Meet the clients

Have spent the last couple of days being whizzed around to meet clients. Bit of a whirlwind, all smiles and handshakes and yes we'd love to work with you kind of thing, then off 2 minutes later to meet the next set of clients.  Fortunately they all seem to be next door to each other, almost literally as well. One lady commented that because of the air conditioning being inter-connected you can smell what the competition is having for lunch. Although, having trouble remembering anyone's name at Primefocus in India let alone the clients name, and then trying to pronounce it properly as well. My memory simply isn't up to it.
Haven't yet had any troubles in the belly department. Although after yesterdays eating events it doesn't feel like it will be long before the Delhi Belhi strikes. Had a full on indian, dall and roti plus other things I cant remember the names of for lunch, followed by an indian style chinese?!, which was somewhat spicy to say the least. It's been a very odd way of eating the local cuisine so far that's for sure. Almost went to an Irish bar afterwards, but needed to lie down and recover from the acid indigestion that was threatening something more. Irish bars just get everywhere. If anyone can name me a country where there isn't an Irish bar or any sign of an Irish influence.
I should point out incidentally that the title for this blog, "Bombaythehardway" is in no means reference to my stay here, I simply have an album I was given by the same name - which is very good - so I thought I'd use it. The only hard way I guess will be dependant on my eating habits and how the job goes.
