Hi everyone
We have now arrived at the clinic. What a relief! The train journey was a bit of a nightmare. 20 hours sharing a sleeper with a couple and two young children - not very relaxing! I got on board feeling well and over a few hours developed a temperature and some mild vomiting. It's now the following day but I have been very weak and have had continuing stomach problems. Not too serious but enough to stop me eating. Haven't had anything but water for 36 hours now.
I've looked over the clinic to see what must be done but must delay the installation a few days until I am feeling better
The clinic is in a rural location and the the exact opposite to the Mumbai and Delhi - peaceful clean and comfortable. A pleasant place to be sick!
There is so much that could be done here. Would love to do a permaculture design for the place but would need to be around for months to make sure it was implemented properly. Introduced them to the concept of mulch today. They find it hard to believe but we are getting newspaper and straw to show them how to halve their watering needs.
The solar panels purchased with your generous donations are here ready to be installed. Hopefully I will be well enough in a day or two to do the work.
Will give you a more detailed update soon!

It's fantastic, Anton, that you have arrived at the village where you want to make a contribution. You sound very positive despite being unwell and that is great. getting a stomach upset is par for the course in India and hopefully you'll feel better soon. Keep up the good work and your enthusiasm. your blogs are very interesting and appreciated. Cheers Peter B
