Nice breakfast at the hotel this morning, a cup of tea and some dry bread! Still its more than I normally get, I usually have to get something on the street on the way out of town, which is usually puffed rice and is always tasty!

Every day I get asked to stop for a cup of chai and usually I decline because if I stopped every time somebody asked me I’d never get anywhere! But sometimes I do and today I did just because I was bored!

It was one of those occasions where the man didn’t really want to make conversation, he probably finds it as tough going as I do! He’s just pleased to have you in his place drinking tea.
Nearly ended up cycling straight past Jhansi today I was just following the road thinking that there would be a turn off soon but there wasn’t, well there was but it was a bit inconspicuous and not signed, luckily I spotted it though or rather not and had to cycle back to find it.

Nice mileage! Did they persuade you to buy a carpet?
No it’s not like Turkey where everybody you meet seems to want to sell you one!
