Shopping, 157 Nepalese Rupee is equal to £1 UK.
After dropping Amrit at school time for a little shop browsing. Bhat Baheni is Pokhara's answer to Marks and Spenser, a department store of 4 levels clearly aimed at the middle and higher classes of Nepali residents.

Next time I'll take a look at the electrical department but today I just need some toothpaste, might get those Mango chunks - irresistible price!
here then is a snap shot on what the Nepali folk pay for their groceries...
