The north-east work adventure – Tezpur

Day 16 – 6th March 2020

Awoke fresh and early. No untoward breakfast incident. Coffee was way better than the tea!

The taxi we had today was different from the ones we had all the past few days

All of us were at gate by 9 am, looking forward to a short day, where I was hopeful to be done by lunch as only some paperwork was left and checking of items.

New day, new rules at the security gate. The taxi was not given permission to enter at all. Not even to drop. The gate keeper would let us in if we are driving the vehicle!!!

Angshuman called the taxi operator and they sent the older vehicle and which he drove us to the site in himself.

Reached by 1030 am and got busy preparing the sandstorm machine with the jugaad arrangement.

We know for a fact that this machine would not be touched ever as I have not seen a use case for a machine like this in any Worksop in the last 18 years of my experience!

Did a small demo to the clueless officer. Checked the items sent to them and hot their sign off on the items supplied.

We repacked the car washer and welding machine that needed to be shipped back to Bel, had lunch and were back at the hotel by 3pm

Checked out of the KF hotel, booked a hotel at treebo tryst kalyaniz in Guwahati and took the help of Rocky Barua’s friend Sanjeev to get us a taxi to Guwahati

Bade goodbye with heartfelt thanks to Angshuman for his help with everything and onto the next site – Guwahati

Checked in to treebo hotel kalyaniz. Quite a decent hotel situated in a market like environment.

Rooms are spacious, hot water on tap. Hopefully will have great service as well

Dinner we had at the hotel restaurant. Good food, but very expensive. Head to bed soon after, to wake up to Guwahati tomorrow.
