Currently in Lahore,PK

09:15. L. is grey almost foggy and cold-20C! That's a drop from the upper 30s yesterday. From mid-afternoon the Indus road has been swathed in woodsmoke incl. L. but the fog/smog is still here and not smelling of wood. L. Looked like a much cleaner more modern city (more Iranian!) until you have to duck round a donkey pulled cart or avoid the goats being dragged along the road-and the bloody tuk-tuks. Bike's rear has a slow puncture or can't handle 150kg of rider and luggage over crappy roads. DEET leaked and dissolved skin of my Ortlieb drybag. I think the Amer needs fumigating before updating. Not sure why SMSing, have Hotelnet in lobby.

Message was sent by Ian 9.5 hours before it arrived.
