    Pelt Declan Rice with plastic water bottles.

    That's one way to deal with our corners
    "Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

    Fa la la la la, la la la la
    Off with handbrakes, on with throttles
    Fa la la la la, la la la la
    Nice and easy, wasn't boring
    Fa la la la la, la la la la
    Both Big Kai and the skipper scoring
    Fa la la la la, la la la la
    Fa la la la la, la la la la

    I might have had a little drink, you know.

    Cheers, Red.

    Ganpati bless.

    Think I got my first ever Indian e-Visa today for my best mate's wedding on Feb 18. Would rather we didn't have to play the second leg of the knockout qualifiers on that day.

    I did one last year. Doesn't stop them making you fill out an old school.landing card and then asking you as series of stupid questions at passport control.

    Indian bureaucracy is comically inefficient I would probably find it charming if I hadn't just staggered off a long flight

    Great.

    Not as stupid as that old US one where they asked if you're a Nazi war criminal or if you plan to destabilise the constitution, I hope?

    Oh, God no. Nobody is as absurd as the Americans

    First time I went to America we got turned over at customs on the way in. I swear they were minutes away from.doing a controlled explosion on my mate's bottle of brown sauce. They just didn't believe it was food

    True, dat.

    Would have loved to have seen them blow up a bottle of brown sauce.

    I know what you mean about Indian bureaucracy. But when the glw was coming back last November, her check in bag got buzzed by the machine and she didn't know what it was. Took ages and then they found that it was the battery in a vape. {Vapes are illegal in India - too many jobs in the tobacco industry - but they just took it off her and threw it. They didn't care.}

    She then realised she'd lost her phone, so they took her to the police room. She explained in Hindi that she must have left it the other side before passports etc. The cop called another one and explained in Hindi what had happened. She could understand what he was saying and felt proud because the first cop had obviously understood what she'd said perfectly given he was able to impart the same info to the second chap.

    They sent out a search party and found it in the bogs and got it back to her.

    I've told her she's got to get into cricket. They love it when a sexy gori {white person - female} speaks good Hindi to them cos it shows she loves their country and culture. Now she just needs to be able to discuss whether Jaiswal will be as good as Virat in his prime, or whether when Bumrah bowls in England this summer, he'll be the best Dukes ball bowler now Jimmy's retired.

    About 15-20 years ago, we were in Pushkar and went to the dealer's. His cousin opened the door and said matey would be back in about 15-20 mins and we could wait with him if we wanted. He was on the bed watching the cricket and we joined him.

    Harbhajan Singh was bowling. The glw sees his turban and asks if he's a Sikh. We say yes. She then says "He's bowling spin, isn't he?" We say yes. She asks if he's any good and we say "Bhaji? Yup, he's good."

    She then says we have a Sikh spinner, don't we? Yup, Monty Panesar, I reply.

    She then asks "Are all Sikhs good spinners?" Me and the Indian lad look at each other, consider it, and say "Yeah, pretty much."

    Now she could have that conversation in Hindi as a sexy gori, she'd become the ultimate Indian male platonic fantasy.

    Well you can certainly make sure she watches Bumrah this summer. Fantastic bowler

    They stole my vapes coming out of Calicut. When they pulled it out of the bag and asked what it was I said it was a multifunctional lithium battery attachment. He says 'so, it isnt a vape then?'.....

    Technically, without the pod (Which was hidden elsewhere in the bag) it is just a lithium battery. He calls a second guy over who accuses me of lying and says 'we've worked here for 15 years, do you think were' stupid'.... I said I'd rather not answer that right now

    Confiscated the lot. I will give the bloke this.... he immediately spotted the two vapes, the separate pods, and the disposable I had cleverly disguised by putting a pen lid on it!

    But my issue with them generally is that they have all these rules but are too chaotic to enforce them. I'm in the incident book at Delhi airport 4 times for having lighters on me. It is literally a book. What is the point of that???

    At least in Singapore they actually enforce all these stupid rules and have the infrastructure to do so.

    What? You can't have lighters any more? {Though I've been vaping not smoking since c.2011.}

    Why didn't you put the vapes in check-in? That's what I'm gonna do. Not like you can vape in the airport.

    Though when they were still legal in India, I'd have my vapes in the pocket and vaped in the plane's bogs.

    The reason why vapes are banned is that almost 50m Indians work in the baccy and fags industry.

    Indian Tobacco Co. {ITC} is 28% owned by state-run insurance companies.

    So that's why they can't kill the fag business and have everyone using foreign made vapes and liquids. It would see up to 50m people lose their jobs and people's pensions to fall. And that's electoral suicide.

    {Same reason they won't have supermarkets despite 50% of the food rotting between field and shops. The 30m who'd lose their jobs would vote against any party suggesting it. Now yes, a different 30+m would get jobs in the supermarkets and supply chain, and the consumers would get lower prices. But no-one's gonna vote on the chance they'll get a job, or the chance that veg becomes a bit cheaper. But the 30m who'd lose their jobs are a vote bank no party can ignore.}

    ITC used to be Imperial Tobacco Co - that's why you have brands like Wills, Goldflake and Capstan Navy Cut. I think the Indian state brought the Indian part of their business after independence like they got the Morris Oxford factory shipped over to make the hindustan Ambassador car, and the Royal Enfield factory to make the Bullet motorbike.

    When we bought our green leather 3 seat sofa from a 2nd hand shop, he had this 100 year old metal Gold Flake advert {maybe 1m x 50cm.} He wouldn't take any more money off the sofa when the glw went to get it, but as I'd talked about the Gold Flake metal advert thing when we'd been in the shop together - we both smoked Gold Flake in India - he said she could have that. It's in the Garden on a wall.

    Will tell the glw what you said about Jasprit. Cheers for that.
