensions in discos between West indians and Indians/Pakistanis, than white locals. There were the odd scuffles, white locals,
against either WI, Indian,or Pakistanis, often territorial, sometimes ethnic.
Sometime confusing for hard 'working estate' lads going to the dance local,
and watch 2 or 3 coloured factions having a go at each, and calling each other 'BBs'
When Leicester lads went to Nottingham or even skeggie, whites fought together
with their coloured neighbours, for the honour of their city.
Youngsters, had their rumbles at Weekend, probably then worked or shared a teapot,
with the same people, in the week . Dont know now, but Muslims, Hindus, Sihks, jews, Cretiens,Yugos- catholic, orthodox and muslim, did get on together, did mix.
Extremism, too much hard work, temples and mosques did open their doors, for
midweek debate, and get to know nights.Racism of course there was, through all
Levels of society.

In India with all their riots and yes even in Jammu &Kashmir,
20-30 years ago they mixed ,shared buildings private and business.Markets and
Local auto hardware shopping areas(outskirts of town) mixed, shared and made exchanges, used each others shops.Very importantly helped each other in daily needs
and at times of need, more probably than one would see in Europe.
A older muslim friend of mine in Lahore-Pakistan lost their young grandmother unexpectantly,then the mother (wife) suddenly took ill ,their neighbours, 2 sihk, and a family of Hindus, were around immediately offering their help..

Too many posters submise too many things, then decide thats how things ALWAYS
are and work

It's all very strange, then even call you a liar now if you try and tell them you have any experience other than fish and chips, roast beef and White Anglo Saxon Britain, you know, like it should be!!!!

Yes, jacky has definitely changed for the worse of late. I hope there's nothing wrong.:(
