Oops, not being very clear there I guess.

Two separate points in a short post
1) Bear in mind some posters find the abbreviation Paki offensive
2) Britain's Pakistanis in general are friends and family. At least the ones I know. The local shops and restaurants in my area are run by Indians, so I can't comment on heinous Pakistani crimes of retail discourtesy
