1. I'm off to India for a couple of weeks at the end of the year. Have you ever been? It's certainly an eye opener, I can tell you...
  2. no its a depressing state of affairs and needs major cleaning up
  3. It's well worth a visit. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but if one can take it, it's the most amazing place on Earth.

    I have a terrible India addiction - this'll be my eighth trip in sixteen years. I even got married out there, so far as the marriage went It's just incredible. I'm taking the the boys out there for three weeks in a couple of years, do some travelling around. It can be extremely difficult to deal with - it's in your face, 24 hours a day, and I almost left within two hours of getting there the first time, but it's incredible. It really ISN'T everyone's bag, but it's certainly mine. This trip will only be a couple of weeks in Goa, but it's not a bad way to spend a couple of weeks of winter now, is it..?
  6. And thanks for the welcome back, as it were

    Aside from India, I've been to Nepal, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Japan, the US, Morocco, UAE, Indonesia and a few European countries. My oldest son is half Peruvian, so I'm hoping to take him there at some point - he's going himself in the summer - and a sister in Oz, so that's also on the cards. I'm trying to go to a new country every year, so apart from India, I'm hoping to grab myself a long weekend somewhere in Europe in the autumn. We go to Ireland every year to see family, too. I'm also part Guyanan, so that ought to be taken care of at some point, too. Having kids and responsibilities, I have less spare cash for travelling these days, but I get out and about as much as I can. For me, though, India IS the place; without wanting to sound like too much of a tosser, it feels like home to me, and it's where I plan to retire to and live once the boys are older.
