Wow, seems like the Pondy Fever is catching up.. Lets plan a trip again guys.. Our Pondy man SB where are you..?

I think Saturday afternoon will be really busy, but hey, people have jobs so there's not much that can be done about that.

It is also a regular truth of CTC expos that a lot of exhibitors just don't bother with the first day, and many have packed up and left before the last: if there is one weekend that they expect to be busy, that is what they aim for. It is very unprofessional to be setting up or absent when the show is already open to the public, and organisers should just ban anyone who's stall is not ready at opening time --- but take their money anyway. It is far from cheap, exhibiting there.

I think I'll take a look on Friday, but might pop back Saturday afternoon to see if I can spot you guys --- or to see if you spot me, as I'm the newcomer to the group.

(There's electrical goods exhibition too; I'll be taking a look at that as well)

Whats the point. You guys will never get past Pondy. Having said that, why stop at Goa, we can do bombay.

John, for some reason, the second half of your statement seems encrypted. Wonder what you said.

You need to take a break from Kerala!

Went to Chennai Trade Centre this afternoon.

My wife is due to become a grandmother any minute so I don't think I'll be back there tomorrow. Linear, City, Jetta and Passat, i20 all there to feast your eyes on. Enjoy

neoranjit · 17th January 2009, 02:59

neoranjit · 17th January 2009, 05:56
