DAY 72 (Friday 30 September 2011)

Just the usual work stuff today and then on for the DASHAIN Party as today was the main party day for the DASHAIN, it was held on camp but after working hours, to be honest I am not totally sure what is happening at the function as I am not going as we are having an early start in the morning for our drive to POKHARA. 

However, I do know that there was a raffle, (for which I got a couple of tickets), but I don’t think I have won as one of the prizes for the raffle was a goat, yep you read it right, a goat, that was the main prize, fortunately the goat was alive, but that is the sad thing, whoever won it (especially a Nepali) would probably have it slaughtered, if I won it I told Marion that it was not to be slaughtered as I would not be there for the drawing of the raffle; seeing as I didn’t have a knock at the door tonight I don’t think I did win it.
