On the subject of women here ( a favourite of mine) i have just one simple well used phrase that quagmire from family guy does so much better than me.....giggety giggety goo!
jaipur was only a quick stop for me, i got here wednesday morning and got the overnight train to where i am now (udaipar) on friday night, partly due to me being a dope and booking the wrong day for the train station and partly due to jaipur being like a ghost town aside from the locals, there was a series of bombs here last month and its off season here
Aha!
.The weather reaches about 38 degrees during the heat of the day, people sleep on the pavements and in any shadows that they can find! Safe to say aside from the odd mad dogs and englishmen (not sure which catergory i fall into there) this place and the state of rajasthan is devoid of travellers! which has made it fun in the sense that i get much cheaper room prices, more personalised tours but less party party, which isnt a bad thing at the moment as there is plenty of time for that!
I did a whole day tour of jaipur with a bunch of indian tourists which was heavy work in the day's sun and got bitten half to death by a bunch of flies despite coating mesen in "deet". Im STILL trying to get to grips with my camera, ive got over a hundred photos from mumbai and jaipur on it but i think they need resizing as it takes about 5 minute to upload an individual one, i can view them fine just having trouble uploading them...ah the joys of technology!
Last but not least colin, colin the cocky, cocky little colin the cockroach, id been so good to you and your breathen thus far but theres a few golden rules that we have to establish if you want to avoid being squashed by my bible sized travellers guide;
1 - do not crawl over my face when i am asleep, this includes trying to get up my nostril and it doesnt impress me, at all
Along a bazaar
. It is not akin to a "sexy hug", and if thats your attempt at trying to "get to know me better" then id rather you didnt bother at all.2 - Running round like a crazyed banshee roach on red-bull - you just remind me of my mums mental dog, tasha, you should meet you'd get along....
Finally 3 - Sneaking in the goddamn shower when im getting my fresh and clean time. There is a line in the sand colin mate and you crawled right over it, im sorry i got mad and jumped and shouted at you like a strange-un, and im sorry i chased you round the room whacking you with a big book shouting "FORE!" but i need a bit of privacy mate, so try to keep this in mind and nobody gets hurt and flushed down the bog.
lots of love to everyone whos reading this, and i hope your journey down the toilet was a safe one colin, waterslides are fun afterall fella!
