Chennai Meetups

mirjamd · Nov 14th, 2008, 16:55

Ok, let me propose a date:

I was just looking at a Sunday because that seems to be easiest for everybody.

23rd November
30 November
7 December

I am also up for the veggie market stroll! Maybe not as a meetup, but as something extra.

What day would be best for you, Esther? And for Mrs. N?

estaneil · Nov 16th, 2008, 21:14

We can do next sunday for veggie shopping or meet up! Saturdays and Sundays are fine for us anytime!

Nobody asked me, but I'm putting in my thoughts anyhow. Myself and Mr.Ambler (aka Mark) would be available the 30th or the 7th!

30 th and 7 th there should be no problem to attend for us too

Sorry, that sounded really snarky! I didn't mean to sound petulant.

Nick-H · Nov 19th, 2008, 19:46

7 December would suit me best. Previous weekend is a busy one.

Weekends are never good for my wife: she uses them for church and family commitments.

estaneil · Nov 19th, 2008, 22:10

7th is good for me and neil!

steven_ber · Nov 20th, 2008, 13:03

I might try to make it on the 7th.

I'm probibly heading towards Vijayawada soon and it's only a train ride from Chennai, I've also heard that Indian Railways are giving green shield stamps for every 1000kms travelled, though this rumour was probibly started by the joker who said there'd be a train to Khajuraho soon.

It would be a shame to miss Nick's 'better half' though., religion and families, they ruin everything.

mirjamd · Nov 20th, 2008, 16:15

I think most people have agreed with 7th?

It would be great if you could make it, Steven!

And nobody asked you, Ambler, but I'm very happy to see you replied and that you can make it on 7th

And Nick, would be too bad if Mrs. N. can't make it. Do you think she could she make an exception this time and join us?

estaneil · Nov 20th, 2008, 21:56

where shall we go?

Nick-H · Nov 20th, 2008, 22:18

Sorry, Mirjam... she's already making a couple of weekend exceptions, for other things, including a sick husband and an expected cyclone (that was an aticlimax!). One should not presume on one's wife's days off too much!

Ambler, by asking this on the previous page, i meant you guys also of course

I understand that Mrs. N just can't let go of her plans on Sunday..

Let's plan something next time so she can also join. Would be nice to see her again.

Sorry, don't have a brilliant idea for a venue... But then, having some nice Italian food at Bella Chiao in Besant Nagar doesn't sound like a bad idea.. It's a quiet place as well, so we'll be able to talk.

I think that would not be too far from Nick and Stella, a bit further for Ambler though.

Anyway, it's just an idea...

Nick-H · Nov 21st, 2008, 13:58

I'm happy to go for that Italian

EssJay · Nov 22nd, 2008, 14:31
