Garry McGivern Travelsonabike2 is cycle touring in India on Sunday, 16th-October-2016. They really are making it comfortable for me here, not only did they set me up with a good internet connection, but Deepam has only gone and put all the English-speaking channels on the TV in my room now! I knew I was better off staying here rather than that hospital!
As comfortable and nice as it is here, I really need to get moving, though! But I suppose until I’m fit and able to do a good day’s ride, I’ll just have to stay put.
Been doing my domestic chores today, my washing! Don’t get me wrong, I wash my undercrackers and T-shirt every day, just not my trousers or shorts! I can’t believe that the only thing I can write about is me doing my washing!
My Routine
I seem to be settling into a bit of a routine. I get up and go for breakfast. Go back to my room and rest. I then get up for lunch and back to my room once again for a rest. Then, after another couple of hours, I go out for a short walk. I like to go out for a walk late afternoon or early evening just to see how I feel.

I usually walk down the street to the crossroads and have a chat with a few of the locals (that’s the normal strained chat that nobody fully understands, but we all have a rough idea!), then call in for a beer at the little bar that’s along the road on the way back to the hotel.

Before going into the hotel, I usually call in at the little stall across the road from the hotel and get some biscuits or crisps. Just in case I get the munchies!

All very intimate. I think that walk is a good indicator. Have you thought of retiring there?
Some people think I have!!
Your local shop looks great. It’s making me feel nostalgic. I am glad you are being looked after so well.
It is and even the people over the shop look out for me! Don’t think I could have found a better place to be ill!
