We’ve broken the bed



Staying with Kamlesh is such a fantastic experience and one big parts of the trip this time is to visit relatives along the way. At every town there’s a maternal uncle or cousin, and staying in Jalore we visited family and after chai and a lot of chatter the phones came out for a group shot. As often happens we perch on the bed in the main reception room, which is bereft of sofas. So we all politely arrange ourselves in rows for the photos and suddenly there’s a loud crack ... of the metal bed frame buckling under our combined weight. How many English and Indian folk does it take to break a bed? 14!!!
