what i would do for public transport!

well just got mugged of £5 from some rickshaw guy! they know your a foreigner and just take advantage. what i would give for public transport right now! just get on a bus and you have no worries. instead of trying to not get strewed by some Indian. i thought i'd last more than 4 days before i happened. but oh well. i guess you can't prevent the inevitable. so yeah.... public transport is amazing. typical india to be so backwards they can't work to get a proper bus service going.


i could buy a bike, but i would just die on these crazy roads. you can't imagine how crazy they are. anyway, i'm back in the flat. we'll have another go tomorrow. maybe better luck!

    well you're just going to have to work on that Indian accent and soon enough you'll be paying regular prices. Rahat should be of some help, she seems to be practising so ask her how it's done. Before you know it, rickshaws will be the best thing in the world. Never thought our public transport would be something you'd be longing for. :S x x Good luck, anyway, in your foreign land x x

    One man's urine is another man's treasure.
    Nice to hear you're missing it.

    Ali, you have to be assertive and haggle. Don't let them push you. If it's too much get another rickshaw. When you mean yes just shake your head - you need to watch goodness gracious me -
    How was your first day at work? Was your tiffin ok?
