New to the forums and new to the sub-Continent, but count me in for the March 14 meetup. Anyone have tips on what nearby landmarks to tell the tuk-tuk chap?

thfump · Mar 7th, 2009, 21:49

homer,

I'd be game for a movie in the next few days. I've been meaning to see both 2 and 3.

thfump,

Click on my profile and send me an email to my yahoo address. I will email you my cell number and the info on the plans for tomorrow.

The other person interested wanted to see Revolutionary Road or Valkyrie. Since Revolutionary Road is the one you guys have in common, I guess that is what we will see.

Ok, Barbeque Nation on the 14th.

So far, the list is as follows:

Me
Nick-H
Gibsy
thfump
Torchlight-travel
bsprasad
chennaiwala

thfump, I have not been there yet, so I don't know any landmarks. I will try to do a scouting trip during the week and post up a landmark. I would assume that at the driver should know the hotel. On google maps, it is approximately 600 meters from Panagal Park.

Kind offer.

I don't know my plans for the day, so won't offer to pick people up, but can always fit two or three in for the return journey --- Adyar, Besant Nagar, Thiruvanmiyur... and don't mind diverting via Mylapore, Abhiramapuram, Mandaveli...

Chris-- There are new additions, I think you need to alter the B nation reservation scheme.I guess it's crowded on weekends.

homerpunita · Mar 10th, 2009, 23:57

I'll make the reservations tomorrow evening. Currently, we have 12, I'll make the reservations for 14 just in case some there are some last minute additions.

Just so no one is caught by surprise, I was told that the cost of the buffet is between 450 to 500 rupees per person.

Nick-H · Mar 11th, 2009, 00:07

Goodness: it's getting a bit crowded for me!

No worries; I will be there, but Mrs N will not be coming.
