Ive been to India and whilst most of what you mention is true, I cant help but think that spending one week in Delhi was too long for you and heading down south might have allowed you to enjoy the beauty of Southern India! You either love india or hate it , I’m a lover of all things Indian as a result of my visit even though, I do understand people whom think otherwise. In my view you were sceptical about going so from the outset you didn’t start of with a positive outlook and maybe you were just homesick!!!

Hi All
Thanks again for such wonderful descriptions of your travels – all the effort you put into your writing is so much appreciated. I got around to reading about Delhi last weekend – especially about the rubbish – and then in Sundays Age there was an article about Dehli attempting to get rid of it by placing a ban on plastic bags – apparently even carrying a plastic bag will be an offence with large penalties. But it sounds like there needs to be a whole new culture change to make effect. Regarding the toilet museum – my son says it should be a punishable offence to put so many puns into such a short section!! Keep safe and enjoy

my fingers are currently crossed that you will in fact make it out of india, which here reads just like it always does (most recently in ‘the white tiger’, last year’s booker prize winner, set in delhi). i was thinking of that book, and of ’slumdog millionaire’, which does need to be seen on the big screen, and in your current state of satiation, obviously not now. when you’re swallowed up in delhi it must be hard to remember that it’s merely a corner of the vast carpet that is india.
good to see you didn’t waste the cistern chapel’s word play invitation. very funny!

Hi Guys, long time getting around to reading this blog. As always, a great read. Been busy, last 2 weeks, have a new house guest, a 20 yo Swiss lad. New experience for me, but so far enjoying it.
Luv, David.

What an amazing feel you give us …I can taste and smell all the aromas(smells)…so vivid.
Last night we saw Slumdog Millionaire…I guess all of those images are fresh in my mind still.
Enjoy your travels, love reading your blogs
Stay safe
