Well I am here until November 10th and im already bored of India, I would travel further south but they are having their second monsoon which will make it impossible and also quite difficult to get my flight to Maylasia so I have had to book 2 internal flights so I can get to Trichy to get my flight out of here. I have decided to stay a week in Paloleum (spelling may be wrong) and then go to north Goa and see what is there. Paloleum beach is where they filmed the Bourne Supremacy in 2003 to which they shut it down for 3 days while Matt Damon ran about a bit. It is very busy here and it is not peak season yet (Nov-Feb), the beach is arch shaped and linned with palm trees, if there wasnt so many people this place would be beautiful. Prices here are much higher than Benulim beach which is not good. I may go to the south to find a quieter beach on Tuesday.
It has rained quite a lot since I have been here and the day I go to walk down to the beach I take the brolly and then the sun came out, I was burnt!
Along the beach women try selling you cloth, bangles and other shit and there are droves of them each asking the same questions, where you from? what do you do? I have passed time by amusing myself and serveral other people by coming up with the most random answers e.g. I was from Chille and I was captain of the USS Enterprise or I was from Nepal and a gold smuggler with a perchant for human traffiking or best was I was Gavin from Stockport and I worked for autoglass and would she want me to inject my special resin into her crack ha ha ha ha, she didnt understand that one. The best way is to just 'pretend' to be asleep until someone said "excuse me" (the tag line of the sellers) about 5 times and I then shouted "cant you see that im prettending to be asleep" It was a German girl who wanted the time ha ha ha. I did apologise and explain.
Cows roam the beach and I have seen a few occasions where they decide to just lie on peoples stuff and eat it ha ha ha.
The bus ride here took 2hours and cost 50p where the scenery was amazing.
Not much more to say, see photos below. Or above as they seem to be up there. Looking at the photos they look like what you get when you google paradise.

Sounds a bit like unjolly old England weatherwise, but I'll tell you something Captain Kirk, this old cow would love to be roaming that beach. Plus I'd be sacred. Ha!

You sound like you're having a great time - NOT!!! Broody, you've got to remember how poor that place is and the fact is you will stand out and get hassled; but just take in the culture and enjoy it. Believe me, when it's all over and you're back in England you will wish you were back travelling babe. More pics needed.....Kelly
ReplyDelete1st photo: I didn't know you were such a style icon, I have got them shorts. You look like the new Gary Glitter with all them kids around you.....you know one of them is going to be your wife in a few months.....but the strange thing I need answering is.....how did you bump in to Brian Harvey? It was nice of him to have his photo taken with you while shaking your hand!
ReplyDeleteChris, you could get sun burnt walking past one of them electric fly zappers then have in chip shops!
Gavin from Auto Glass.....ha ha ha, quality!
I don't think I would like all them wild cows strolling around the place.....thinking about it.....maybe I should get a flight out to meet you, buy a burger van and a massive mincer (for grinding up meat, not mincer as in Sol Campbell) then I could send you out as the 'cow catcher' and I would have an unlimited supply of free beef! Don't worry about all that 'sacred cow' nonsence.....as soon as then Indians taste one of my sweaty quarter pounders they will forget all about their precious cows.....failing that I will just tell them I made the burgers out of 'Indian Orphan Meat'.....I'm sure they would be fine with that.
I just need to think of a name for our Indian Burger Van Company.....any ideas?

Alright herbert, you know you said you'd come home as you'd as you'd banged the 'perfect tranny' you were talking about....well don't...matt lucas's ex killed himself...seems he found out about your relationship with the bald fella.
ReplyDeletelooks like it's plan b, meet mr glitter at the pre-arranged location
thai boys best watch out!
P.S
ReplyDeleteThat girl sat just infront of you in the first pic, she looks like she's just caught a whiff of your wang
Your mum and me had an Indian night last Friday. Consisting of a take away and watching "Slum Dog Millionare", which, I thought was a pretty good film.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, fed up with that continent already. Jeez, you've only been there five minutes. Stop wingeing and enjoy it all.
Must admit, I'd find being close to that kind of poverty quite humbling and I'd gladly give them all your dosh. Ha!
Take care of yourself.
Love Dad xx
PS. I hope you approve this post ya bastard!
