Baila, the deputising one on all affairs foreign arrived at the Summit with the bitter half when they were stopped for frisking. When the not so polite security types queried as to who the lady was from Baila, in the most unceremonious manner he said "mage hora gani" and sent the bitter half back home in a sign of protest. Aha!

More antics from the Summit. Since the officially designated ushers went missing at the Memorial Hall, the invitees were left to their own devices. Now an official inquiry has been launched to find out who was at fault. Kshe-Nuka the former high commissioning one in Ol’ Blighty who was in charge of the official arrangements has a peculiar explanation, she says that her ushers were flicked by someone else at the ministry for some other purpose. Chikaaay!

It seems that kohila and Ma-hinder go together. When Musa the Mill and Ass-Were went to hand over a wedding invite recently, they were asked to stay over for lunch at the Araliya Abode and lo and behold there was kohila galore. And the Presidente very generously offered Ass-Were a mouthful to keep his temper in check. Sweet no!

There is no doubt that Kadi did yeomen service to the country. But things sure can turn funny. When Mangy, a former ministering angel of affairs foreign attended a funeral, there was Sue-Gandi, the only difference, the former ministering type had but one security chap and the lady had an entourage courtesy the state. Hmmm...

The first family is living it up, even the extended clan. There was Baa-sil’s daughter who had landed in Paradise isle and there was no customs, no immigration, no nothing. She did not even enter the arrivals lounge, a chopper on the tarmac took the lady off as soon as she landed. So there!
