Things Iv'e learnt in India

* Don't ask leading questions like "Is this the way to Chennai." because you'll enevitably get a "yes" and a nod/shake of the head.

* On the flip side, asking for anything generally results in "Yes, no problem."

* Indian bike mechanics are the best in the world. + The quickest & cheapest.

* All Indian coach and bus drivers are homicidal cunts.

* Riding a motorbike with the gearshifter on the wrong side and upsidedown.

* Eating raw chillis, good for the digestion.

* Why have 1 person do a job when you can have 8. (This does not mean things happen 8 times faster, rather the reverse.)

* Indians hav'nt figured out what to do with rubbish, other than dump it in the street/River/Sea.

* The Lonely Planet guidebook is a pile of crap.

* Everything is really cheap.

* Everyday in India, you see somthing hillarious, insane, heartbreaking, breathtaking, ugly or beautiful.
