March 2025 and we march on in the 18th Year of our blog

Feb 2006 was when we started. March 2025 We still are blogging.  March is a cruel month in India because of the rising temperature, water shortage, and year ending financial operations, plus the rising inflation and infections due to changing weather. Many of our bloggers have abandoned visiting the site, we have had no comment in February and faithful Peter also not marking his attendance this month.
