Basier drew up with a flourish, his new green and yellow rickshaw throbbing with life, a large smile on his face. Something of a change from the SUV with tinted windows which he used to drive ! We had a deal - he would be my chauffeur, tuk tuk, driver in the afternoons. As we bowled along, I asked him how he enjoyed driving a rickshaw. "It's a good business", he said "I make 500 rupees a day and I get to go home at 6 p.m. - no overtime and I'm my own boss !" He paid 50 000 rupees for the vehicle, so it'll pay for itself in about 4 months !
