Happy Lhosar 2135 (2008)


Lhosar is the Tibetan New Year which is celebrated on the New Moon in February. I'm not sure whether it's today or yesterday but there was a street festival being set up today and lots of Tibetans in their best.

Pretty much got into the routine of 8 hours per day load shedding at home. Minor frustration is that it looks like the France v Ireland rugby match is being shown on TV5 tonight but we have no power then. I'm not going to hunt around for a bar which is willing to have the TV on a French channel showing rugby - it could be a long search.

Weather is definitely starting to warm up, positively hot in the sunshine today. However having got used to cosy hot water bottles (3!) in bed, it may be some time before we get out of the habit.

Cheers
Roshan
