Time is up in Nepal and despite feeling pretty ill decide to risk it and get the overnight bus back to the Indian border. Stumach holds up well but feel weak as a kitten and semi delirious; which is my usual bus state; as we head back to the border. Things are delayed though as reports of ambushes by the "Terrai League"; splinter group of the more militant, "Human Terrai League" in the forests ahead reach the driver. Repeat loud playing of "I,m only human " seemed to keep the protesters at bay; this; as well as the being escorted in convoy by hundreds of heavily armed troops in military vehicles.
Midday Friday I am back in India and decide a day in bed should clear the delirium.

The Human League are an English synthpop/New Wave band formed in 1977, who, after a change in line up, achieved great popularity in the 1980s and have continued recording and performing with moderate commercial success in the 1990s and 2000's. Originally a synthesizer-based group from Sheffield, England, the only constant band member since the Human League formed in 1977 is vocalist and songwriter Philip Oakey. Today The Human League are still recording and performing. The group is now presented as a trio of Oakey together with long serving female vocalists Joanne Catherall and Susan Ann Gayle
