Day 266 - 16th July 2011

Had the first of our marathon 'rest' days until the 21st of this month. Woke up in time for lunch and was did general tp until evening when the weather gods were kind enough to allow a game of tennis. What we didnt anticipate though was the quality of the new clay court post the rains. It has become extremely soft at certain places which leads to a lot of uneven bounce. Its like a 5th day test match pitch with the ball even turning 90 degrees at times! Still managed to play for about an hour and a half. The 'rigours' of tennis coupled with skipping snacks meant that dinner at Chota was on the cards. The all time favourite of paratha and burji had the desired effect. Post dinner have been reading up on some articles and listening to music. Its become extremely hot again out here, makes sleeping all the more difficult!
