I was reflecting the night before last that I hadn’t vommited yet in India. That I had got to the half way point and I might go a trip without vommiting. Think again. The following day I vommited twice. Never ever jinx yourself like that.

Yesterday I also got my ticket changed to the train which leaves about now. Stupid David. Anyway I don’t feel great today so I am going to leave here tommorow arvo instead. Hopefully anyway..

Everytime today I’ve got up from lying down I’ve felt quezzy tell I lie down again.

No I will not give you a bribe

Three times I tell you. Three times I have been asked for bribes. Twice at Nepali imigration and once on a train by the police. Five or six police officers with semi-automatics entered the carriage somewhere in Biha. They were searching peoples bags in the hope of finding someone to harass. When they found my laptop it was too good to resist. They also couldn’t understand the concept of toliet paper and CD’s. Eventually they wanted a demo of my laptop. I had to insert three or four CD’s. Anyway they fished for a while for a bribe or something along those lines. Eventually they gave up. Malyadri said the right things and they disapeared. Praise the Lord I was praying they would.
