I'm Back

Hi guys
I'm back from my little trip to India. Sorry to have to inform you that I did not even see a train let alone take photos of one. Due to work commitments it was not possible to go off to see trains. Although I crossed over a Indian broad gauge line every day I never saw a train on the track. India is 5 1/2 hours ahead of the UK and as we had to work to UK times, we had to start work at 13:30 and work through to 00:30 on an early shift and from 14:30 and work through to 01:30 on a late shift. We then travelled back to the hotel arriving at 02:15 and had a meal from room service. Went to bed round about 03:00 to 03:30. On our day off, we were not aloud to go out on our own for safety reasons, and as I was the only male with 5 of the lets go shopping type , I did not stand a chance, no matter how many hints I dropped. Sorry to have let you all down, but the trip was very good work wise.
Syd
