The beloved samosa is facing meltdown in India. I used to enjoy this snack in when I was travelling in India, and continued savouring it in KL and here in Melbourne. I guess Delhi Belly should be avoided as much as possible, but I have not heard of anyone dying from it – just a bit of dashing between the toilet and the bed.
My routine has now settled into this pattern – I wake up a few minutes after Theresa, which is usually a little after 6am on weekdays. I’d go downstairs, fix breakfast and pack lunch for her and kiddo, and hopped onto the net to look for work and find out what’s been happening in the world the night before. Theresa comes down about 6.40pm, I have breakfast (or just a cup of coffee) with her, we both do our little quite time and she goes off to work at around 7.10am. Kiddo wakes up around 7am, comes downstairs around 7.45am, has her brekky and goes off to school around 8.05am.
I stay on the net till maybe 9am, go off to the gym, and maybe come home around noon. I continue to be on the net, watch a DVD maybe, do a little bit of housework, cook dinner and then get stoned. By 4pm kiddo gets home. By 6pm Theresa gets home and we all have dinner. We watch a little TV from around 8pm and go to bed around 10pm for Theresa and kiddo, and around 12am for me.
Of course, right through the day (till around 5pm, when I’d give up and go full on to get acquainted with Mac or any other Scot), I’d check my phone or expect to hear something from one of the numerous applications I would have made. Of course thus far, it has been down some blind alley.
“Dr Lim Chong Eu … said he had experienced it all … what Albar and his UMNO Turks had applied was a well-tested method. The police and the army held the ring while favouring the Malay rioters – usually bersilat groups, thugs and gangsters let loose to make mischief. Once passions wee aroused and enough Chinese counter-attacked, even ordinary Malays joined in. When the Chinese hit back, they were clobbered by the police and army; law and order were enforced against them, not the Malays. The result was a sullen. cowed population.”
