Dhapakel internet not been working!

Even quicker note than last one. Have not been able to use internet in Dhapakhel for some or all of the following reasons:
(a) load shedding (as in power cuts);
(b) shop closed while owner visits relative in hospital;
(c) few available PCs being hogged by fellow VSO vols.
 
Back in Kathmandu Friday pm - hooray! Got the new flat to sort out over the w/e and then I'll try to do a post with pictures and more tales of life in Dhapakhel.
 
You may see news of Nepal over the next week as we are due to have a national "stir" from 6 - 9 April. This will involve demonstrations and the government may try to stop these by having curfews and closing down the phone system (or at least mobiles) for a while.  Good fun eh!
 
More next week.
Cheers
Roshan
 
P.S. Best wishes to Dave & Jeanna for their travels and life after Nepal. Thanks for all your help and leaving us such a nice flat.
