  • As in Pan, the faun-God of forests and trees and nature and stuff and some cheap gag at the expense of the second Star Trek movie? No? Well, bugger. It's actually a little bit relevant too, would you believe *tumbleweed* Sooo........ Yay! Finally, the trek in the Kodavu (Coorg) hills, near Madikeri. This is where we saw a bunch of cool plants... more

  • Mangalore, and I can't even remember what this is. It's that fort, right. Well it looks pretty and that's all that matters: A church with a belltower - y'know, I think we might be in Madikeri right now...? - No, it's Kerala for the first time, and the spinning of rope from coconut husk ( a pretty tedious process, but essential) in the middle of... more

  • Maybe. The more wanderlusty and bored amongst you will be happy to learn that I am now picking up the pace and will be zooming through a pretty good array of new countries in the next couple of weeks. I've met up with Greg again and he has two accomplices in tow, and between them they have an impressive quantity of get-up-and-go. They are all... more

  • I've managed all but the last few stages of my journey; so far about 1000 miles by plane, 450+ miles by train, 100 miles at least by taxis and rickshaws (Chennai is NOT an easy city to get around, neither is where I am now just for sheer size) so I have just the last 400 or 500 miles on the bus to go, plus a couple of taxis, and I'll be in the... more

  • Look, right, you try thinking of titles to rhyme with the entire Harry Potter and keep them slightly relevant to the subject matter. So what, I don't have any pictures of a chemist in this one but come on, I've been banging on about all the lovely, freely-available valium over here for months now ;) Actually that isn't quite true, it seems to... more

  • I Told ya the Harry Potter material was coming out soon. Someone please think of something appropriate for the next 6 title please, I'm stumped! Riiiiight, where were we? Ah, yes. - First things first - does anyone want to see a funny video of a man cutting off his hair; dreadlocks no less; with a knife? :D Well, here you go: Graarrgh! That... more

  • We shall begin with some humour. Here's a recent photo of me! http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b312/evilhippy/Worldwide%20things/cric295.jpg Ha-freakin'-ha, I'm sure if someone's supposed to be taking the piss then the extractee shouldn't be yourself.. :-/ Could have got a better pic/had shave/looked happier I must admit.

  • I'm cringing at these titles myself now, that one is a bit contrived, isn't it? Sounds like the title of a Harry Potter book ;) I've enjoyed reading old HP and his adventures through mystery, magic and puberty, but frankly it seems as if Ms. Rowling read the Hobbit and the whole Discworld series and simply abstracted a made-for-modern-children... more

  • So Before the madness and badness in Kannur, and after the loveliness that was Mangalore, I was in Madikeri (Mercara) and I wanted to see something of the Kodavu (Coorg) people. You are going to have to get used to all the bracketed names here in India - for various reasons the Disctrict Commisioners and the Central Government has been renaming... more
