Yesterday night we discovered that Maneshwar (in whose house we are renting our room) is a policeman for Om Beach and Kudli Beach. We also discovered that he doesn’t like Russians and Israelis very much. From what he tells us they tend to be the groups who get munted and cause issues for the locals. Apparently South Africans and Brits are shanti ;) He clearly hasn’t met the Costa Del Sol/Ibiza/Aya Napa crew.... He asked us what we had been up to that day and I mimed that we’d been to “crocodile” ghat as I replied. He looked at me knowingly and said “Ah, elephant!” Not quite. I tried my mime of snapping jaws once more. “Oh, camel?” No, try again. His son chimed in with “Snake?” Nix eventually got the point across with a quick sketch of a croc with no legs. Charades is clearly not my game. Nix may have a future with Pictionary.

Wicked. So here’s some photos you can look at instead....
