Scorchio

Yep the title is spot on for fans of the fast show many moons ago
Sorry India's friends , you wouldn't understand as not seen on tv here yet , wait till 20??

Well both back with our family here in India
Husband, wife, pigeon in a pot plant on the balcony and a little chick or whatever you call them
Just opening its eyes now , there was two eggs but we guess they have to eat something!

Mr blender learnt another Hindi phrase that will come in useful , only thing is not repeatable here. Pick on Kam blog as he knows

Well it was back the gym today for Mrs Pimms , only one set of exercises as Air Con was broken and one set equals 3 sets in the heat

Ok in the appartment/hotel of F603, as the aircon keeps it a comfy 28 degrees , believe us that is comfy when its 42 outside

Onto life in India then, Mr Blenders is still laughing on the way to work as there is always something to see
, will stop one day to ask directions from the oxen pulling the cart with the guy asleep on the back , well it must know where it's going?

Been a little bit of a strange turn in the Indian social front , riots in Gurgaon on Tuesday
Shut the MG road , where Mrs Pimms goes shopping for essentials like beer and cheese
Strange as the people who were rioting were in support of a caste who want to be downgraded
Yep Downgraded
Not as funny as it seems when you consider that this would mean more assistance and additional goverment jobs to them , strange how some laws come back to haunt people

Mrs Pimms is entertaining the Gurgaon Clan on Thursday, well as many as delivered pizza or lots of egg or tuna sandwiches for tea . My votes on one pizza , chilli and some sandwiches

Aha you ask where are the photos ?
Well here they are !!!!


Mr Blenders helps water the plants in true Indian style
, he missed his shoes, because it was dark!!
The little daisies and buttercups came back to life though
Lots of peole came to watch and they even managed to catch this photo
May have something to do with jelously and the Delhi times Article on "India's size". Just ask Kam for the print out , or search the web to get the answers
Apparently , no I can't say no more and you will have to look.

This standing out in the open is apparently a traditional Indian man thing around Delhi
You can see many of them doing this at the side of the road , hoping thier special brew will nurture and nature the plants
Always wondered who left the smell at the side of my old work building , if anyone knows him please tell him to stop doing it as he's in England now !!!!!!!
I just think it's disgusting and people should wait till they get home or to the pub!!!!
Take note Mr India , the Delhi Times does not like it either

Next


Mrs Pimms tries and manages to get 111 dance partners
to join her in the Hindlish version of bollywood dancing
, three and a half hours she was at it , and the dancing, well??
Well you know what she is like , Mr Blenders even had a little go , but you know camera man and all that?

Meanwhile , our mali shows how to look after the garden
Cheers Gerard, what about the other pot plant and where's the chillies or what is that one you keep the leaves of?

Well it helps the economy and I dont claim for this one on exes
500rps a month to come in every second day and water, move, dust, feed, fumigate and love all the plants , even likes our little baby pigeon as not seen one before
Have you , always wondered where they came from as never seen pigeons eggs?

All for this post , but before we go
Tell us how just how hot are you?
And appologies to Lara for the miss-spelt name , ps: Mr Mills is visiting next week will I say hello from you ? Didn't know he had left the building but am about to have fun
PPS: Mr Blenders has had the suit made for the next job in a few years time for only a few rps , will this be ok for the job Kam ?


Namaste to all our readers

Mrs Pimms & Mr Blender(s)

I am not dead yet !

Hello readers, Mr Blenders is back

Well one has to work in the land of sacred cows and colourful scenery
I know bad grammer
Spotted a strange man wearing a fly me T shirt on a scooter, registration was 0747
Definately a good bit of thought gone into that.
Must be a Pilot , any comments ?

Meanwhile we have been to the UK for a small get together on a lovely couples BIG day.
Wonder why the Bride is rushing away soooooo fast with her new husband? Could she let us know as we couldn't get a good shot and the gravel in the carpark is still being shipped back from Luton.


Fantastic day with lots of sun from Delhi, Mr Blenders imported and customs didn't charge anything.
Gave a 100rps to the teacher at ourtable as she was telling her class all about India and its difference to the UK. Even told her what it was worth out here ( a days wages to the labourer or even our part time Housekeeper , Bunty)
Hope the class are impressed that you meet such intresting people

Spent a fortune on pants for Mrs Pimms and the young Miss Pimms, soon to be Mrs
Not overpants but underpants though they could be underpants covered by overpants or they might be overpants that are underpants, but you need to be in modest India to understand that

Good to see all you people back in blighty although have to appologise for taking the weather back with me , only 35 degrees today , but it did rain yesterday ( at night)
Come on ex work people, cheer up as its life out here
And Laura, yes that was Mr Blenders that paid you a visit , just a little bit of what he used to be before the big orange machine got hold of him , just wait till the next time you see me
The two pack will turn into a four pack, cant work too hard to make the six
Mrs Pimms will be ready for the tv programme by then ?

