reading a bag


At an event promoting Fair Trade I was delighted to be given my goodies in this bag. It's made out of recycled Indian newspapers. The website tells me they are made by former street children. All the newspapers are collected by one man calling at homes asking for newspapers, sometimes therefore the bags feature completed crosswords!

The employment ads on the other side give me the impression Delhi is booming not least in call centres. One says that 'average English' is required.
