Hi everyone

Just a few more holiday snaps from India,
This a family that performed nearly everyday, and then came round to collect a few rupees
Pat abd I went for a meal, this is steak, baked potato with a pepper sauce, it was absolutely delicious.
Two boys we made friend with on the beach, all the kids that work on the beach have a sad tale to tell, but these two were special.
The one in the pink is called Raj, Father died two years ago and it's left to him to support his Mother and four other siblings.
The one in yellow is called Manju, and as gay as you can be, really funny, even walks like a woman.
But they were really lovely and it's a very hard life for them, it makes you appreciate all you have at home.

Now we are back it's cold and Del, Pat and myself have got to get going on the allotment as we have two.
I will keep you updated on our progress.
Love to you all xxxxxxxx

more holiday pictures

This is Del not being cool. Pat bought him a MP3 player and Roy downloaded the music for him.
He kept singing at the top of his voice and jigging about, I would'nt mind but he does'ntt even know any of the words to the songs he's listening to.Pat's peeking round the bathroom door wondering whats going on.
This is one of our favorite waiters, David, He cannot do enough for you, he work extremly long hours, but has always got a smile.
Pat and I enjoying a mango juice, while we are waiting for our dinner, curry, curry and more curry
The beach was amazing, far as the eye could see. The sea was very rough, so we never went in, as it knocked quite a few people over.
This is a very common sight on the beach, the cows eat anything.
The beach shacks put their rubbish in black bags, that gets collected late afternoon, but if the cows come along before they have been picked up, the cows break into the bags and eat the rubbish.
I'll put more pictures on tomorrow.






Holiday Photos


Roy has just given another lesson on how to include photos on the blog, as I forgot how.
The above photos were taken on Valentines day, the men are putting up bunting for the evening,



As you can see we are all enjoying the evening, all the ladies got a rose and we also had champagne.
They had live music and lots of dancing, a brilliant evening was had by all.

I love this photo, as it shows how alike we are, more like twins
These are our friends we made the last couple of times that we been to India, Alan and Barbara, who come from Somerset,
I thought you were supposes to go brown in the sun (ha ha) this is Pat and I having a pamper afternoon, trying to get rid of all the wrinkles (it did'nt work) we giggled so much, I think we even more laughter lines than we had already.
This is Del being cool.