Well back in Gurgaon
Bunty cleaned up and the Mali managed to move the plants back into the house. All bar one but will show you that next time if you comment!!
Think it might be our family out here

Denis this is the sum of my gardening on 500rps a month, only thing is you can't eat them as only house plants and around 12 of them and Gerrard comes in 4 times a week to water, feed, move then around and dig up the soil, what a star.
Even clips Mary's Bush, the old money tree on the balcony??


Hope those that got one are suitably impressed at the extremely expensive, no monies saved, extremely hard to get out of a tin shack,with the rigt spillink, gorgeous lilac invites, disguised as a bar of chocolate!
Thanks Alen you ............................... Please comment on what you think should be here? piccie later.
Please do not eat them as you will get stomach crambs that may result in a bit of "Delhi Belly"
There again could somepeople that are not coming along consume this and use it as an excuse, we will understand. Honest guv!

Start counting down to Mr Blenders speech on the day , thanks to Marrions stepdad for some hints and tips and what was that about A1, is it a road or a cell or just an expression ?


And now For something completely different

Meanwhile whats with the title?
But before that, sorry to my Finnish friends . Heh you can take a joke or two
Well its based on a well known show in the west end that starts about Finland
You know the one

In Finland boy we like to drink
Because its never, never ever hot
We start to drink one winters day
And end up finishing sometime in May
And then , we start again as like it or not
To down a schnapps it is an art
And the downside is it makes you %*^t
To sup some more now thats not fair
Oops I fallen , down the stairs
Well you will just have to go and see for yourself and dont forget the bottle of champers as Mrs Pimms laughed her distintive laugh before, during and after it!


I think the gym intructor will like the T shirt or "I,m not dead yet" , might make we work a bit harder though

Well its a bye to a cloudy rainy blighty and will leave you with the old tower bridge to ponder all your thoughts on

Meanwhile





"I'm not dead yet" but will be after the gym on saturday

Mr Blenders

Last days in gods Country and a little bit more

Hello blog readers

Well the end of our brief trip to kerela with the place that takes a bit of practice to say
First though its whats the brits do on hols best, at least we scotians saw it coming and decided time for a G&T

Fantasic beach and a good end to the hols, just wonder where all the people are on the beach though, will we go back?
Yep , hopefully.




Moved onto see the temples and sights of the big city ,
wont let you into this one but fantasic carvings all over. usual guides trying the soft well in Kerela
Managed to get our carved elephants at a reasonable 200rps each and eat lots of onion bajy's form the street vendors.




Well after a wee break time to get back to work for both of us,
Mrs Pimms entertaining the S&M group (Sewing and muttering as could not thing of one for (Twisted Threads ) on a coffee morning and poor Mr Blender having to spend a few days down in some place called GOA on a management meeting, had to cool off with a sail and swim after a tough time with a fantastic group of people


Just to top the weeks after the hols we got an invite to taste
some more culture from our Indian friends. First Hindi Wedding
and what a special celebration it was. Take note for this september all the party goers, that Mrs Pimms and Mr Blender are practicing the routines for the Hindi dances having been dancing in the street. More on that next update




And finally the question of is this legal?
I don't think it is, as
1- It didn't cover the driver
2-Driver has no head protection
3-He would not be able to see if it rains as the wipers are missing
Still waiting to catch the family of 4 and a dog on the bike , but I am sure it will come along soon



Namaste , or bye as we are back to the UK for a few weeks

PS:Blenders

Messing about on the water

Hello people

Its the Maddama and her Sayip once again , still on the lazy, sultry holiday in Kerela

Just had to have a little cruise on a boat we nicknamed, "Queen Mary"
Its the way you feel sitting in a comfy chair, drinking a fresh coconut whilst chugging along the backwaters

Lots of nature and India's sights to see, and all under the
safe hands of our Captain and his first mate, Mr Blender

Mr Blender taking a well earned rest having navigated the
dangerous seas and dodged the other boats and the ducks,
thought it better to get into Nature's way by seeing off lots
of Kingfisher








Meanwhile, far away from anywhere right next to a paddy field, as the sun goes down and the mossies come out to play. Top tip -remember the mossie spray for the cabin the next time as both of us got up to itchies and scratches in the morning








Well All for now as next we go to Thiruvananthapurram or Trivandum for those that can't say it

Namastar

Backwaters

Hi

Well still having a hard time in Kerela
Relaxing, reading and just taking in the sun





Took a little boat up the rivers and channels to see some of the life , driver was excellent and only seven, his dad helped him though.






