  4. Deepak Gopinath27 October 2017 at 17:48

    Since Devanathan is from Bangalore and he is Ok with Lunch on 3rd. I am going to freeze the event for Lunch on 3rd. This will suit those who are coming in to Chennai from outstations as a night stay will not be required.
    Chennai residents may please discuss with Bhala/Shrikanth and finalise the venue.

      Any update on this. I will be starting from Nellore in the morning via train. Will have to plan the start time. Would one hour be OK from MAS central. Pls adv.

    3. Bhalchandra Pasupathy30 November 2017 at 14:34

      As far as I can make out, the marathon will be in south Chennai and nowhere near the station or club. even otherwise, should be over much before the event time. Normal time from station to club would be 10 minutes

      I haven't started that, was waiting for a better idea of headcount. But for ease of access to station for outstation day trippers, I feel Presidency Club would still work best. Shrikanth, any comments? Or from anyone else for that matter. Other venues that I can tap into are Gandhinagar Club and Madras Race Club

      Delete
    2. Col_Gopinath31 October 2017 at 10:30

      I too feel we should settle for the Presidency club unless any one else has other options

      Bhala, I agree that Presidency Club works best. Thanks for fixing the venue. Your help is always appreciated.

    5. Padmanabhan5 November 2017 at 08:56

      Agree with the unanimous choice of presidency club- easily accessible central place and a nice one too.
      Bhala,

      Always available if any help is needed. Pl. let me know.

    I envy you all guys staying in Chennai/Bangalore where you can attend such meets. For me staying in quite a remote place, have to really stretch my itenary(holidays) to even think about attending.
    It would be great to attend one such meet and meet you all.
    Really hoping to make it this time.

    Presidency Club is on a road off an Egmore Road or off Mount Road which has been in a huge mess with chaotic one-way traffic owing to Metro Rail construction. No chance of the marathon anywhere nearby.

    Col, I am not sure if you can read Tamil. How have you interpreted ranger's Commwnt? If you ask me, sorry, I won't be able to answer. Go by past experience as you have been together at many gatherings.

    1. Col_Gopinath8 November 2017 at 10:24

      I can guess a few letters of Tamil. I read the second word as VEG so I presumed Ranger meant NON VEG.
      Now that you ask I wonder if he meant 'Naan Veg' meaning 'I am veg'?
