How many pieces of flair was he wearing?

Look on the bright side - I was dragged into TGI's in Abu Dhabi last year and not only did they wear silly hats etc. but they didn't serve beer....

I think our silly-dressed waitress got quite fed up with me asking for Heinekin by the end....

We've recently been taken over by honeywell who have a very significant amount of indian employees ... and we are being pressurised to move work out there. Trouble is, its all technical work, so I cant help be think that there will be trouble ahead from the inevitable slaphead/raghead/whatever syndrome of their unfamiliarity with things we take for granted. There are already an annoying number of conference-calls with most of the time taken on re-explaining things ar trying to slow them down so we can understand them :lol