Lots of this happening on the way , and people in the water, swimming along with fishing nets just infront of thier boats
Bit different from Loch Long fishing



Afterwards a little drink , fresh and natural out of its own container and just plucked/chopped from the Jungle, well this ones healthy and unlike the little stalls along the road, alchohol free!! All for now , where next , I know we were both looking forward to it

Mrs Pimms and Mr Blender

Cochi

Hi People, friends, readers and anything else in cyberspace

Back to Cochi for a little bit of city life and the essential shopping trip for souvineers






Sunhats come in many shpes and sizes around the city




Mr Blender found a new pet, wouldn't let him have the one in the basket
Mrs Pimms says he already has a pet in the appartment, still under training in the gym, ok he agrees .


We have noticed in Kerela that the cars dont have dents all over them, must be a delhi fashion statement like the TV add in the UK.

Moved along to a relaxing day in a little cottage by the lake, what a tough life this is!
11 Aircraft to manage, sunshine , great people and fantastic food






Pimms on the lawn anyone?

Namaste

Lazy days in Kerela

Hi peeps

More on our adventures in India for you to feast your "eens" on
Still peeling from the hot hot weather down there in Thekkady jungle



Meanwhile have a look at the jungle and see what woke Mr Blender up at 5am

Was obviously mates with the rest that visited us during the day at the nature reserve



His best mate and little one , after 1,2,3, all go aaaahhhh now.






Recognise anyone Kam , the dark blue shirt said he was your brother , well they took pictures of the rare breed of goras in the reserve, so thought we should oblige too



Mr Blender found a new housekeeper but apparently she doesn't like the mild mid India weather as its only 41 degrees, so guess he will have to keep looking , have given her Lance's flier for the lady's day at the flying club. her mum keeps a close eye on her though



Onto the big city and a small snack in the mountains before we stop in Cochi, yum yum shortbread and banana chips washed down with hooch or was that kerela tea

Well that should keep you talking , Namaste
Mrs Pimms and Mr Blender

Holiday day 2-3

Hi blogger readers

Day two of our trip to the south coast.
It is not too hot as still in the hills , a comfy 85 and a little mist at times
Found this tour bus at the backside of our hotel in Munnar , just glad we had the trusty ambassador Joshie to show us the way .








Visit to top station in the mountains , only 1600metres we had to climb







(in the car , well what were you thinking we are that fit by now!!
Couldn't call it a road really , more of the rocky track clinging to the mountain)


Had to stop for an Munnar tea and Kerela omelette at one of the little shacks at the top
First customers for lunch and soon joined by some gorras .
Great service and yummy food
More tea vicar, er Mrs Pimms








Next the journey to Thekkady hopefully to see the elaphantis and other strange alien creatures for us rare gorras
Hotels and little cafe's all along the route to quench our thirst with some of the stuff they grow here









All for now , Namaste

A wee bit of scotland in Delhi

Burns nIght at last and why oh why have I got this underlined

Thats better , "what's the program" for all our Indian Friends Well
Some of us had to work onthe night, organising , selling and giving out the BIG prizes
Oh and there was a couple of speaking parts to do
One for the lassies and one for the laddies
Thanks to Fiona for the assistance of what lassies mean when they say!


A few of the Cali society managed on the night to get together for a family pose

A very kind and extremly good airline even sponsored the mag and gave a couple of tickets as prizes, thanks Sid ( Mr Blenders CEO)

Mr Blender said a few choice and strange words about lassies followed by Mrs Pimms









Rounded the evening off with a laddie and lassie of the unfortunate victims and a little bit of throwing it around the dancefloor

Mrs Pimms thought the chicken and haggis was too much for Mr Blenders as he gained the ability to speak fluent Hindi , at least that what he thought.!!!
Nobody could understand a slurred word at the end of the night and the stuff in that coloured bottle on the table seemed to have evaporated, hic.

Another sighting of that rare breed of "goora" in Delhi dressed up in best Indian attire for the evening.

Namaste from Mrs Pimms and Mr Blender

Gods Country

Well hello surfers

Back from our 9 Days somewhere in India

Cha anyone , plenty of it out here after you have traveled the narrow roads in the mountains and all in a shiny white Ambasador, just for you Alan!

Miles & miles of Tea, but its not ready yet so didn't get anyone any.

Had to stop for an Indian 15 minutes while they re-lay the road on the way Was actually half an hour but I think they just held us up to let the blond inspect thier work, or the other way round , to inspect the blond?

Mr Ambassador's car needed a bit of a polish after the tea and tarring, and about 50 helpers cleaned it up without looking at what they were doing!




Another first for Mrs Pimms as we shared a speedboat ride on the lake

and afterwards a rare glimse of the
very rare slimmer gorra breed in the area
"blenders and pimms" infront of the burning bush!










Meanwhile, back at the hotel in the mountians with no piccies as NO MODESTY given for the slippery, sliding, slapping massage with hot oils
Well after all it has to be experienced in Gods Country. Mr Blender is buying up all the gee/engine oil for use back in Delhi having seen how easy it is to slap it all around.

Namaste

Mrs Pimms and Mr Blenders
