Preparations for the meeting include putting up party flags, buntings, vinyl cutouts, posters, coloured lights and anything else that the local unit can think up. Thankfully, I did not get stuck due to such a meeting of the DMK (the party ruling the state of Tamil Nadu, of which Chennai is the capital) that happened on Monday. Managed to take this photo of the preparations a day ahead - the Music Academy flyover on Radhakrishnan Salai being lined with party flags!
Am away from Chennai for a few days - will back on Sunday, after a short visit to Dubai. But will keep this going, hopefully without having to resort to 'Schedule Post' option

... and it was MK's b'day y'day too .... the flags might be for that too ....
Strange how there were no loudspekers in/around gopalapuram. Maybe they wud have disturbed Mr.Karunanidhi's peace?
>> Ram>> Quite likely; he did say that the b'day was not to be celebrated, though.
>> CB>> Actually there were no loudspeakers anywhere - some consideration is being shown??
oh? i counted 3 ear-drum shatterin pieces on my way to Lloyd's road boss.
>> CB>> Oh, ok. Rather you than me :D

These celebrations for various reasons have become routine affairs that they dont distract us that much. They are part of our chennai life.
