We would often say how lucky we are to have found each other and shared our home with a constant stream of new friends arriving at our door.

We had visitors yesterday.
A lovely family who first came to stay with us ten years ago with their young daughters.
What a lovely surprise.

B C Shetty and Mamatha
Dhrithi and Diya
Dhrithi and Diya have now grown to be strong clever young women, a real credit to their parents and themselves. At ages 15 and 17 they’ve been home schooled.
Fantastic and a great example how the women in India are seriously getting their act together.
