Feb. 17th Friday
Above --- I have been giving the housekeeper (Srinivas) a hard time about the issues in the house. I had no cable in my room and the lock to bathroom would lock you into the toilet area and you would need to call for help. I told him if he didn't get these items fixed I would make him into dog bait. So, he decided to make my bed in pink on Friday morning. He also has been telling stories to Dinesh how I drink beer. So here I go with my take on drinking alcohol in India. We ate in multiple restaurants around the city and until Wednesday night and this is still the only place that has served alcohol for dinner. As I understand it you have two types of restaurants one for families and one for adults. They only have a few for adults. The reason is after one to two drinks people get loud and rowdy. This comment is for Frank B.----- I have yet to find anyone who serves wine so I would suggest not taking a trip to India------. So, now going back to the comments from the housekeeper to Dinesh. I guess I was setting around Sunday night working on the computer and drinking beer. I think maybe at best I had five beers, the housekeeper had never seen anyone drink so much beer and he couldn't believe how little affect it had on me....... See picture above of the beer --Kingfisher----
I had a very good day at work and I think the group is responding well to training. So, just as I was getting ready to leave for the day I was informed that the Muslims had rioted in the old part of the city this morning and they wanted me to return to the house and they would bring in food. This area was under Muslim rule for 1000 of years so they have a large population and tend to follow what happens in Pakistan unlike other areas of India. So, I'm very concerned over this and I was even able to pick the story up on national news.
