'Blecks'
A bit off topic, but when I had my first hip replacement operation some years ago I was told on the morning of the operation that I wan't getting the knock-out treatment, but an epidural - which filled me with a degree of horror (a longer story)
I was visited by the anesthetist who was a South African white who began ranting about "The Blecks"
I was about to launch into an argument, but thought the better of it when I realised that it probably wasn't a good idea to fall out with your anesthetist on the morning of a major operation]
Bobad
The Bedouins of Israel fare no better under the administration there
An argument for elsewhere, no doubt
