What part of this festival do we get to throw rubbish in the Parramatta river or is that a different festival?

I saw one of the festivals last year and I was not allowed to say anything because if I did it was racist and the people I was with got embarass by my words

I didn't know picking up your rubbish after having a good time was racist till that moment

If you go to India, you will not be surprised by this behaviour...rubbish is actually the most hygienic thing they leave for others to clean up. Count yourself lucky.

You should take some cricket balls and go play down the park with the locals.
Even if you don’t like cricket, just for the experience.

I like Indian food here (unless it's from a chain restaurant like Miss India) but didn't really like it in India (Delhi and the Himalayas). Too bland for my liking, the south uses more spice I believe.
