This is our driver Victor standing by our car in the car park at the apartment. It's a very tight squeeze to fit the car in there as the parks are made for small Indian cars not BIG, diesel guzzling family wagons like this.
Victor in his other mode of transport, the trusty scooter, rain, hail or shine.
Speaking of fuel guzzling cars, it seems to be like this car is a bottomless pit and what makes that worse is the Diesel crisis in town at the moment. We still don't quite get the reason for this problem but apparently there is no diesel getting delivered to Chennai.
So we are always on the look out for a petrol station that has it in stock. It must be really hard on these business's as a lot of them are made to just shut up shop for the time being.
Yesterday on our travels we managed to come across somewhere that had some, so I said to Victor "Fill it up" and that he did, he stood by the side of the car and when it was just about full he started rocking the car. The kids thought it was a scream. I think he squeezed as much as he could out that bowser.
And hows the fact that I don't even have to get out of the car!!!!!!They even come to my window for me to pay.
Eliza commented yesterday that I will forget how to drive and fill the car up.
Not a chance.
