We're off to India on Wednesday morning - if any of our devoted readership wants to say hi tomorrow (Tuesday) between 9am and 1pm British Summer Time, we will be packing in our hotel rooms and can be telephoned like this (if from outside UK, start from step two):
- 08444 390390 (this gets you 3p/minute call rates to China)
- 008610 84214250 (our hotel's automated switchboard)
- then type in ext 8311 (or 8316 for the other room if engaged)
We'd love to hear from you!
Lots of new pictures below
Meanwhile, scroll down for new words and pictures: we managed to get lots more photos uploaded, so we've posted more blog entries with photos in, and they're (mostly!) dated when we wrote them, not when we typed them in. So there are new entries, as of yesterday and today, going back to September 21st.
We still can't edit once we've posted: so please forgive dumb bits of layout, broken links and stuff that's in the wrong order.

Hello - this is Chris Jones
I was in India this summer. Went to Delhi, Agra, Jaipur, Amritsar, Waga, Chandigarh, Hardiwar, Puonta Sahib and great place in foothills of Himalayas starting with M. Name escapes me now. One word of warning about excursions. Was advised that it is a good idea to book a day's excursion from delhi to eg Agra. Did this and was good value on the whole but sometimes the itinerary went completely wrong and some things I really wanted to see were missed out. As a whole family it would probably be economical to hire a car and driver. This need not cost much. For example, we had a driver takes us in a 4X4 from Chandigarh to airport (7 hours and then he had to go back) This cost £50. Will be just as easy to get around Delhi on auto rickshaws. Roadside cafes are good.
Have a great time XXX
Hi Gang
Just a short note, I doubt I will be able to ring you tomorrow, thank you for keeping us all so updated about your first month, it has really helped in not missing you all so much. Please say a big hello or sat sri akal to my homeland, I hope it brings you as much happiness as China seems to have.
Take care thinking of all of you most of the time,
Satixxx
