Twenty fourth

Today we went to Sarojini nagar market and shopped. I bought some replacement sunglasses for a quid and Annu bought bangles and a three piece Indian suit. The suit was tailored to her measurements within a half hour. Or so we thought; when we got back to the hotel the trousers hadn't been taken in and they looked like something a clown might wear!
Tonight we heard what sounded like the elephant march from jungle book coming from the bottom floor of the hotel. When we went down to investigate it was a fully fledged wedding parade: drummers, trumpeters, and the grown mounted on horseback. Some of the groom's 'brothers' offered us an invitation but since we were both in pyjamas we had to decline. I hope this wedding on the 1st makes up for it!
