I'm a Looser

seriously - if my head wasn't attached i'd have lost it by now.

So some good news and bad news.

Good news : My head is throughly attached, and therefore still in my possesion.

Bad News : Phones are like negatively charged ions when they come near me... I've lost my UK phone now so I'm entirely uncontactable. Almost - if you are desperate to speak to me (i know that you all must have a burning desire to speak to me by now) you can contact me at work on 01603 666910 or at my hotel (the GRT Radisson Chennai) on +91-22-24042211 (Room 244).

I can't call out from my hotel room as the last time I did that it cost me in the region of 125 quid... which i'm going to find difficult to slide by the expenses people. Although it'll make the lobster seem relatively inconsiderable in comparison.

I may be getting a new local phone. So hopefully I'll be contactable again for like 4 or 5 days? If I'm lucky. Before the mighty force of incompetance launches the device from my person and presence into the mobile telephonic communication device void that Chennai is becoming.

Yes I have warned orange and had it all disabled. No they wont ship me a new one out. Yes I DO have to get a 'Police' reference.

Although after some arguing the 'Police' reference became a 'Lost Item' reference that I can get from anywhere... which, I suppose, includes the pits of my mind.

Any way - I've been writing this all day and this is all i've managed.

Try to update again this week at some point.

New phone

As lovely as it was to hear from those of you who texted last night, i would like to point out that I am 4 and a half hours ahead and your probably looking at 20-30 minutes delay in a text getting to me. so those of you that sent me messages at 9:30 your time, thanks for the wake up call ;-)

Only joking - it was lovely to hear from ya but anything after 9:30 on a school night is probably a mistake.

However on a non-school night feel free, drunken texts ahoy...

Some of the guys left today, so I was feeling a little jealous of them heading home to blighty, then just to compound it J mentions that he's heading the the playhouse for a sunny lunchtime pint :-(

Boo - I want sunny (not roasting) lunchtime (not half past seven in the evening) pint (oh o.k. I can get that out here).

Its the sunny lunchtime bit I miss.

Ahh well - I get 4 days off. We've dropped the ball on Goa but we're gonna go and hire an 8 man Villa on a beach for 20quid for the weekend... ;-)

Tonight is food out for one of the others departments guys who is leaving.

New phone

I have a new phone. I have gone 'local'.

New number is +91 9884 980889.

Yay - only costs me pennies a minute to phone (9 to be exact) - better than 175 of them...
texts are even less... If I don't get in contact now be offended... very offended.

Only joking - it'll be because of my silly workload, time difference and having to drink beer.

got a rubbish phone too cos I couldn't unlock mine from where I am.From the smallest phone shop in the world (i could ahve touched all four walls if there had been room for me to stand in the middle).

Great. Rubbish games on it though... :-(
