After losing The Hub I have become a srt of "deaddicted" to THC!!! Besides, I have grown restless and keep camping at my sons' houses in Chennai and Bangalore preferring their places to my Madurai!And am sinking into a sort of senility engaging myself with trivial stuff in Facebook and Whatsapp! I do not read The Hindu regularly! Like Lamb said in his essay that he does not like anything new I too am not pleased to see the changes in the paper's cwd section! Alas! Answers in the same page too! Atrocious it seems to me! Life's stream is taking surprising, unexpected turns and I am content to go with the current! Half-a-century old school friend have formed an active group and we are doing strange undreamt of things! We went on a trip to Singapore a few months back and have planned a trip to Trivandrum next month. In this fast-paced I gasp to keep abreast of the new trends and lifestyles! Trying to enjoy life in my own peculiar way!!! Never forgot our THC clan here. How can I? Only too lazy to drop a line! Very heartening to know neither I nor my monkey are forgotten by you! pavalamani pragasamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07849088346239731755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-54755109439085920632017-01-03T18:36:08.110+05:302017-01-03T18:36:08.110+05:30+1+1VMA Nairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02195152250121457237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-82467496854084592322017-01-03T15:58:14.350+05:302017-01-03T15:58:14.350+05:30That's an excellent suggestionThat's an excellent suggestion Kishorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18398234335975124266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-33031007876304994802017-01-03T11:53:10.629+05:302017-01-03T11:53:10.629+05:30He he..miss seeing her monkey!He he..miss seeing her monkey!Vasanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032858551414707310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-91411645902784229252017-01-03T11:49:26.897+05:302017-01-03T11:49:26.897+05:30+1.
