Restoration at the City Palace, Jaipur
I have to admit the title of my post and the picture above are partially misleading. The painter on the platform did not take a tumble.
It is me who took a tumble today. And got it in my left ankle. A minor sprain but probably enough to make me miss a few of my evening TT sessions and I dread that. TT is the best stress buster I know of.
But I guess I was asking for this. Off late, I was really pushing my-self hard and unnecessarily maybe at that! So, while I was walking outside in the lanes where I live, with the merest bend in the road my body weight went on my left ankle, and here I am!
And then I realize my younger nephew (Brat 2) is also limping and he is quite sure he can play tomorrow! Gives me some hope, though I have to remember that he is just 18 where as I am not!
hey, hope u are feeling better – there was a time when I was losing my balance all the time and falling..
That restoration background with the shiny brass pot in the front provides a wonderful image of contrasts.Btw….that fellow should have been wearing a safety belt and a helmet.Master Chan would certainly not approve of your approach. If you have practised your table-tennis as hard as they practice their kung-fu in the movies…you should be able to play standing on one leg. :o)Just kidding, take some rest. Hope you are able to continue your routine stress-buster. Warm water soaks with a lil bit of salt and some Relispray should do the job.
Lakshmi I have taken Monday off! I hope that would help in recovering.I agree Paradox that the person doing the painting should be wearing safety equipment. As I said, I have taken off on Monday. TT looks to be out for a week.
The huge vessel in the photo looks interesting…:P
Hmm, thanks Sidhu.
