Hi Everyone. Monday evening writing from Delhi. I had an amazing runabout of 4 govt offices (for running in Indias restricted areas of the north-east)today and had so much conflicting information I am surprised I still have any hair left. I will explain later, far too complicated!! Anyway, I think it’s sorted but cant be sure till I touch the start line where I left off at the Myanmar border. I fly to Manipur state capital called Imphal in the morning and it is a must that I must register at the FRO Foreigners Registration Office within 24 hours. I am told Jan 1 could bring another change to the rules!! Please let me relax:( I hope to be up and running by New Years day!
Hoping all the readers had a nice Christmas and wishing you all a wonderful 2014! Ah Yes 2014 at last
PS For those not familiar with the story the runabout was looking for a permit in the restricted areas. Got it sorted,I hope! Cant be sure, that’s India! A Big thanks to Mr. JPH Singh, Director in the Ministry of Home Affairs in New Delhi for his very valuable time,research and patience. Everyone says I ask strange questions they never heard before! What you doing for the New Year

Tony–welcome back to the road—-well–soon anyway—first a long commute to the border of India and Myan. —Homeward bound from here on—-enjoy the route through India–at least the cops won’t be hassling you all the time—-
Good running–Greg

Good luck on your return to running, I’d say you will find it difficult to get back into your stride considering you walked so slow when we were out. I had to slow down about 6 paces to walk at your slow pace. It was easier to bring you in the car as we all know you don’t like walking if the mileage is not counted. Ha ha!! Anyway safe and happy travels on the road back home Ann

Thank you Tey. I had a nice Christmas and hope you did too. I am so grateful for all your great help.
On Friday 27th Dec I return to India. Unfortunately I have a 20 hour layover in Paris as I was told because I booked my flight back to Ireland for the Christmas using frequent flier miles that I can only take selected flights! I arrive in New Delhi on Saturday night. It will take me a couple more days to get back onto my route at the Myanmar border for my run across India. Happy New Year to all in Kuala Lumpar

Oh, so the police story is a real one! Think it will be the same at Laos as well. Good luck and happy new year! Keep running!
