My newest fav tv show

Meet The Natives - USA
NatGeo
Meet the Natives follows two groups of men from the South Pacific island of Tanna – one venturing to the UK and the other travelling to the U.S. – to observe the natives of these exotic lands. From cattle roundups and snowball fights in Montana, to bars with drag queens in Manchester, and traditional fox hunting and a meeting with England's Prince Philip, these men experience some of the best – and most unusual – activities that each country has to offer. They provide a unique spin on life in the UK and America, filtering what they see through their own experiences and offering their perspective on homelessness, traditional gender roles, livestock artificial insemination, and more.

Beefed up security at top hotels

Was at the Taj West End in Bangalore, the day before.

Apart from the compulsory frisking & checking you car at the (closed) gate & screening of your baggage at the entrance, noticed an interesting phenomenon.

If you happen to go to the restrooms, an attendant will courteously offer to take your laptop bag (if any) and dutifully watch you over as you take a leak or do whatever!

So much for hospitality & security, mixed!
