Hi all!!
Happy Chinese New year (yes, I know I am a day late)!!
As well as Chinese New year and Australia day, yesterday was Republic day in India....excitement all round!! With this in mind, I had planned to watch the annual parade up Rajpath (opposite India gate) . Unfortunatly, as it was a National Holiday, I ended up sleeping in and missing the parade!! Oh well, I got to see it on tele later on so I guess all wasn't lost....
Anyway, otherwise, little has changed...no exciting tours to tell you folks about as work's taking up my weekdays (one week left though!!) and the weekends are used trying not to get ripped off in the markets!...a feet which is close to impossible for a foreigner, as I learnt that even Indians from other states get ripped off in Delhi if they don't speak Hindi!! Oh well, it's all part of the fun filled experience I guess!!
Oh yeah, I nearly forgot, the cook/housekeepers brother offered to come back to the UK with me to do my cooking and cleaning....an interesting proposition but one which I none the less declined in my best combination of pictures and sign language!!....I'm not sure how uni would react if I turned up in my first year with an Indian cook!!!!!!!!
Best wishes to you all from a sunny Delhi!!
Chris
