Read this a while ago..
Scientists have pinpointed a reason why people with Indian ancestry may be more prone to weight problems.
They have found this group is more likely to carry a gene sequence linked to an expanding waist line, weight gain and type 2 diabetes.
The sequence, discovered by a team led by Imperial College London, is carried by 50% of the population – but is a third more common in Indian Asians.
This is depressing..
Then I came across this
Half of Britons have said hello to fewer than half a dozen people in their street in the last week, a survey for BBC Breakfast has suggested.
But one in ten of those questioned for the programme by ICM Research spoke to no-one.
More than a fifth (22%) of Britons believe that the UK’s neighbourhoods are becoming less friendly.
However, the survey does suggest that about a quarter of people (24%) will have said hello to anything up to 10 neighbours in a week.
I think we are much better in this sphere.. so much so that the neighbors would not mind becoming family.. keeping both good and the bad in mind.. buhahaha !!
