Now that Delhi is warming up, the damnable second fan on my MacBook Pro has decided to cop out again. How did I put up with it in Bangalore?
Sheesh. Police came at 9:55pm to close down the rather sparsely attended Eastwind festival in Delhi; the Midival Punditz had just got going!

Pfft, Barclays India (like all the other banks) charge ~£5 for a withdrawal on my Barclays UK card. Except Deutsche Bank, who don’t.
The best feedback email ever: “I may be needing technical assistance.” (and nothing else)

Orchestra Baobab and Bill Bailey at The Big Chill Eastnor in Aug! Dang I want to go! Maybe I just have to wait for Goa. http://bigchill.net/
