After 3 long days of rain, Finally the children had time to play.




The first time I saw that I was under the impression that these are cable TV wires, then realized that they are power lines to all those individual huts running criss cross. check out the last photo, some of the huts have water been logging on their sides, yeah they are living in water logging areas, hope you understood what I am trying to convey.
hey, I didn't say that
I believe Chennai's current strength of ladies traveling by train is low. There was talk on the Daily Newspaper that the Tambaram – Beach section will have 3 compartments for ladies and the rest common. I serious suggest that the same could be followed on the Avadi -Beach – Velachery section. I see women are hardly seated in the compartments. Imagine one more regular train on this section will be sure boost for passengers like me.
Ladies no offense meant.Posted via email from Chennai

Drunken Man sleeping on MRTS Train

Drunken Man sleeping on MRTS Train
It is very common scene in Chennai MRTS, in spite of a written communication on the sides of the entrance cum exit, people occupy the area and make other co passengers uneasy, imagine during rush hours where people want to reach their office in time, because of these dumb people neither the crowd could easily enter or exit the cabin. The worst part is they don’t care for fellow passengers.
I am not even sure whether the drunken man on this photo carries a valid ticket. By the way there is valid message which says drunken travel could attract fine and punishment.
Check out the photos below, The Symbol almost says U turn unless you go really close you will be shocked to know that it states “No U turn”
Shouldn’t the Inverted U Symbol have a cross to denote No U turn

Displays a U turn from a long distance

Oh No, It say no U turn

The second line should have contained this word “parcel”. This sakthi store is at villivakkam, Annachi is a very friendly guy, but cannot help you with delivery, only parcel.

Click on the Photos for a larger version. Enjoy the slice of velachery, chennai taken at different periods of time. So I keep varying about the subject. So kindly bear with me.
Topic 1:
From Vijaynagar bus stand to Velachery Railway station you will be amused to see the number of shops propping up on a day today basis, after the railway station started to function.




Where is the platform?
Remembering to story of hoarding in Chennai, which added some distractions and vivid colors, Currently helping us to get some cool breeze. I am wondering what happened to the people who were involved in that business. After many years of livelihood a simple rule just took away their work.
I wish the same shouldn’t happen to the vendors of velachery. Either follow rules so that they are not affected after years.
By the way, I Wonder these shop keepers pay the tax and if they did, does it reach the right authorities of the Government or Chennai Corporation. End of the day, people complain about IT professionals and the salaried people who pay the tax, for all the rise in price etc etc. Have we ever worried about the tax payers.
Topic 2:
People can’t control and take a leak here, near Sutherland technologies pavement. You need to have blocked nose to walk on this area of pavement. There is no public toilet around in this huge stretch.
Parking right under the no parking zone is actually fun.
Topic 3:
Irony is about these Auto Drivers who park the autos on the pavement or sometimes they even ride on the opposite side of the road, they will even give you a jolt by honkingĀ and even give you a bewildered look while they pass by.

And some times you will find the lawman very much following the rules.
