Closed for breakfast, lunch, and dinner

As you read this, I’m on the beach.
No, not the local Portobello beach, but rather on the glorious beaches of India’s west coast. I thought it was time I sampled a little change of culture, having not been to India before.
I left my laptop behind, and am refraining from computer use whilst away. Instead I’m making use of WordPress’ excellent timestamp feature, whereby you can set a specific future date and time for your article to be published. So I typed this before leaving.
Expect one or two guest authors to be making an appearance, and if you like, I’ll post some photos when I return.
Should you be really missing my regular blog posts, why not check out my featured articles page?
Namaste.

and is not the time stamp great?? I also have done the same and have full on blog posts coming while im away soaking up rest :D
Enjoy!
Sounds like a great trip… hope you come back relaxed and refreshed. Scott
I didn’t know WordPress had that kind of feature,, I can definitely make good use of that.
Oh my God…In India…
Welcome to India.
Contact me….. If you need any help.. :)
I am in Kerala.
OMG, you’re in India? Cool. I’m down here in the south of India. West coast? Why? Come to the south, and you’ll see a lot more than just nature ;)
@Niyaz PK: Meet a fellow Mallu, mate. I’m from Kerala too.
Sounds like an awesome trip, hope you’re having a great time. Can’t wait for some good articles when you get back about finding inspiration in India.
Also, perhaps we could talk about a guest post in the near future?
Good for you David! I hope you have/had a wonderful vacation. As Dustin said, I hope you have many tales to tell when you get back. I look forward to them. :)
I bet this is a bit like traditional mail when you go on holiday … piling up for you when you return.
Hope you enjoyed it… and points for taking a break from the computer.
Welcome to our country! I guess you are in Goa!!
By the way “Namaste” is a bit too formal and it’s better to use this form of greeting when in Northern regions. Down south …you should say “Namaskaaram”. When going eastwards say that with a little Bengali accent “Nomoshkaar”!!
Nowadays we have got used to saying “Hi” and “Hello” more than “Namaste”.
Any ways “Shubh Yaatra” ( Happy and safe journey ) !!

Hey Niyaz and Sumesh, nice to meet two fellow Keralites.
Anyway, David, I hope you enjoy your trip. :)
You comming to Bangalore!!!??? I am here too.. well u got a good amount of Indian readers as I see..
Ejoy your stay in India.. forgive those bad roads, actually we are contacting god why at all we are not able to build good roads, but hey again We have been gifted with the most amazing culture, and nature..
Good to see you in India
D.Airey, you have to come back, your feed count is dropping. Why do people unsubscribe from a feed if there are no posts? What’s the point?
Wow, I think your feed went up about 900 since yesterday.
Brown Baron,
Thanks a lot bud.
Jermayn,
How was (is) Malaysia? I was there a few years back. Beautiful country.
chipseo,
Good of you to say so.
djahna,
There are quite a few nifty features WordPress has. I don’t know where I’d be without it.
Niyaz,
Didn’t make it to Kerala, or I’d have certainly looked you up. Have you always lived there? I’ve heard it’s a beautiful part of the country.
Sumesh,
Likewise, it would’ve been nice to meet up. Next time eh?
Dustin,
By all means, it’d be a pleasure to host a guest blog post from you. Shoot me an email when you get a chance.
Carol, Adam,
Thanks for commenting, and you’re right, there were so many emails awaiting my return, and I’m just working my way through them.
grafic7,
Your lesson in Hindi is much appreciated! I did spend some time in Goa, and the beaches are superb.
Sarat,
Good of you to say.
Santosh,
I didn’t make it to Bangalore, though it would’ve been nice. No need to apologise for the roads. I’ve been on worse. ;)
Harris,
A few posts must have been stumbled when I was away. Perhaps Leslie’s guest post, or the alphabet image one. That would’ve pushed the feed count up temporarily.
Wow sounds like your having a lot of fun. The photos are great! I run my own business so therefore I’m planning a trip to go some time next year. You gave me great ideas of where to go. Thanks
