One sees that icky gooey glue in the GPOs still, leaving one all sticky in the thumb and forefinger , provided one sees it wet, kept in a rag of paper with those who having used it ,looking sheepish here and there, how to clean it off ! In this day and age of readymade sticker-stamps. Or else,one finds a repository of germ-filled sponge cup dried up like an old turnip ! Not to speak of the hardly perfora ted stamp edges , which when torn off, comes off diagonally in the middle of the stamp ! When will babudom change, apart from releasing first day stamps and commemoratives ? I dread a visit to the GPO !raju umamaheswarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07107883886526369417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-34264107701225910902017-06-22T10:37:55.140+05:302017-06-22T10:37:55.140+05:30The unsolved clues and grid will be available till...The unsolved clues and grid will be available till 8:30 AM in case the online edition is delayed then it will be there till such time the online edition appears or 6:30 PM whichever is earlierDeepak Gopinathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06337043600355573557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-57337405944145754112017-06-22T10:36:26.617+05:302017-06-22T10:36:26.617+05:30Thanks correctedThanks correctedDeepak Gopinathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06337043600355573557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-85328600309553634512017-06-22T10:31:57.605+05:302017-06-22T10:31:57.605+05:30KKR us right.
