I'm still laughing....

A colleague of mine has been staying in the same hotel since he arrived in the UAE. He's a South African Indian and at breakfast this morning, the following conversation took place:

Waiter: Excuse me Sir, are you Sri Lankan?

Colleague: Ummm no. And of all the places in the world, why Sri Lanka?

Waiter: Well, Sir, you look like you could come from Sri Lanka and you eat poached eggs.

There you have it.
