Check the bag and the Tata Indicom WLL phone. The guy is a mobile STD/ISD PCO. People who don’t have mobile phone can use his phone to call home/friends in the train. This is what I call Innovation. I think the business model will work. Many Indian train stations don’t have PCO booths and even if they have, usually they will be heavily crowded. With mobile PCO why worry about standing in the line?

When Matty floated this idea of Ooty I was in two minds. My image of Ooty had lots of newly married couples or families with lots of kids. I don’t have problem with families or couples. But they don’t fit into my idea of vacation at hill station. Matty did an excellent job in finding Sherlock. But it was full; but then the same group had another place called Desitny.

We left pretty early. All of us know Mysore road inch by Inch. With in no time Vinay had crossed Mysore and we were on our way to Ooty. Once we reached the border of Karnataka; we knew we were in Jungle. It was cool, silent and amazing. I and MK got down from the car and jogged for about a kilometer or two. And then we spotted this deer; but my cam has only 3X zoom. All I got was this picture.
