Hello again

Hi Bligerites

Yep its us again


What to discuss this time


Well been reading about the "The Last White Mohguls" by William Dalrymple in India during the 17/1800's


All about Hydrabad and a certain Englishman who adopted the Indian Muslim ways


Even eventually married an Indian Lady and the story follows him through life till after death


Yep scandal upon scandal, as apparently there was a great deal of this happening in India in the days of the east india co.


This is a great book to start on your history, if you would like to discover a little bit about how it was


Lots of little detail taken from Indian and UK archives to add to the colour


There are many books on India but Mr Dalrymple tells it in such a good way and adds the colour to make you turn the pages



Did take a while to get through but honest its worth it



Next or meanwhile here in Delhi

I heard my old new boss at the big easy has decided to move along, the orange wheel has caught another one , now where am I on the tell all book , lets see , nope PE you are very safe here as the good in my book never get named , the not soo good or should I say the greedy ones, well, its their beds they made. Let the readers decide? Nay juicy bits form others are more than appreciated

Mr B has had a nice Indian chap approach him with the view to helping him write the whole life

Thats pretty scary as lots that people do not know about him , sort of turning your world inside out and upside down to cleanse yourself. mmm he's still thinking on that one as many years to go in the world . There again a bestseller only leads to another one.

Aha you ask where's the humour as it is our favourite, sorry but its true life today

Well as Mr B has been filming for the company today , seem to have done this in previous lives

Panorama BBC 2 transport series and first Eng Project manager for easyjet "Airline Program"

2 rules on the airline program he gave

1- DO NOT FILM ME , please

2-DO whatever else you like

A very quiet success as thats the way he likes it , all free adverising after all, and thats from a person who knows nothing about another persons expertise.

Meanwhile in India .
New visitors
Mr Older Blender and his lady , his dad and step mum have come for a 3 week visit , the golden triangle is on the cards for next week , all in around £400 for 5 days in 5* hotels and a car and a driver, havn't checked out the Uk prices to see if its in the same bargain range but think its a good deal .
The rest of the delhi relics will be seen in the bit before and after
Can help others if you are getting ripped orf , just let me know as need to get the mind back into gear and have a mission in life

Dust , heat and the smells and sounds of Delhi are a delight to any open eyes , just keep them open and let your mind do the same then you see though to a fantasic India as you should do .

A third world country that will be 1st in Mr B's eyes in the not to distant future , that is if the old guys let go and let the youth begin.

The slum has gone from the view on the balcony, moved along the road brick by brick, honest.

They took a couple of tractors and many people during the the last week and rebuilt along the road an identical slum , complete with (hotel) as they call them here to serve up the fried onion whatsitsnames and other delights.

Shops are about to open and Mr B has hiden his mastercard card from Mrs P just to be cautious
Namaste all you readers and you need to e-mail funnies to place on here as running out of them
