Hello again everyone!

We thought we would write to update you further on the happenings here at Patnem!

We have been enjoying beautiful weather and long lie ins. It is rare for us to get up before 10!

Toms sunburn has now recovered - thanks for the concern!

We have made friends with one of the dogs on the beach, who we have named Grouchy, because she is always starting fights with the other dogs! She follows us everywhere, especially to our dinner table! There is another dog at Papaya's called Sam who lay on our sunlounger with us - but Grouchy doesnt like it if we pat other dogs!

We went sea Kayaking, for which Tom did most (if not all) of the paddling - hes really quite good! However, once when we went swimming in the sea, Tom lost our door key and the staff had to call out a carpenter to rip the door open and replace the locks. I now wear the key around my neck whenever we swim!!

Tom has also had the spiciest curry of his life, a chicken Kadai. He asked before what it was - and the response was 'chicken in gravy'. Sounded safe enough - but he was literally sweating by the end of it. The only meal I have ever seen him not finish!!

We have had every type of food here - all good (except some onion rings we wont mention). We have had chinese, thai, indian, italian, mexican!)

We have only today left here and then we leave for an overnight in Mumbai tomorrow. I hope the hotel is nicer than our delhi one! Wouldnt be too hard!

Then we fly to Singapore for a couple of days then onto Phuket in Thailand!

We will post again soon with some pics of Singapore!

All our love,

Lucy and Tom xxxx
