The next instalment! The continuing stoooory of a pig who's gone to the dogs... 28th of March 2018 Developed a bit of a man flu. Actually it’s been pretty bad. Still I felt that I should press on because I was all the way out in Sri Lankan hill country and I should see something. …
23rd March 2018 So, the long journey into Delhi from Jodphur arrived on time. Delhi, my arch nemesis, a place that had knocked me over more than once. And here I was again. I arrived at Sarai Rohilla, not the main and usual station in Delhi, and had to negotiate an auto-rickshaw to the Paraganj, …

Howdy all. Yeah, a bit of a rant today. My travel plans temporarily thrown up in the air with the news that SCOOT cancelled their flights from Singapore to Jaipur. My flight was booked for the 12th of March, which by a less than happy coincidence is the date from which going forward they will …
