Driving with Whiskey

Delirium put to bed so pulled myself together and boarded the jeep to Gantok, the capital of the mountain state of Sikkim and the most recent member of the Indian Union (1975). Lovely drive alongside fast flowing rivers through increasingly mountainous terrain. The journey is made even more entertaining by the ludicrous signs painted on to rocks on the side of the road, signs presumably dreamed up by the All Indian Road Safety Sign Design Department or A.I.R.S.S.D.D. Here a some of the better ones.

Driving With Whiskey Very Very Risky

and my favourite.

Don,t Gossip Let the Man Drive.
