But what to do. The only loo they have. Happy World Toilet Day!

And you enter the loo. And it is small. And the light is dim. Most of the flow finds it way into the hole in the ground, rather than the porcelain cavity.

Why don’t you take part in Mr. Bombay body building competitions?

“Bugger, my thighs have become nice and hard. I was very thin before. But now my thighs and calves have become nice and strong and hard!”

“Then why don’t you take part in Mr. Bombay body building contest?”

“Shaaaks.”

“Bugger, go, take part, and tell that chic from Delhi and the other from Calcutta to come apply oil on you, bugger!”

“HAHAHAHAHA”

“You’ll win bugger, you’ll win! Then you can get a job in the police or as a railway ticket checker!”

“HAHAHAHAAHHA”

A. Rama Nayak’s UDIPI

We went to A. Rama Nayak’s UDIPI again. Since before independence. 1942. Just outside Matunga station on the east side. YO YO YO YO YO YO YO.

Mumbai in the afternoon

Photos from within an auto rickshaw this afternoon:

the Auto-rickshaw bugger

He looked all of 16. He said that indeed, he had a driving license. I doubt it. A son of the soil. I enquired about his where abouts.

“Kanjurmarg. I’m from Kanjurmarg.”

Cows

“cow cow cow cow cow cow see see cow cow cow cow”

“shaaaks! psyco!”

“see see cow cow see..”

“arre like this you will say or what?”

Heavy rainfall in south India. And a conversation with the tobacconist in Mumbai.

It has been raining in Mumbai since last night. And hard. I stepped out for a cigarette and tea this afternoon. And whilst I was there, I took a few photos with my mobile phone:

Seamus’s theater debut

“We had some very good rehearsals, bugger. We worked very hard. But people must have been nervous. I was.”

Seamus’ debut performance was insane. Here are a couple of photos. Can you spot him? If Seamus becomes famous, these photos might fetch plenty money. Might even be in a museum some day.
