Critical and Essential

For those who really know me … I can bore for England on all sorts of subjects.

In my view this story of the economic and social orthodoxy that we live under and affects every aspect of our lives is critical reading.

Many will have heard me going on about it.

The individualism and competitive-ism we mistakenly believe is our default setting is wrong.

We can choose to see humans as cooperative and get ourselves out of the mess we’ve been tricked into…

Strongly recommended.

Lucie’s death anniversary.

We remembered MAnjula and Lucie today in the field where we buried Lucie.

Lucie is buried under the plant.

Wonderful that guests Maïlis (who was there helping support Lucie on her last day) and Maria and Ani were with us.

Also our loyal team members Satish, Akram and all put together by Sowbaghya.

And then there were dogs waiting to pounce …

They were actually very patient.

Umesh has set it up as

Bow Wow pet resort and cemetery

a place for dogs to go holiday while we go on ours … plus somewhere to bury our pets, and a final resting place for dogs found on the roadside.

More details and how to support Umesh’s work.

Students thriving through their art.

Kaliyuvamane students do it again with a wonderful performance at the Bahuroopi national theatre festival held in Mysore.

Rajesh Madhava has spent over a year working with the students on a range of projects.

Their confidence and communication improving dramatically.

Fantastic!

Kaveri with mum Chandrika.

Missing her friends and this great teaching. Well done to all the students and their teacher/facilitator Rajesh Madhava

Check out their wonderful school.

honey puppy wants a home

. ….
Friendly lovely honey puppy looking for a home.

We’re regretfully looking for a new home for Gingee and we’ll be very sad for her to go.

It was a mistake to adopt two dogs (Stephen’s idea!). It’s too much for us as well as our business (BnB and cycle tours) and looking after Kaveri.

Kaveri with Gingee and Luca.

Gingee is a great character. She’s had all her jabs (inoculations) and comes complete with lead, collar, bed and additional vet fees to sterilise her.

We’re in Siddarthanagar at Mysore Bed and Breakfast.

Do come and meet her and see if she can join your family. All injections are completed, with collar, lead and bed. Plus some food and vets bills covered. We’re in siddarthanagar in Mysore

Juggling the duties has proven too much. We can manage one!!

Luca we’re keeping as he’s the image of my lovely Lucie who died last year.

Gingee is a honey colour.

New Year’s Day

Thank you Hema for arranging the young generation to join me on a mycycle tour.

Hema has already joined both a Srirangapatnam and Mysore Tour. I obviously hadn’t messed up as she returned with more of the family.

Fab!

Great to meet and spend time together … Harsh, Mitali and
Joshua.

A lovely mix of US and India
