Pam - the sleeping wedding auntie

It was after 1am.. the wedding was just starting and it was freezing cold... Pam was dozing off while Raj was running around the fire getting married..

Chandigarh Fountain Women

Chandigarh Zebras

Chandigarh Rock Garden Man

The Rock Garden in Chandigarh in the Punjab region of India was amazing. A man who was a former road cleaner would collect all bits of waste crockery, cement, plastic, everything and made this sort of rambling adventure sculpture park with animals, people, waterfalls... It was such an amazing place and Nell and I stayed there by chance on our way back from Shimla to Delhi. I wish I could have taken one of these chaps home!

Shimla in the mist

Shimla - home of international Nancycam. Nell and I travelled around India and tried to escape the wedding photographers but were accosted at Shimla by a TV crew who wanted to make us stars.

Getting back to the plot, Shimla was an amazing hill station heading towards the Himalayas. We stayed in an old lodge where Jewel in the Crown was filmed - with no heating!

Tibetan Flags, McleodGanj

Tibetan Prayer Wheels - Slow Mo

I have absolutely no idea why bits are blurry and bits aren't, but it makes a great image. It was a nasty day of rain, rain and more rain but it was Tibetan New Year so we headed to a bar and drank with Tibetan monks. Busy chatting on their mobile phones. Odd.

Ceilings in India

Narrow Gauge Trains, India

Actually, I think British Rail could learn a lot from this rail journey. Watching the sunrise while slowing chugging up the mountains in Northern India was incredible.

Wedding Lights, Delhi

And no, these aren't Pat Butcher's earrings.
