I was expecting TH in Chennai today. ToI had a holiday notice yesterday so no paper today. But I don't think TH had a holiday notice. My repeated call to the news agent elicits no response. Previously we had landlines in an office with staff. If one doesnt pick up the receiver, someone else might. Nowadays most of the busineses are run by mobiles which may conveniently be switched off or calls ignored.
No holiday announcement yesterday, but no paper today. TH carries on its page 'today's paper' including Quick CW in Metroplus,but no news about CW. Resigned to no CW day except for ET.
Agree with Cv on state of affairs.
Happy Dasara/ saraswati Pooja/ Vijayadasami to all.
In CBE, I got a copy but sans thc and metro plus. Half of the contents of the paper contained full page ads and yet they charge the full Rs 5 /- Shame on them to ignore crossword sections. They care a tuppence for readers !! Grrh to them !!
