Yeah... If they want usable toilets we'd better change to Saravanna Bhavan. I don't understand why an otherwise good restaurant keeps its toilets in such a way --- but then we've discussed this toilet thing, and many born-and-bred Chennaiites can't understand why many other chennaiites can't keep a toilet clean!

I'm really not keen on these coffee-shop-type places: their prices are ridiculous, and they can never make decent tea (either English- or Indian- style). Let us avoid please?

I really would like to come, but I just found out about this big 'rock' festival on the 14th and 15th (JRO I think), which sounds really cool. Would anyone else be going to that?

I'll be there, Nick.

Just had a computer crash and lost lots of emails and addresses, so if those of you I am in contact with could email me again that'd be appreciated. Nick, do you have my email just in case plans change?

Cheers,

Scott

I'm interested in meeting up, but I can't make it until 9pm. Will the meet-up still be going on by then?

Scott or Nick, any chance of providing a cell number I/we can use to catch up with the group late? You could PM me if you're not comfortable posting online.

Cheers,
McKay

Meetup Friday 15th

Detailed address and directions please ...

I'll need to stay overnight in Chennai to attend. Can anyone recommend a nearby lodge, about Rs 250 to 300 (or a sofa for the night ...) ?

Thanks,

I don't have an Indian mobile, but can PM you my UK mobile, it'll just cost you more! I think we'll probably still be there by 9, from my end it probably depends more on jetlag than anything else.

I think Nick already posted the address earlier, as for directions I have no idea.

Okay, I am flying out (via 4 days in London) tomorrow so probably my last post until the meet.

Anyone else coming?

See you all in Chennai next Friday!

Take care,

Scott

Scott... Looking forward to meeting you again; though my unreliable brain cells can't remember what you look like!

Nearby hotels, try Hotel Karpagam +91 44 2495 9984 or Krishna Residency, 24643617 (maybe a bit too expensive). Both are nearby.

It is in North Mada Street, Myalapore, but any driver will know to find it. You really can't miss it (famous last words!) cheaper seats downstairs, more expensive food upstairs.

I guess there will just have to be an early January 2008 IM meet!
