Probably not the most exciting of photographs but as part of the purpose of this blog is – as well as musings on music, life and whiskey – is for folk at home to see how I’m getting on.
My apartment has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, dining area and living area where the TV resides. There’s also a small balcony with a washing machine on it.
All this – along with cleaner, cook and food for £950 per month – about the same as it cost me to stay in a hotel in Kuala Lumpur back in 1999!
This week saw the place plunged into darkness for about half an hour when a blackout occurred during a storm. At least I‘d finished my meal this time around and so no risk from chillies.
On the domestic scene I think my cook is getting the idea of what is needed to cook bacon and eggs – though he still doesn’t seem to grasp that I don’t need a plate of noodles of chapattis to go with them.
Other than that there’s not a lot to report. There was an article in the local press about the rise in mosquito carried diseases – Dengue fever, Malaria etc – during the monsoon season. A possibility exists that I might have to visit Mumbai in the next few weeks – but nothing for sure.
