One would think you would have some surplus cash after such a prestigious international cricketing career Brian Lara ??
Lived many years in India. And all Indian boys get a cricket bat for their first birthday. Back in the days of film....it't celluloid, similar to plastic, days of film cameras. And EVERY single time I put a film in for processing they would ask in perfect english..."And what is your good name Sir?"
As soon as I said "brian"......they'd beam out "Ohhhhh, Brian Lara". So in India I'm known as brian lara. I'm the closest they get to the real thing.
It's a bloody dirty disgusting stinking place but I love it to death and the people are superb.....if you can look past the socio-economic disparity and the attitudes of the "haves" toward the "have not's".
Wander66 and HG02 are sincerely sorry for the thread drift....probably.
