.hello everyone.....internet connection slow so may have to make it quick.

where do i start,

our flight from heathrow was delayed so we arrived in delhi 3 hours late but we were amazed to find a man with a sign with my name on it waiting for us at the airport to take us to our hotel.

the 1st thing my mum sees of india is when we stop at a traffic light and a small boy comes over to the taxi and starts swinging his limp arm that appears to have no bone in it against my window. i start laughing (totally wrong i know) but i feel mentally tired and like im going to puke.

anyway, we get to the hotel and over tip every f***er in sight out of joy when we are shown a nice clean room......................because of this a fruit basket with 1 banana and a packet of crisps in it is delivered to our room every hour by a different member of staff!

the following day we try to buy flights out of this s*** hole to kathmandu but all flights a re booked up for the next month....hmm, my mum was gutted but having been there before i thought it was utter bulls***. so, we spend the entire day getting tuk tuks round asking around until stumbling into what looked like a shack but was apparently aroyal nepal airlines office (with the royal scribbled out) and manage to book 2 flights for the next day...JOY!!!!!

Next stop thomas cook to change some more money where my mum falls up the steps and almost bursts into tears (it was her birthday, who wants to spend their birthday in delhi!)

we went back to the hotel, had a really nice birthday thali and some beer and went to bed, packe and ready for our early morning escape.

anyway delhi stinks of s***, piss, death etc and is the arse hole of the entire world. its full of ill tramps with missing limbs and skinny indian dudes with severe side partings and i f***ing hate it!!!!..very funny though.

We got to the airport for our 11.40 flight 3 hours early (you know, just in case) and thank god we did as the flight actually left at 10...but guess what?...that didnt matter anyway as the flight got delayed for 6 hours!

.........and here comes the big one for those of you that know mym mum....they dont let you back out for a fag. at this point mum finally starts crying...the good old delhi airport cry!...but soon cheers up when the women that stands in the toilet lets her have a sneaky one for 10 rupees (bout 1p)

finally fly into kathmandu airport and just when we've almost made it its my turn to lose my rag when we get to the hotel and theyve given our room away!

i dont really remember whet happened but my mum says my eyes kind of glazed over and the poor guy behind reception quickly pulled me away and into an office just before i screamed at him. anyway, they found us a room and we've had a nice time in kathmandu, eating shopping etc.....oh yea and my mum has stopped asking me when her holiday is going to start?

we're off on a 6 hour bus ride to chitwan national park tomorrow for 3 nights safari, elephant ride etc.........................see ya
