Monkey business

Following a horrible night of me being unwell, we had a nice quiet day. Very little was going on in the hospital but Neil went and helped with the antenatal clinic (while I caught up on some sleep). All of the women came back with their results at once so there was a mad rush of people waving their results slips- some of them Neil and Elisabeth hadn't seen in the first place. There was a scramble to try and match patients to notes! The concept of a queue is lost on Indian people (wow that makes me sound thoroughly British)!
We've started making arrangements for our travel at the end of our time here and booked our train up to Darjeeling!  It's making us pretty excited.  Apparently the train we are getting is very like the experience in the film the Darjeeling limited.  Neil is looking forward to this. I can't remember the film!
On Fridays there is a weekly study meeting for the doctors and Neil and I presented on one of the cases we had seen. The discussion was good but disturbed by the sight of a monkey outside the room. One of the doctors (who is very loud and insists on calling me Jennifer Lopez) scared him away by yelling before we could get a good picture. Shubhro managed to get one of me laughing at this loud doctor with the monkey in the background.
