Last night
So an early flight on Saturday morning meant that last night was the last night out of my stay. Continue Reading →
Waiting to hear the results
Although this photo is a little outside the right order of things, i thought I would include it anyway. Continue Reading →
No photos
Today is the first day for about 2 weeks that I have not taken a photo. So instead here is one I took last night, of a tractor who’s wheel fell off in the middle of the crossroads near my hotel spilling rubble all over the road.
Tractors are pretty rubbish over here….
Failed Sari Dressing
Here i can be seen rather pathetically dressed in the yellow fabric….behind me the wheel which i rolled across the stage and pushed over. Not a good look…. Continue Reading →
Beauty Contest
For some unknown reason I was volunteered to go up on stage to supposedly judge a beauty contest. This of course was not the case at all. Continue Reading →
Jhoomlay Party

Live & Let Die
Well thats supposed to make me feel better is it?
Unsupervised excursion
The internet has been down for the last two days in the hotel. Despite promises that it will be fixed, it kept being rubbish. This annoyed me. In fact ask anyone a straight question here and you will get a totally unrealistic response. Continue Reading →

Bug-man
I was standing minding my own business in the foyer of the AOL building, when all of a sudden there was this terrifically loud lawnmower-like sound. I turned around to see a man, with a petrol-powered-insect repellent-smoke-blower. Continue Reading →
Busy day for traffic
Having sat in traffic for about 20 minutes this morning with the engine off and no A/C, I decided to make a run for it. I jumped out of the car and decided to make my way to work on foot. Continue Reading →
Working next to Coconut husks
Continuing the busy busy busy theme, here I can be seen with laptop next to a pile of empty coconuts. Continue Reading →
Lift-based work
Here I am, so busy, I even need to work while traveling between floors. The lift attendant kindly let me use his seat while being lifted between the ground floor and the first floor so I could quickly sneak in an extra IM.
Strangely it is necessary to use the lift to get to the first floor as their are no stairs unless there is a dreadful fire.
Mcdonalds
So despite having Indian curry for breakfast, lunch and dinner there are other options. Continue Reading →
Tim Meets Gabar Singh
Bizarrely some guy dressed in army uniform burst into the office yesterday and started shouting. Continue Reading →
