Susie, Max and Darcy left for Pune this morning to attend the wedding of our maids daughter. The journey took about 3 hours which is about right. I'd booked them into the 5 star Westin Hotel, with visions of them lazing by the roof top infinity pool, relaxing on sun loungers. Shame that the weather had other ideas and it was raining when they got there!
What to do, oh what to do whilst they are away...? With so many potential options the risk is that you end up doing nothing of note, so I settled on a few laps on Grand Tourismo with the sound turned right up, the music off and a heavily modified car in manual to test my gaming skills. Five minutes later I'd had enough gaming, so had a look at painting the flat walls with some paint we bought a few weeks back. Paint turned out to be lumpy and unusable, so I went to pick up some photos. When I arrived they still hadn't been developed so waited for 10 minutes whilst they dumped them onto a disc. I then spent 10 minutes choosing the ones I wanted printed and left. Back home I started watching Goooooood Morning Vietnam, which I've seen before although many years ago now. Tried to download a program from iplayer but computer wasn't playing ball. Ended up watching BBC programs on the computer using Expatshield, which sets you up with a UK IP address to gain access to UK TV - brilliant! So spoilt for choice I then watch a number of programs and catch up on some excellent radio. Still trying to watch the end of Goooooood Morning Vietnam so no time for cooking - plough through a bowl of Dorset Muslei that I'd bought earlier today!
Retired to bed at 9pm to read my new book, The Motorcycle Diaries, fell asleep shortly after......zzzzzzz.
