[Sunbathing, shopping, eating out ... No, this is not the Riviera; it's the life of the Overlander in Kathmandu!]
THURSDAY 23RD DECEMBER,1976
"Sunbathed on terrace - lovely hot sun but awful flies - felt virtuous because wrote letter and cards! Lay in sun for awhile - really hot - Little Chris had tent out (on concrete) - people made cracks about hard ground for pegs etc).
Went out later with Sally and Di to get embroidery put on skirt and jeans by this little man in tiny workshop in one of lanes between here and Durbar Square. Then hunted round Freak Street for Nepali suits (baggy trousers and wrapover tops) and had some made up at little tailor's.
Went to Utze's again for another good meal - little boy with black fez works really hard there."
