Heavenly Pleasure

I wonder if the people on the India trip can recall what you were doing around about December, 36 years ago, in Kathmandu. If not then this may explain why you have no memory…..

Last week I received a package of travel memorabilia from my brother, Ronnie, in the U.K. He has been reading this blog and thought I might find all my old letters and postcards, which I sent while travelling, to be useful in jogging the memory.
In among the papers and letters was an old “flyer” I had picked up in Kathmandu, Nepal in December 1970. Here’s what it said (including original typo’s):

Heavenly Pleasure at
OUR
FREE COSMIC HASHISH PARTY



As one of those who was naive and immature in the ways of the weed, and did not partake of the “Heavenly Pleasure, I would be interested to know, from those who did indulge, if they can recall anything of their “cosmic” experience. I do remember some very strange people returning to the hotel in the early hours of the morning.

In the meantime, my Best Wishes to everyone for a happy and peaceful festive season, and I look forward to meeting up with many of you in 2007 – the Year of the Reunion.

PS. Will do my best to get something up on the Oz trip over the holiday period.


Comments:
Those with diaries please refer to Tuesday 24 November 1970.
First incident of the day implicates Paul, Hoppy, Sandy, Noel and myself.
Second incident:
Little Pete, Bob,Don and Bill.
Graham also there as he was providing the transport and no doubt headed the negotiations along with Sandy for the hashish!!!

On the Monday we went out to the Peace restaurant and had sweet and sour pork that left us with 'Delhi Belly' so may be the hash was our local remedy ........

Strangely, my 1970 diary (printed in UK) has these days out of sync so my entries are totally confused - asterisks everywhere.
Regards Jean
