Leon just has that terrible NE accent 

Is he a knight that says NE?

I'm an ignorant colonial, remember.

Don't sell yourself short, FK!

You're an ignorant post-colonial, surely. 

Nah......It's probably the accent you've picked up in Bangkok, Alexander.

And you aren't a colonoal, Thialand is one the few bits West Europeans didna grab.....

We Africans are grabbing it. In about five years, they'll all be speaking Afrikaans here!

Bodwerised Dutch

Which will make for most of sub-Sarahan Africa speaking Chinese then.

I think the saddest thing in African history is that there wasn't a massive influx of Ming colonists.

If anyone ever dares to "touch base" with me I will be straight onto HR . . .

I wouldn't mind my  ex-boss touching base with me.

Just a tiny trading presence down the Swahili coast.

The only verified Asian settlement in Africa that I'm aware of is Madagascar; where the locals exhibit a close match with Mahajapit Javan DNA.

ONE of the nice things about making the wee men for Leon, is that  he's never once descended to this kind of stuff. 

I think if we take a helicopter view of things then there might be some low-hanging fruit that we can prioritise for future empowerment.  With that done we can drill down into the logistics of the situation and see if it's going to be scalable, allowing us to really leverage our assets and take it to the next level. 

In short, more sculpty-sculpty, casty-casty...

It's a pity bromide laced tea is no longer available, Phil. What a nice present that would be for Orcs as a thank you for all of these nice band-aids he sent you.
