Welcome
This site was originally designed to appeal to Anglo-Indians worldwide however, after several years of being on-line, it appears that the majority of the Anglo Community is totally unaware of its existence.
2008 introduced a change of focus. The site will no longer be limited exclusively to that ethnic group, but will include a mixture of content that should appeal to a wider audience.
Registration (free) is not essential, but it grants a few extra privileges to the registered user. Visit the Brief Guide page where all is explained!
We hope you enjoy the site as much as we have enjoyed building it.

One of the features of this site is the ability to seamlessly run a Blog alongside the other modules. My personal 'Wordpress' Blog has gradually fallen into 'disuse', and it made sense to merge it into this website!
So, a FLOG is born!

Opium financed British rule in India
Leading Indian writer Amitav Ghosh's critically acclaimed new novel "Sea of Poppies" is set during a time when the opium trade out of India was flourishing during British rule.
The novel spans three continents and close to two centuries, and is the first in a planned historical trilogy set in the 19th century.
Ghosh, a trained anthropologist and historian with a doctorate from Oxford University, spoke to the BBC's Soutik Biswas on the colonial opium trade.
Tees Saal Baad, thirty years later, is as good a time to reminisce as any, I guess. Nostalgia strikes especially in the company of old buddies or when the drinking gets heavy. There is to it a bitter-sweetness, much like a hospitalization where the attending nurse resembles Ivana Trump. The spirit and the step become lighter and the eye mistier in the full knowledge that the good old days will never return.
I am lucky to have a washing machine now. I have never washed clothes by hand, as you know, in the former days, we always had the good old Dobhi.
