Tickets booked....can you help?


Dan de Jesus and I head off to India for six weeks - 30 November - 11 January - to sample the delights of India; curry, cricket, temples and not forgetting the beach! We're starting the trip with a bang; the day after landing in Delhi we're heading to Frozeshah Kotla Stadium to watch what will hopefully be the deciding one day international between England and India. I can't wait to be in the stadium with 40,000 histerical Indians as their hero, Sachin Tendulkar, comes out to bat...


We're both extremely excited although not sure what to expect. If the visa application centre is anything to go by it will be friendly chaos!

Here's where we'd like your input. Do any of you have any recommendations or tips? What foods we should eat, any unusual sites we must go to, any local contcts you can share.

For example, I hear from a surveyor friend in Clapham that there's a tailor in Mumbai who makes amazing clothes... although he seems to cut them for the wrong body shape..

Our provisional itinerary is Delhi, Jaipur, Udaipur, Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Goa (Christmas and New Year), Kerala, Bangalore.
