Bangalore

Well, well. It is incredible to believe that almost 2 months are over.

Just in the process of recovering from my night-out with Suraj & Anand. As ever we took advantage of the extended happy hour(s) at TGI's. Not bad Mojito's either, certaintly better than Oli's attempts or the one we had later. It was lovely to catch up with them both. After TGI's we were off to try and get into 1000 but 3 stags (blokes) trying to get in seemed to cause a problem and there was a definite shortage of ladies about, so we headed up the road to another place, the name of which escapes me but turned out to be spot on (except the crap mojito's); the old monk was much better.

Had a walk around the area where I am staying near the railway station. Completely different to around MG road! This is much more like the India I have been seeing on my travels. It much more hectic here and many more street stalls rather than modern malls.

Managed to pick up some of the South Indian tea (chai) cups that seem to be the norm here. Ideal for cooling the tea, if you don't burn your fingers!
