DAY 175

You know you've made it when your house has a breakfast bar.

DAY 174

People sell all sorts of things at the traffic lights in Delhi: books (pirate copies), cloths for cleaning your car, phone chargers, fruit, toys ... but these giant balloons are the craziest. Why would anyone buy one of these? And how would they blow it up?

DAY 173

Back in Delhi. These guys are playing something like draughts in the car park next to my office. I'm not sure if you can see, but they've actually dug out bits of the wall to make the board.

DAY 172

My colleague took me out for dim sum and tea at a vegetarian place near the British Council office. Mmmmm.

DAY 171

Hong Kong was great, but it rained the whole time I was there. This is normal. So normal, apparently, that when you enter most buildings, there are umbrella covers supplied to stop them dripping all over the floor.

DAY 170

Hong Kong! Three days of meetings in this nutty city. I haven't seen any grass yet. Just buildings.

DAY 169

Yes. This is a park in the middle of one of the biggest, craziest, most polluted cities in the world.
