The deluded and corrupt rulers of India found a novel way to rub the noses of their millions (or billions) of poverty stricken citizens in the dirt and squalor in which they live.
Read it and weep......

The Rag Pickers and Scrap Merchants will certainly get a few pickings.By the look of the photos not much though.There was plenty of Xmas cheer last night at The Arpora Night market but it was going down throats and not into some ones needy hand.Amazing how the ultra rich in India have developed Discriminating Myopia when confronted with poor people.Most have an expression akin to some one who has just sat on a cow pat if a thin scrawny hand comes in their direction.Merry Shiva and a Krishna New Year to all my readers.Hope Kali not reading this or im really in sh*t

We did our bit the week up to Christmas... It has been really good fun and we managed to wrap and distribute over a 1000 presents this year (thanks for all the support everyone!)...

Here's 3 sets of photos from the first couple of days... We had our party on Christmas eve and spent yesterday giving out presents in the local government hospitals in the children's wards and for the newly delivered babies... Was really nice....
