At Last

Having driven for miles and miles, been sent on a number of wild goose chases, thanks to Nevilles persistence we finally we got our interview with the Prime Minister, one of the two main contenders for the Presidency. We had secured the other a few days before - trust me you are not getting names here as the are long and complicated.

We had photos with both as one would be President in two days!

That interview was in the morning and by the time we had finished and got back to the hotel we were running 5 hours late for our edit. Another 10 hour stretch sat in my make shift edit suite we finished our 10 min film at 11pm by which time I was getting grumbly despite the constant food and pots of tea.

Champagne was called for and we celebrated a good couple of trips with Ashish we before we seperated. Neville and I back to India and Ashish back to the Village. After that I promptly fell asleep, only to wake periodically throughout the night to make sure the film was safely on its way back to London by internet.
