Aah, sweet Dasain time, with swings, kites in blue skies and tikka!Like last year, and years before, this is Hindu X-mas and Easter rolled into one week of puja, tikka giving/receiving. And overeating - it´s estimated that about 75% of meat consumed by Nepalis happens this bloody week.One change though - this is the first time since Shahi dynasty came to Kathmandu Valley, some 250 years ago, when the top politicians, from PM down, didn´t receive tikka (blessing) from HM the King!
