Blogging blues

I managed to duplicate my last blog. As it is no one reads it and if someone wanders there by mistake he/she would be forever put off by this doubling.I wonder how I can delete it?

Anyhow, today I am going to rant about the unclean surroundings of my new residence.Seemingly wealthy people live there in their hatchback cars but still throw out their garbage on the covered top of the dried up well at the entrance to the gully of the colony.The colony does not have a proper approach road.You have to pass the swish houses of the super rich Vasant Viharites and then bang you enter a small gully which houses flats that I am sure have been illegally extended...stench of open sewer greets you but the rent the place commands ensures that the residents are not down-ar-heel slum dwellers but reasonably well employed white collar workers like us.I think in the developed countries we would have found this to be a colony where studio apartments with picturesque views would have been the correct description but this being India we can never run far away from squalor.
