FIRST POST

     THIS MORNING'S SOUNDTRACK:  Dig!!!  Lazarus!!!  Dig!!! - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds  

     This is the first try out of this thing.  I'll be using it to help people (any people who are bored enough) keep up with what I'm fucking around at while in India.  I'm sure as I get used to it, I'll be able to utilise it properly, but for now it's just a little text.  I'll try adding photos and, with any luck, videos, too.

     I think I'll be writing down my thoughts, impressions, incidents by hand in a notebook and then transfer it across once I can find a computer to do so.   This may lead to differing styles of prose; some entries will have times - odd occurences written down as they happen, that sort of thing - locations will sometimes be noted, but often won't be.

     Dad and Gaz will hopefully contribute to the blog, adding their experiences to it, so, hopefully, it won't just be the Conrad Show.  That said, I'll proof read Gaz's posts and swap all the commas for apostrophes and adding other punctuation in the right places.  No offence, Gaz, but it gives me the fucking shits and you damn well know it.

     Anyway, this is it for now - we don't fly out for another two months (March 23rd, move your arse and get here, will ya?) and, as I wrote, this is really just to see if this thing works well enough.  More truthfully, if I can work it well enough.  I'll try adding a photo of a previous trip to see how that goes.

     Ta ra for now.

     Conrad
