I slept much better last night - must be adjusting to the timezone. Still very tired though - it's exhausting working here, non stop explanations, discussions, questions etc. I guess it's just more intense - I'm only here for a few days, so we need to cram in as much as possible.

Talking of which, we had a good 90 min session this morning with most of the Delhi team covering my app - partly random Q&A, partly talk about how we will adapt for future requirements, the drive for efficient storage (even not storing unnecessary data), and the move towards stateless calculation trains (thanks Rob).

We also trying to plan a trip for the weekend. We'd like to see Amritsar and the Wagah border, but there's a bit of unrest out that way. Shimla would be good, but it will be a lot of travelling. There's always Agra or Jaipur - but that doesn't seem so ... exciting? Maybe Mussoorie or Rishikesh?

Good discussion with Mitts about recruitment, and resource allocation. A welcome relief after any afternoon on the blower to London

Went to Sahara Mall in the evening with the team for light nibbles and beers. Luckily the original destination (a disco pub called the Lovely Obsessions Bar) was being renovated, and so we popped next door to Odyssey, which was much more my scene - relatively sedate and relaxed. Many thanks to Mitts for organising a super night out. I think we all got to know each other a little bit better - and that's always a good thing, right?

Back to the Taj after Odyssey, for a slap up lamb rogan gosht in the 24h cafe. Top quality, and relatively mild.
